+dillboy Posted December 24, 2008 Share Posted December 24, 2008 I have a TB that has been in the hands of a cacher for 2 1/2 months . Am I out of line to be upset that they haven't moved it along. I contacted the user once and they replied that they would "move it along soon" Its been a month since that message. They haven't told me of any intentions that would warrant them holding on to the TB for that long. They also have been caching recently. I would understand if a TB sits in a cache for a while, but this seems unacceptable. Has anyone else had any experiance like this, if so how did you approach the situation. Thank you!!

+TrailGators Posted December 24, 2008 Share Posted December 24, 2008 It happens. Sometimes life gets in the way of geocaching. True, but this is the reason I never take a TB unless I know I can dump it within 2-3 weeks. Quote Link to comment
+Crow-T-Robot Posted December 24, 2008 Share Posted December 24, 2008 True, but this is the reason I never take a TB unless I know I can dump it within 2-3 weeks. I dropped off whatever bugs or coins I had in my possession right after our first snowfall because I figured it would be harder to keep them moving with the winter weather. Since then, I think we've had over a foot and a half more snow, none has melted and my caching has slowed to a crawl. Bruce Quote Link to comment

There's not much you can you about weather besides maybe posting a note on the bug page explaining the circumstances. Quote Link to comment
+Harry Dolphin Posted December 24, 2008 Share Posted December 24, 2008 Yes. You can be upset. But it's not going to make any difference. You reminded the user once. There's not much more you can do. Annoying the bug holder isn't going to do anything. You said Goodbye to the bug when you set it free. Hope for the best! I had a eocoing held for a year before it was moved on. Oh. Well.
