This category proposal has already been put forward but unfortunately I cannot find the link for it. It hasn't already been established as a category has it?

I suggested this some time ago in the form of a site where people could also go fossick for gold - "Gold Digs site" it was called and nobody seemed interested.

cough!!

ooops sorry - I see it has already been created under Natural Places!

How about hot pools or hotsprings that have a natural /volcanic origin. Will need to stipulate in this category whether they are able to be used for bathing/swimming purposes. Ideas!!

I say 2 thumbs up for this - but yeah casinos would have to be exempted!

category already exists for this: http://www.Waymarking.com/waymarks/default...fb-e16a3ab6ad24

Even Iraq has 61. Possibly mostly put there by the invading forces! OOOoopppss - who said that!

9730 caches for the United Kingdom from what I can gather.

16875 caches for Canada as of the same date.

1886 caches in New Zealand as of 13th March 2006.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Yeah thanks for the suggestions there guys - I found I could 'shift' highlight the contents from one file and cut and drop them into another whereas i had been trying to 'click' and drag them - whole thing is still a pain , i wish when you download them you could just drop them into one file folder and not have to then consolidate them. Never mind - we don't live in a perfect world.

What an absolutely brilliant thread - we need more of this sort of thing! I wanted to post a pic of my best little geocaching buddy but I am one of these morons who hasn't been able to figure out how you actually post the pic on the thread like has been done - so here is the link: http://img.Groundspeak.com/cache/975b7d2f-...5eb6005271e.jpg

This has me a bit stumped - but I am intending to do a trip from Saskatchewan, Canada to British Columbia (for the purpose of playing in the snow primarily) but along the way planned on locating quite a few geocaches. After the rigamarole of determining which ones I am most likely to do in view of the route taken I then proceeded to download them as LOC files and then upload them to my GPS using 'Easy GPS'. My question is this - because I am downloading caches over a long distance it seems I have to download one or 2 that may be on the same page and then go on to another page and download more as a separate LOC file and so on and so on. Is there anyway that when I download a couple of caches, I can then download more to go into that same file and have one file with all the caches. As it was I ended up with 19 different files that had anything from 1 to 5 geocaches/waypoints in each. It wasn't that bad but I thought there must surely be a way to put all these waypoints into one file so that i can then upload to my GPS in one go surely! Are you able to understand and see my problem and is there a solution to it. Any suggestions appreciated.

I'll bet blastoyd is the lasting on this doggies mind - was the dog geocaching when it was violated like this? http://img.Groundspeak.com/user/avatar/dfa...05c22067c6d.jpg

I'll 2nd that!

I sort of proposed this one earlier here: http://forums.Groundspeak.com/GC/index.php?showtopic=122119 but was thinking of landmarks etc of any famous explorers and their expeditions - one thumb up for this proposal from me, but 2 thumbs for a category that encorporates explorers/pioneers generally.

I like the idea of this category - I would hope it gets recognized - but I also would endorse what BruceS has said in the previous post about specifics of the lake - eg boat ramps , access etc. Thumbs up for this one.

yeah why not - thumbs up for this one!

Nausea, heartburn, upset stomach, indigestion, Diarrhoea - hey Pepto Bismal!!!

I'm surprised this category has not already been listed - it should be!!!

Judging from the original post of this thread - the husband may well have good reason to choose caching over a lay!

chstress's last post makes for interesting reading and I can certainly see the point of view he is approaching this from and from this perspective it all seems quite viable. My issue with this though would be: that of the grafitti that is considered legit and of some historic value - that would make up , what? say 10 percent of the grafitti around. Maybe someone could be more concise on that figure - but for arguements sake lets say it is approx 10%. Then that leaves about 90% or so of grafitti as established as vandalism . I'm quite certain that if entries start making it into this category - I would wager an arm and a leg that the grafitti listed will not be only of that 10% section. I guess I won't be able to prove otherwise but lets face it - the larger percentage of grafitti is unlawful - is it not??? It stands therefore that a considerable amount of submissions made to this category will fall under the 90% section and what will the category owner be able to do to prove otherwise or how will he truely be able to establish the waymarked grafitti as lawful and permissable? And again I say - why could that 10% or however much is legit have not gone into the Murals Category and be labelled as such to take the stigma away from what 'Grafitti' harbours. I started this thread hoping that at least Groundspeak could come up with some sensible vindication for creating this category or at least give some viable defense on the issue, but as it seems so far they either feel they don't need to or they really don't give a toss!

Aussie doesn't have volcanoes but they do bend their own bananas while singing Waltzing Matilda at the same time as they are trying to make a Dingo puke up a baby to the background sound of Kookaburras and crushed cockroaches while hallucinating after licking Cane Toads - but all that aside , I give this category thumbs up. No offence Ocker!

I guess we will see in time then won't we. And i believe that giving tagging/grafitti any recognition (such as giving it a categorization as a waymark) is in that sense, promoting it. People unlawfully tag and paint junk on building , fences etc so people will see it and get attention drawn to it - by giving it a category on Waymarking - this is just another means of doing that very thing!
