What Happens To Caches Placed By Now Banned Members

[FallenFaery]

We have a local cacher who was banned probably close to a year ago now. What is suppose to happen to his caches? As soon as he was banned they were disabled and sit that way. Occasionally they get logged but mostly they are just taking up much useable space.

If the caches are disabled and have been for sometime, a reviewer should usually flag them for archival if they aren't reactivated after a reasonable period of time.

 

So, I would say that if they are still disabled (and it's truly been that way for over a year), that you either propose adopting any of the caches which are of interest to you or you post a "should be archived" note on the cache so it'll come to the reviewers attention and be removed.

And someone needs to retrieve the cache if it's still in place

If I'm thinking of the same person, I believe he listed them on another site.

Generally, you can get banned for being a total tool in the forums. I suppose that if your actions in real life reflected poorly on the game, you could also get banned.

Corrupting the young will do it too.

Talk about Fight Club.

In this case this individual was very abusive and verbally attacking individuals in emails through gc.com. it wasn't a positive situation.

Is it possiable for someone to contact him?(do emails still go to banned people??)

Perhaps they totally quit geocaching and the caches are slowly becoming litter, and someone adopting or removing would be good.

Or maybe they just geocaching elsewhere and put their caches on another listing site, in which case removing them would be like stealing or trashing, and that would be bad.

This is the problem when people don't explain their intentions, and leave it to others to come up conclustions (of course their defense, if they're banned they very can't post to the caches explain what will happen to them)

Only if they are not listed on another site.

They never really say.
