+JohnnyVegas Posted August 12, 2005 Share Posted August 12, 2005 It's not my fault My girl freind makes me use them Even when I cache alone Quote Link to comment
+edscott Posted August 12, 2005 Share Posted August 12, 2005 Lately I've noticed people choose to put hint information in their logs... "grate cache" it's, duh, on a basement grate on an old building. Wouldn't depend on it... with the spelling often seen here [] Quote Link to comment
+Harry Dolphin Posted August 13, 2005 Share Posted August 13, 2005 I'm too lazy to decrypt hints in the field. They're on my print out. After searching a bit, I will resort to them. Sometimes they're useful; sometimes not. What I find frustrating is the ones that do not have hints. After an hour of searching, we just have to give up. Oh, well. Quote Link to comment
+ATMA Posted August 13, 2005 Share Posted August 13, 2005 Rarely. I like the sport of going everywhere the cache isnt. Thorns are my friend! Seriously, I dont want any hints. Quote Link to comment
+Alan2 Posted August 13, 2005 Share Posted August 13, 2005 Ticks are a big problem where I cache. I like to get in and get out and not spend time traipsing through bushes and grasses where they hang out. So I use hints early and frequently. Quote Link to comment
+crazyone Posted August 13, 2005 Share Posted August 13, 2005 I use hints all the time especially in an area where my gpsr acts up in has me running in circle and also read logs of other cachers to see what to expect or the kind of problems their having Quote Link to comment
+Thrak Posted August 16, 2005 Share Posted August 16, 2005 If I think I need help I'll definitely use the hint. (I'm new so I tend to need it more often than not. ) I use a Palm Vx and, although I don't use Cachemate, I do use Plucker. The web pages load into the Palm nicely with the hint still encrypted. If I want to read it I can just tap on it to decrypt it there in the field. Quote Link to comment
+Wabsrck Posted August 17, 2005 Share Posted August 17, 2005 I've found that caches that I need the hints for don't have them. Quote Link to comment
