This whole idea could and should be left to die. It does not foster friendly feelings amongst anyone. I have no desire to make a person move their cache. I have no desire to have it removed even if I could. I have no desire to be the guy that does that. Most importantly, I have no desire to make a friend or enemy of a reviewer. The world is large and there are plenty of places to place caches. Sure... your favorite spot might be gone but hey... it might have been their favorite spot also. or maybe they just had a micro to put in a spruce tree... such is life.

That's what I saw also. And then people read into things.

See... this is why I am not a moderator... (not that I want to be). Thanks for clearing that up. For every angle I see there are more I don't see. This is why I am only semi-good at poker.

LPC's are the way to avoid these things...

Just hide a badly placed cache with an x-girlfriends phone number on it and watch the hilarity ensue.

Not trying to be argumentative here but does that mean that all people are allowed to say is "no, it is not appropriate swag" without giving a reason why? They surely shouldn't say "yes, it is appropriate swag" because Groundspeak has said it isn't.

Darn you BD! This is about the 3rd time you have made me cook Bacon at 2:00 AM!

Holy Necro... is this reply to old post day? did I miss a note? I always feel left out...

Yes but no.

Nail polish remover will remove the markings.

That`s unfortunate. Would you like to borrow my mother? Fathers are another issue entirely but I had no use for my father while he was alive and do not mourn his death. We all have issues. Nah, I don't need to borrow a mom. I'm doing good without one. Saved a ton of money in the last couple decades by not buying gifts for Mother's day. W00T! Ditto for fathers day ^5

I agree with everyone! But here is my dilemma and I'm sure I am not the only one. I live in a city of a million people... I live downtown in that city. I live in a 1000 square foot condo on the 15th floor. I drive a small SUV. A ladder is not common to me or the people I know. Even if it was... it would not fit in my car. Sure... i might be able to borrow a 20ft ladder from someone (a ridiculous idea) but why would I ? and how would I get it to the cache? A ridiculously long ladder or canoe.. Kayak or 300 ft of rope are not common things. I have two 1000 watt generators in my girlfriends garage... does that mean everyone should? They (one does) get much more use than a 20ft ladder. I have to disagree with you Brian.. but if you ever need to borrow a generator...

Neither! Its an AC-130. And sorry for the other funny photo... the black thing is a lighter, stuck to the magnet to show how strong it is. Nice fleet... More of a chopper guy but nice...

That could be a whole nuther thread...

I just try to bring my wife with me. She is the planner that brings the stuff.

Yes she did. My mother almost died last year and it was a real eye opener for me. I never was much of a mamas boy but always loved my mother. Her almost dying made me think of how much life would be different without her in my life. It would not be something I would enjoy. I now try to spend more time with her. I am have much more patience with her than before. I even hid a cache with her and listed her as the co-hider. GC274KT

Just remember not to use samples of drugs or left over drugs from your deceased fathers medicine cabinet for swag!

I submitted a cache listing last night at about 9:00 PM. When I got up for work this morning at 8:00 AM I checked my email and saw it was approved. I checked it on my iPhone at around noon and it already had 2 finds!

Radio Shack. $19.99

That was helpful how?

Pretty cool idea. I like it.

Take a DEEEP breath in......(hold it).... Now Exhale.... Good. Repeat that several times. So you have some ammo cans that don't have a seal. OK. We get it. I was in the Marines. I was an 0331 Machine gunner and then got certified to drive explosives. EVERY ammo can that I personally dealt with HAD a seal. Does this mean that EVERY ammo can in the world has one? No. From now on read posts from this thread as Ammo Cans make great Caches Containers. (I'd be careful dealing with an explosives/ammunition container that didn't have a seal, moisture can destabilize explosives very fast!) I know that it can destabilize the explosives depending on conditions. I worked around a lot of different kinds of explosives. From cads, to flares, to 20mm rounds, to stuff I dont really talk about. Loved being an Ordie. I had to get my explosive drivers license also. Actually stopped on a freeway once for someone tailgating me while transporting. Some people just arent that smart when it comes to explosives. Also I wasnt trying to be mean, its just that 2 earlier posters said that Ammo Cans do have seals. If they had said that the ones they have run into, or the ones that they have seen have them I would not have said what I said. I was just correcting a mistake. If you or anyone else took offense I do apologize it was not my intention. Like I said I was correcting a comment. Also none that we were given from base weps ever had seals on them. Maybe its a Navy thing. Not trying to argue with you or anything of the sort but why would they not have a gasket to seal them? It just seems odd to me.

Hey! I resent that! I made my mother a BBQ'd Salmon with sliced potatoes in foil. I will admit however that I use my oven to hide dirty dishes in...

So sad to see individuals contradict themselves within one post. This could be fun.....I'll bite....Especially as a lit. major. Show me, oh wise one, where my contradiction was. Please, don't give me a rambling 10 paragraph speech explaining how mars and venus are aligned on the moon in may next year so I couldn't possibly believe that I hate the idea of PM caches... A statement of enjoyment then a statement that shows dejection. That might be tough to grasp so I'll point out a different contradiction. The only way GS could prevent most Premium Members from getting a Basic member account is by charging for a basic account and requiring no two accounts to use the same CC number, billing address or paypal account. There by negating your "Geocaching started out for free...and it should remain that way" ------------------------ Then we have the simple fact that any CO that deletes a legit BM log simply because it was on a PMOC, is wrong. Spaz all ya want, it doesn't change facts. Almost everyone who has any time in the forum knows that they cant delete unless there is a lack of signature. Most of those that don't come to the forum end up learning by way of reinstatement that they can't delete them. Those that don't learn, end up getting them selves in trouble with TPTB. As for your dejected statement, I wish that you could make one too and I lived near you so that you would find out that the simple truths would hold in both directions. Just because a PM would have to work a little harder to find a BMOC doesn't mean they are being denied access to it or the smiley provided as currently holds with BM finding PMOC. Your post did not reply to his question whatsoever.
