When reading posts here like "seperating the wheat from the chaff..." and receiving emails from cache users saying "Hi, I realise that you are are fairly new to geocaching with only 30ish finds but people put a lot of time and effort into their caches some more than others admittedly, so if you could acknowledge this effort with something a bit more than "TFTC" we would appreciate it thanks." It is elitists like you who are ruining the game . It is supposed to be fun. Players don't have to write anything more that TFTC. There could be any number of reasons why someone writes that. Language restrictions, limited English skills, difficulty reading, time restrictions... a thank you is a thank you. Whatever form it comes in. I paid for the app. I rarely use it. It sucks to hear people bagging users like me out blaming lost or damaged caches on us. I appreciate the fact that people go to the trouble of hiding the apps but why are you doing it? For fun so that many can smile when they find your cache, so you can brighten their days, or for gratification? So that all your geocaching friends will thing you are awesome and give you pats on the back? Maybe the problem is the way you perceive the game. Im sure some of you are capaple of making a game that would suit your needs better.
