+Lil Devil Posted April 4, 2010 Share Posted April 4, 2010 If you are at the restaurant, will you accept poor food when you have to pay for it? McDonald's has built an entire multi-national corporation based on people paying for lousy food. Link to comment
+marwillCZ Posted April 4, 2010 Share Posted April 4, 2010 ... All this and other changes are fine, but me, as a paying member, it is totally corrupting what I am expecting from payed service. Why should I notice any negative changes when I expect all will run smoothly? If you are at the restaurant, will you accept poor food when you have to pay for it? One of the worst possible comparisons. There could be one or two dozen competing restaurants nearby that you could patronize instead. Geocaching has no practical competition. Yet we still get to complain when they fumble the ball (it does make me feel better to complain occasionally), and they get it mostly fixed eventually. You have very few choices here. Pay or not. Play or not. Really? So far I know, I can play even without being PM and have nothing to pay. But I'd be ashamed to want money for something which is not providing service as it should. Sorry, that's the story. Also, what is wrong with the right column again (on the http://www.geocaching.com/my/ page). Why is it so wide? Link to comment

+Cardinal Red Posted April 4, 2010 Share Posted April 4, 2010 You have very few choices here. Pay or not. Play or not. Really? So far I know, I can play even without being PM... Yes you can. Did you notice the period between the choices I listed? I thought that indicated those could be separate options. Link to comment
+Raine Posted April 4, 2010 Share Posted April 4, 2010 Also, what is wrong with the right column again (on the http://www.geocaching.com/my/ page). Why is it so wide? Probably because there's an icon missing for a TB? Since the /my page is unique to you, it's hard to say. Maybe attach a screen shot? -Raine Link to comment
+gpsnini Posted April 5, 2010 Share Posted April 5, 2010 Hi, i have problems with pictures, they didn't wond show on Safari. I had also some problems with the sending the field Notes from the iPhone. Greetings, GPSnini Link to comment
+PeterVZ1 Posted April 5, 2010 Share Posted April 5, 2010 I really hate that I can't decode hints in the field anymore. When I try (using my Palm Centro) to decrypt, I get the message: "TypeError:isString is not a function" Personally, I would rather wait the 20 seconds for the page to reload on my phone, than have to manually de-crypt the hint (since the Key doesn't line up on my phone correctly either and I have to count the letters) Link to comment

Greetings, GPSnini Domo!!! Same here with pictures lately on Safari. Very sloooooow uploading, and also especially when viewing. Sometimes forever to view them. I post at least one picture per find, and have many uploaded. Quite frustrating.

+Team-SK Posted April 6, 2010 Share Posted April 6, 2010 15375Notice re: phasing out browser support Added notice to site masterpages when user visits in IE6 WOW, I was the one crying out loud for you to start phasing out IE6 (here and here) just like any other major influent one on internet and early 2010 you said you had no plan to do so. Glad you changed your mind and hopefully it will be less a nightmare playing in the code for developpers. Great now let's move on with the new generation bowsers! Congrats for the move! Some of use are not in control of the PCs we use and are stuck on IE6. This is a negative change for users such as myself. It would be good if the WAP site was up to it, maybe i could use that...

+Viajero Perdido Posted April 6, 2010 Share Posted April 6, 2010 But, then again, it's not just the upload system.The whole image-related stuff is really slow lately. As mentioned here recently, Groundspeak is migrating to a new server(s) for images because the old one was filling up fast. They told us to expect slow images for a few weeks while the migration happens. If it's no longer accepting image uploads, I guess that means the old server is now full! Link to comment
Rhialto Posted April 6, 2010 Share Posted April 6, 2010 I don't know if it's related or not as it was a long time I haven't looked at additionnal waypoints. I had to check the final waypoint where a cache of mine was to be sure coordinates were correct and I find the "map" link of no use as it does not point to that waypoint coordinates but to the start of it, the published coordonates instead. I tried with another cache and it's the same. The "map" link for any waypoint always show the same thing. Why it does not pin point the location of the waypoint I'm looking at? Link to comment
+JABs Posted April 8, 2010 Share Posted April 8, 2010 Only noticed this since the larst update. But logging in using a non prerium account, when looking at news caches list there was always two google adds in the list. But now they are gone. The second space has a strange spacing but no add. Will screen shot tonight when I get home. Link to comment

So I guess this is normal behavior since nobody else discussed that problem. What's the use of the 'Map' link again? Link to comment

I do think it was discussed before (not after the most recent update, but the infamous "white space" one), but I don't know if it was in this thread, and I haven't heard any more about it.

MnCo Posted April 9, 2010 Share Posted April 9, 2010 Don't know if these two issues have been pointed out yet, but I noticed them today. 1. The email notification of a new cache has the wrong distance and direction from my home coordinates. A notice that arrived this evening, detailed a cache 3.5Km SW of my home coordinates, but it is actually 1Km NW. It is correct when I view the page or do a search, it only seems to be incorrect in the email. 2. There seems to be a problem with image captions. If I view an image in a log, and then view an image from the gallery, the caption from the log always appears under the image, even if that image has a caption of it's own. If I refresh the page and go directly to one of cache images (the ones uploaded by the owner), the don't show a caption under the image, even if they have one. If I then click on another one of the log images, that caption shows and then also appears with any subsequent cache image. If I view a different log image, then that caption does show, and then that caption continues to show for subsequent images. I hope that makes sense. Link to comment
