Ah !! a voice of reason .. thank you

Move my thread but don't reply to my topic .... this is what I don't get.

My point is that I have and I get no response. This cache will take a lot of work for me to set it up and I am happy and excited to do so. But I need to know if it is going to be allowed before I bother and I can't get any response from the people that will be responsible for approving it. How can I expect to get it approved if they wont even respond to my inquirey??

This was my original post in the "Getting Started" forum: http://forums.Groundspeak.com/GC/index.php?showtopic=105475 I have been a paid member since Sept, 2004 and can't get a response from any administrator. I believe at this point I deserve a response in some form one way or the other. I though this game was open to everyone. If that's not the case, then let me know and as I said, I will go away. I don't want to go away however, I want to play. CapnJackSparrow

I want to play the game! I want to make a cache hide! I want my hide to be exciting, historic, and memorable as well as fun! I run into cliques! If you don't want me to play the game with you, tell me truthfully and I will go away. Before that happens though, I need to know why? CapnJackSparrow

I was wondering if anyone could point me in the direction of a reviewer for the Rochester, NY area. I have a cache idea which I posted in the "Getting Started" forum that seems to me should be allowed, but some cachers seem to have doubts. I tried emailing New York Admin but got no response. This cache, if allowed, is going to take some time to set up and I would like to get it going as soon as possible. Here is a link to my original post: http://forums.Groundspeak.com/GC/index.php?showtopic=105475 Thank You in advance for any help you can give me, CapnJackSparrow

Sounds like a cookie problem to me. Trying clearing your cookies and start fresh ???

Thank You all for valuable input. I have emailed New York Admin and am waiting for a reply. I think from your responses it looks like a go, but I'll wait to be sure. Thanks Again, CapnJackSparrow

I have seen nothing that says my cache does not conform to regulations. So I willl continue with my idea.Seek soon and enjoy!!

Sorry to be bumping this post so soon , but I am looking for reviewer attention. Let me explain. If you have read any of my previous posts, you know that I started working on this cache almost a year ago. Since that time I have been temporarily disabled with disk problems in my neck. I am now able to go out caching again for the first time since my accident and am very excited to be able to get my cache going. I seriously need to know if my idea is acceptable because in order to make it work I need to build the web site. This will take some time and I want to get my cache listed as soon as possible. Please let me know if this is OK. I have read all the guidelines and find no real problems with my idea, but I am looking for the GeoCaching communities blessings before I go forward with it. Again, Thank you in advance for your input, CapnJackSparrow

Thanks WH. No the final cache hide will definately not violate the guidelines.

I'm getting ready to hide my first cache and i'ts going to be a good one. First to Find prize is a $100.00 gift card to Dick's Sporting Goods. It was originally going to be a Garmin eTrex, but I decided to let the FTF decide what they wanted. My question is: Would I be allowed to make a multi-cache where dates that historic buildings were constructed would need to be gathered and entered into a hidden web address to find the final coordinates? Coordinates for all locations would be listed in the cache listing but each one would need to be visited to find the dates to enter into the web address for the final coords. ie: www.webpage/xxxx/xxxx/xxxx. Please help, I am very excited to get started. Thank you, CapnJackSparrow

Top post on my screen says: I use an antique version of a program called Micrografx Designer. I have version 4.1 Tech Edition from eons ago, but it still works so.... The "Open Office" suite has a vector editor as part of that package. I have it installed, and should see how well this works on a project some day. I just cut and pasted that from the post.

I use Adobe Illustrator Anyone care to guess how my post got changed or combined with someone elses???? The quote shown here is what I posted. If you look at the thread above, it is completely different.

Here's a larger image. Let me know where to send the vector art.

Here's the whole story as told in my first log: Hey, my friends and I were exploring GHSP and found your cache totally by accident. Between the three of us we have about 90 years of camping and hiking experience and none of us had ever heard of geocaching. Now, two days later, I am a payed member of geocaching.com and already bought my first GPS. Needless to say we were very impressed with the game and excited to start playing. We weren't expecting to find treasure that day so we had very little to leave. I did have a credit card size magnifying glass in my wallet, so I left that and we took a piece of paper to write down the web address and signed the log book. We also hid the cache a little better than we found it to avoid someone else stumbling across it by accident. Thank you for accidentally turning us on to this real cool game, can't wait to start playing for real.

Thah has to be sarcasm. This thread was "threadjacked" a long time ago.

Very cool hides! I will be looking for yours also. My favorite place in the world is the Adirondack region of Upstate New York.

Truth is, I have a lot to lose. I just have no fear of losing it because I am strong enough, smart enough, and responsible enough not to lose it. The information I posted (other than email address) can be found on the internet or in my local phone book. If any a-hole chooses to try to use this info to their advantage, they will be sorry. This I guarentee! edit: please excuse spelling

Sry, what does that mean?

Concern noted and appreciated, but I have nothing to hide and I have no fear! Do your worst and I will survive! Edit: Terror only works on those that can be terrorized.

That was suggested and I thought it was a great idea. I have 5 unactivater TB's and I will add at least two to the cache. Also, we have a Chinese import store at our local mall and I found some coins there that will also be added. Funny thing is I probably paid about 10 times there actual value but it's all for the sport.
