I guess no. It's only a kind of protection against new members who searched a couple of caches, found something nice and never been seen again. No, didn't know that. Now you know one So basically if you send out a Tb you have to expect that not everyone (but I hope at least someone) give a da*n about the goal, it somehow disappears, or get stolen one day. Sounds fun. But I guess you just have to live with it.

With "Gc" I mean Geocoin. Geocaches can still be accessable for everyone, but as a owner you can choose wether it's premium only or not. So maybe you can have the same options for trackables too, so only premium members can see them and visit or drop them only in premium caches.

The trackable situation is kinda grazy at the moment. I´m relatively new with 78 finds and 8 Tb´s moved so far, but I saw a lot of Tb´s dissappeared, some were logged at a different cache. I write many notes for missing Tb´s (one of them was discovered again after months a couple of hundred kilometers away from the last known location), I saw a cacher who allegedly took a Tb to more than 100 caches in one!!! day, other cachers dip them every 200 meters for weeks or months, a Tb hotel near my hometown with 7 Tb´s in it got compleatly emptied, you name it. I want to send one or two Tb´s out myself, but oh boy. This really makes me wonder, if it´s a good idea to make the Tb´s / Gc´s a premium member only thing.
