Gee this is sad. I think that perhaps the reviewer in question here has taken things a little bit too far. I have done one of the archived caches and yes I suppose that the "object or property has been modified" slightly to accommodate the hide, but there is no way that you could say that the modification is "defacing or destoying" public or private property which is the main objective of the guideline. This was a seriously good cache I don't think it deserved this treatment.
Surely the intention of the guideline "Geocache placements do not deface or destroy public or private property" was to ensure that serious and detramental damage was not done in order to hide a cache. If a modification has been done that hasn't defaced or destroyed property then I think sense should prevail and the cache should be allowed to stay.
I'm sure many would argue that rules are rules and in this case they are explicit, but I don't think that the strict application of them is going to make geocaching a better passtime.
