This is very disappointing. Benchmarking is a huge part of my geocaching game and it adds a bonus to log one when I log a cache. Its a side part of the game that I have been enjoying for many years. Just because not everyone does it all of the time is no reason to get rid of it. There are certain caches that I don't get but I don't think you should get rid of them. The great thing about geocaching is there is something for everyone. Not everyone likes geocoins, but I don't think geocaching is going to get rid of them. It's also disappointing that geocaching continues to support Waymarking and I NEVER HEAR ANYONE TALKING ABOUT IT. NEVER HAS IT COME UP IN ANY GEOCACHING CONVERSATION OR LOGS. Get rid of that, I've looked at the website before and there are many many waymarks that I have never been logged. Why not get rid of Waymarking and update the benchmarking database. I'm less than 100 benchmarks away from hitting 1000 and I may now not reach that goal. I have a friend that says Groundspeak is always taking away things we don't want and giving us things we don't want. I'm beginning to believe that more and more everyday. Please reconsider.

I had four of my logs deleted by a CO because he didn't like my logs saying they were negative and he wouldn't allow it on his caches pages. I wasn't negative, I was truthful. I found the cache in a different location then what the hint suggested. I logged it over and said TFTC. He has 150ish finds with almost as many hides, I have over 9000 finds and have owned about 80 something caches. I think I know what I'm doing in comparison.

Of course its entirely possible that they deleted the log even before you started this thread. BlueMoth is my friend and caching partner in crime. She did delete it right after she logged a note and not a find. Her log says she will have to see if she qualifies when she gets home. That tells me she meant to click on the challenge cache she was trying to do. And I told her not to do that person's challenge anymore because they are stupid. And see where we wind up.

It was out of jest what I was saying and it kind of proves my point. But if makes you happy to armchair my caches, knock yourself out. I've got one that I think is an armchair cache, and it's less than a quarter mile from where I live. But it's not that important to me.

To some of us, it's the principle of the thing. If they lie about this, society is the lesser because there's one more liar in it. Yes, this is just a hobby. If you don't care about signatures in the logs, maybe I'll armchair log your caches. ETA: The OP was asking what to do about it. That's a valid reason to start a forum topic.

Well, is it really that important to complain about whether or not someone found a container with a piece of paper in? I mean I'm sure this tops the civil unrest in Missouri or the Ebola outbreak in Western Africa to the extent that a forum topic needed to be created about it.

and I forgot one more for Oregon Scenic Yahats (http://coord.info/GC4FTEN)

It can be purchased.

Thanks! Yawn Man stop that. Yawn! Now you have me yawning. You can also try Michael's if you aren't finished putting out your LBs

Nothing was in my mailbox today, the same for the past few months. I am part of the Geoswag coin and pin club and they haven't shipped coins for several months and don't answer emails or facebook messages. Anyone else have the same problem?

Oregon I was lucky and picked up the last 2011 Estacada coin today so that is over. The CCHS challenge is over with Sandy, Oregon still has ten 2012 coins left Willamette Falls still has 2012 coins as well
