Just wondering if the tactic of placing TB's/coins, into an archived cache, is considered a faux pas, or an acceptable tactic to skirt that annoying 14 day reminder from Groundspeak. I've noticed numerous cachers using this ploy, mostly for their own TB's and coins, yet some that include those very treasured and desirable Jeeps, and various other milestone coins.
I'm guilty of this tactic, as in my local area, there are those pesky micros/nano caches, and caches misstated as to size...also, the archived cache I use is quite near to my abode, so those added miles reflect actual miles traveled between caches. I recently cleaned this inventory out, while attending an Event Cache, except for one coin, which I’m planning to take a picture by its name sake, plus its goal is to stay with in a certain area, which banned GeoCaching. When I find an appropriate cache container, I retrieve a TB from my archived cache then drop it into these appropriate cache containers. Thus far only one TB owner took exception to this procedure.
I'd like to post this as a poll question, yet this being my first post, I may not have earned that feature yet, or I simply can’t see it...

I feel that once the TB's/coins are released, I don't own them, I'm sharing the experience via the logs into and out of caches.
