Growing tired of the constant bickering, fingerpointing, and arguments over strips of paper in a plastic container, I am hereby banning myself from the forums for the period of one week. Maybe you guys can find something constructive or positive or even unique to discuss while I am gone. :huh:

 

I think, instead, I'll go find a few caches and not piss and moan or whine and complain about anything or anyone.

 

The sport is fun, if you let it be.

 

cya.

Why start a thread that you aren't going to watch or read for the next week? Are we supposed to go running after you to make you stop and come back?

 

I'm so confused.

 

I think he was expecting something to the effect of: "Don't let the door hit you in the <bum> on the way out."

It's part of the mystique of a geocide. Does he really come back to read the forums, but not respond? Does he really not come back for a week? Will he come back and post before his official week is up, thereby failing in the geocide attempt? The mystery and intrigue of a geocide knows no limits. That's why we're all hanging on the edge of our seats, hitting that refresh button to see what happens next...

 

or not. ;)

Ok, but what kind of geocaching will you be doing? The real kind, where you find the container and sign the log, or the new kind, where the owner gives you permission to lie for trying really hard? ;)

How long has it been Criminal? How long have you been beating this drum? Maybe posts like yours is the reason he's taking a week off.

Reading the forums just goes to show most people never really get past Kindergarten. They get mad because nobody else wants to play the game their way or if you post a question you have to wade through 15 posts calling ou names for being an idiot before you get a decent answer.

 

Pretty much the same on most forums I have frequented. Joking around and teasing your buds is one thing; name calling, griping and whining is another.

Psst, look about 15 posts above you. :blink:

 

And I don't think Jhawk is in time out because criminal caught him cheating, but I could be wrong about that. :blink: I think he's also tired of that tune. But we all have our drums to beat to make ourselves feel good. :blink:

 

I wondered about the context of that post, too. I've never seen Jhawk accused of cheating, or even championing any any of the behaviors that generally bring that sort of comment.

Dang, no kidding. Go find a cache, talk to your wife, play with your kid. Move on!

No, I didn't 'catch' anything, I was just making a tongue-in-cheek comment which was found to be offensive apparently. I love the asinine argument about 'playing the game your way' though. Body-checking the first baseman or cheating on your taxes is 'playing the game your way' too, right? There is only one way to geocache.

But given some of the above posts it's wrong to have that kind of opinion, make it known, and stand by it.

Huh? :blink:

 

It's wrong to have an opinion? It's wrong for that opinion to be 'find a cache, sign the log book, get a smiley'? It's wrong to stand by your position?

 

When did this happen? :blink:

I said "Huh?" too, then I figured it was tounge-in-cheek or sarcasm or something.

And thank the gods you are here to tell us the one way. You are the greatest thing to ever happen to geocaching. You, and only you, can save us. We are so lucky to have you.

It’s unbelievable that anyone would have to tell you. Does anyone have to tell you to drive on the right side of the road when you get in your car in the morning? Duh.

I can tell that this was sarcasm. The other comment I still don't get.

 

When are you people going to start using smilies? They are there for your benefit! :blink:

Yes they do. I have my wife leave a Post-it note on the steering wheel just in case I forget.
