And that's the solution: [GS] If you can, going forward, please log your finds the day that you found them even if that means back dating the log. You are correct, this is not in the guidelines, only a request :-) So be it.

To set my baseline of understanding: I consider it ok to log an earth cache/virtual, if i have been there, can produce an adequate photo (if required), AND answer all questions satisfactorily OR the owner approves nonetheless (e.g. because the GPSr is not in the picture). I like it as a means of keeping track where I was. So now what happened. Some EC owner has appealed to GS to delete my EC/ virtual logs of places, I actually have been to, which I bulk logged at the day I answered them - i.e. even after clarifying she thought that I am WAY off. I log with the date I answer the EC/ virtual questions, not with the date I have been there (it would screw up my history of logs and milestones). So as it happened, I logged caches in Hungary, Ireland, Spain, and Turkey on the same day to finish off a series of weekend trips I did earlier - I could have spread them artificially but I figured that that's useless. Now GS contacted me to look at the guideline (which do not state anything about this specific problem) and delete accordingly. I answered truthfully that I have been there, got the ok from the owners and bulk logged them together. Let's see what they reply. Then we got our answer.
