Perhaps NOW is a good time to: 1. Walk AWAY FROM THE COMPUTER. 2. Take a really DEEP BREATH. 3. And think about coming back tomorrow. The above could apply to only one or many of us. "Listen to the land with your heart, it will speak to your soul." kcd

Does that mean TIVO, etc. has got to go? "Listen to the land with your heart, it will speak to your soul." kcd

I can't believe what I've seen happen in these forums in the last 10 minutes. I have seen AND READ both posts from Ed (a.k.a. MWAC). Now they are gone. I have the second post, wish I'd thought to keep the first one. Just goes to show there is censorship and we are NOT allowed to freely express our feelings. I am not sure if I like the way the "GAME" is being played right now. "Listen to the land with your heart, it will speak to your soul." kcd

If they wish to email that person they can do so and ask them to remove it from that cache. The name of the cache will be available. Just not the coordinates. I must admit I was wondering about this. Thanks for the clarification Jeremy. "Listen to the land with your heart, it will speak to your soul." kcd

quote:Originally posted by Jeremy Irish (in another thread) :A poster made a good point, however, that I will add as part of the site. If you prefer not to have the title of Charter Member, you don't have to. You can be anonymous with other "Geocacher" titles. I'll see how soon I can implement this. Sort of like "Anonymous donor." Some people would rather not be labeled. I, however, like my new label. Jeremy Thanks Jeremy! "Listen to the land with your heart, it will speak to your soul." kcd

If there comes a day when I have the OPTION to choose the Geocacher or Charter Member logo for my profile, I'll be one of the first to send in my money. quote: Originally posted by AquaDyne: ...It's free advertising.

We also live in Phoenix and are relative newcomers to the sport (though we've been using a GPSr for a few years now). Caches - We have found 7 and placed 1.

Originally posted by exConn: I honestly am trying to understand what your hang-ups are about a simple little icon. If you don't want one, then don't get one. It's a simple as that. Well, actually it isn't as simple as that. If I choose to become a Charter Member to gain access to the MOcaches, then I'm "titled." Like it or not. All I'm asking for is a choice in the matter. Why knock those who get a "warm fuzzy" out of this simple little thing? I wasn't aware I had ever knocked anyone. If I discuss something with you in the forums, what is next to your name doesn't make me respond any differently. I'm glad to hear you say that. However, I have read posts that have led me to believe that it's the heavy posters that are the most highly regarded, not necessarily the ones who post when they really have something to say. It's my fear the same will happen with the titles since we are not all on the same playing field now. Regardless of the icon, everyone here are fellow Geocachers ... I hope you're right! I hope it continues to be so. I don't like titles (it's a personal thing; if you do, I have no problem with that). Certainly time will tell, I hope my initial bad feelings about this will eventually go away. Right now I'm simply asking for a choice. My apologies if this sounds defensive. I don't intend it.

Originally posted by Wow!: Look at all the bumper stickers and decals we see when driving down the road. If folks like it - that's fine. If floks don't - that's fine, too. I don't have bumper stickers or decals on my car. That's my choice. And I'm not really crazy about the idea of a "bumper sticker" here either. Hopefully there will come a day we'll have a choice as to the "Charter Member" logo. Until then, I'll stick with "Geocacher." "Listen to the land with your heart, it will speak to your soul." kcd
