Geocoin and Trackable Minting, Geocoin Reference, Shipping, Activating, Adopting, Shopping, Courtesy, Do's & Don't Guide To Geocoins & FAQs!

[+Eartha]

In an effort to keep the geocoin page clean of too many pinned topics I am making this one thread to link you to the threads you've all asked to be pinned. You can link them from here and respond in them there. If we have another important thread you feel needs to be kept near the top, please send me a PM with the link and I can add it to this thread if needed. This one will be locked and pinned in place of the ones unpinned.

Thank you,

Sellers: To update a thread title, the fastest and best way to do this (and this is ONLY for the geocoin forums) is to click on the "REPORT" button on your first post, and tell us what your title update is. This sends the moderators a link to the correct thread, so they don't have to go look for it, and whichever moderator gets to it first can update the title. Using email for these requests might put you back a few days, if that moderator happens to be gone caching for a few days.
