  1. I was activating a couple geocoins today....One for a friend and one for myself for us to set loose soon.....

     

    I had her acct. up and had already activated her's...I forgot to sign in to my acct. to activate mine so now both coins are in her's! How do we get mine out of her's and in my name.... Dumb move on my part!

  2. I went to an event, discovered many a TB's/coins.....I did this once before but being fairly new still and has been a while - I have forgotten HOW to log the discoveries....

     

    Can someone help before I go nuts this A.M. trying to figure this out! I know it is probably something real simple but am running on NO sleep! LOL

  3. Here is a nice summary of what needs to be done:

     

    Tracking TB's

     

    It also can be found by clicking on "Trackable Items" on the left-column navigation pane on gc.com.

     

    Congratulations on your first TB find! Addicting, isn't it?? :(

     

    YES, it is!!!! we were out for 9 hours!!!!!!!! LOL

  4. thanks! i will not let them spoil it for me....unfortunately i have not been able to get out as much as i would like! am going out tomorrow about 60 miles away from my hometown here....i will not be dealing much around the hometown area, seems they are all fairly close knit and in cohoots with one and other from what i see and read!

     

    they will get nothing from me for sure! i have recently aquired some nice trackables and and going to start releasing soon but not in this town! lol

  5. Sorry I did not explain myself properly inmy first post as I have said, this is all new to me but I am learning and learning more each day by reading and so forth!

     

    As stated there seem to be 3 in particular in the area that I have been watching and I have decided that I will be going OUT of the area from here on out do to caches. :mad: And what caches I do around here will be quick stops only and will be taking and leaving nothing around this area for them... Sad huh.

  6. Something I have noticed where I live....

     

    Someone had left a coin, another went there, said they took coin,left nothing and signed log....

     

    Now- I am all new to this but out of respect and so forth, if you take a coin or anything, are you not suppose to leave another or something in its place?

     

    I have came upon at least 6 different one in the area that this has happened and within the same group of people 3 people.

     

    When I went to a cache and it had something in it, if I took something , I left something - I feel you should leave it in just as good if not better shape than you found it!

     

    So am I doing something wrong or is it the nature of the beast and some just don't play the game the way it is intended?

  7. Hello. If anybody would like to send geocoins to other countries or even other regions of their own country to be released by cachers in that area there is a webpage that can get you in touch with cachers all over the world that have volunteered to release trackable items for other geocachers. I've used it to contact geocachers from all over the U.S. and all over the world and I now have trackables all over the world thanks for this great little web page and the volunteers listed on it. It was originally put together by Aushiker and it is an awesome resource. It's no longer being updated, but it's still a great resource if you want to check it out you can CLICK HERE! If you find it of interest to you you may want to consider book marking it so you can find it in the future if you need it. Have a great week! ;)

     

     

    Thanks! I am still new but this may be eventually of interest so I have bookmarked it.

  8. Paula...welcome to this great game!! I am sure now that you had your first finds.... you got the bug! you are addicted!!! :)

     

    If you find a coin traveller in a cache, or if you own your first coin..... trust me... you will be so addicted!!!!

    See me! I became a geocacher because I fell in love with a strange coin I had seen, and after a search I found that it was the first greek geocoin! when I searched a little I found the game, and... here I am!

    In the forum I found so many great people, I have so fun and I am playing in cointest.... It is so great that I am about to have 4000 posts here!!!! WOW! How did I do that??? From November 2007 till now... 4000 posts????? Hey...whats the record??? :(:):P

     

    The meaning of the frog?? Well... becasue frogs are everywhere! There are frogs in rivers, lakes etc, on land, in the sea (frog fish), there are flying frogs(I think in Java island in Indonesia)....there are even in out TV (Muppet Show.....) I hope you know Kermit!!! :)

     

    So, since frogs are everywhere, the same thing is with GPS technology! you can use it everywhere!

    Hey... you also find geocachers, caches etc....everywhere!!! what I mean by that??? Before I become a geocacher, I used to see tourists in unbelievable places!!! I was always wondering how they found this place etc! Now... when I see a tourist like that... the first thing that passes from my mind is... he is a geocacher!!! :)

     

    Except all that, The frog is a symbol in many cultures! It is a symbol or reicarnation, or luck, fertility, regeneration....

     

    Groundspeak put an antenna on the signal's head to merge the two different ideas of technology and nature into one symbol!

     

    After all... being a geocacher means that you love and protect nature!!! We do not harm nature, we are helping it, cleaning the areas... so... :P

     

    Signal is quite cool! :)

    Ok...being green with an antenna on your head...

    well... he is not an allient and from Mars!!! He is just a Geocacher! :)

     

    take care my friend and once again, WELCOME!!!!! :)

     

     

    LOL, thanks for that explanation & welcome! LOL
