I am leaving geocaching......

[+Road Rabbit]

I'd give this one a 0.5 at best: long winded, self absorbed, didn't call out and/or trash the local reviewers, and never cut off communications. Heck, it didn't even last 48 hours.

 

The best ones are where the geocidee couldn't come back even if they wanted due to being bannated for the methods used in the geocide. I miss the good old days....

Well I'm gonna to go then. And I don't need any of this. I don't need this stuff, and I don't need you. I don't need anything except this.

[picks up an Geocoin]

And that's it and that's the only thing I need, is this. I don't need this or this. Just this Geocoin. And this ammo can, the Geocoin and the ammo can and that's all I need. And this travel bug. The Geocoin, the ammo can, and the travel bug, and that's all I need. And these McToys. The Geocoin, and these McToys, and the travel bug and the geowoodstock t-shirt. And this tupperware. The Geocoin, this ammo can and the travel bug and the tupperware and that's all I need. And that's all I need too. I don't need one other thing, not one - I need this. The ammo can, and the micro, and the travel bug, and the McToys, for sure. And this. And that's all I need. The Geocoin, the travel bug, the ammo can, this nano and the micro.

 

And I don't need one other thing, except my dog.

 

I don't need my dog.

I have read only the first page of what seems like a childish, trollish thread and the only point I want to point out which may have already been but I can't stand to look at the other 5 pages....

 

NO ONE HAS FORCED A MOD OR A REVIEWER TO DO WHAT THEY DO....

 

I am pretty sure that no one got an email that started out "You have been drafted to be a cache reviewer. If you do not do this job to our statisfication, you will be forever banned from the caching community."

 

It is completely ________ and ________to try to take a jab at Groundspeak for the fact they don't compensate their volunteers in some way and use it as a basis for quiting Geocaching. (fill in the blanks as you would have them with words that demonstrate how lame this really is... I had originally used moronic and idiotic; however, then I realized I might be making a mod step and and edit this post and since they don't get paid or even free memberships, I didn't feel it was fair to make them act more than what they needed to.)

 

Your GF broke up with you....you weren't into caching to begin with....hopefully she'll see this thread too and then realize how much more pain and suffering you are going through....boo-hooo....seriously though, I feel the pain, but you need to direct it where it needs to be.

 

Don't blame the game or GS for something that wasn't eithers fault.

I actually agree that Groundspeak, Inc. should pay the reviewers. The volunteer reviewer system was fine while JI had the servers in his spare bedroom while working full-time somewhere else (NOTE: I don't actually know he had them in his spare bedroom, but that just sounded good). I mean I work at a similar sized company with about 50 full-time employees, and we don't have "volunteers" all over the world that do work for us for free. Perhaps we should call ourselves a hobby, and see what happens.

 

Yeah, his GF broke up with him. Not the first time I've seen a romance related Geocide.

Just the Thermos. Nothing more. Nothing less.

[+Douce Us 5]

To hate the sport, or maybe to take it too serious, because of the very simple rules is, well, kind of sad I guess.......

[+Chrysalides]

That depends very much on what's in the thermos. Preferably something 80 proof.

 

And a towel, of course. Never forget the towel.

A moist towlette will never substitute when trying to prevent a wet spot.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

You know, like when you accidentally get wet while caching and want to protect your car seat.

"a hoopy frood who really knows where his moist towelette is" ? Nah.

 

Geocide from a basement window? Elbow! Ni!

[+TABjuggler]

A couple of my friends in Orlando just found one of ashnikes' caches and really enjoyed it. Good job. I think this proves my point: stop spending so much time on the forums, stop worrying so much about trying to fix something pretty much nobody else thinks is broken, and spend more time finding and hiding caches!

 

Whoops, I think I accidentally saved ashnikes from geocide.

 

You are welcome everyone!

 

No, but seriously, Ashnikes, that cache was a lot of fun and creative. Those are the kind of caches I enjoy finding and doing. It told a fun little story. I'm glad you enjoyed my log. I was actually planning on hitting up your Rollins caches at some point if I ever happen to be over on that side of town.

 

Sorry to hear about your ex, but it always gets better with time. You know how it goes. I can see how it would be rough to cache in the area and keep seeing her name, but why not flip it around? Geocache way harder than her so she has to see YOUR name whenever she wants to cache. To me, no girl can be better than finding useless stuff in the woods right?

 

If you ever want to go on a FTF adventure or notice a really interesting cache you haven't done in the area, hit me up. I'm trying to eventually work up to doing all the caches to fill in the WRC grid, but I don't know how much you like the bushwacking caches or not.

 

Glad to see that you decided to stick around since I don't want that particular cache to get archived. At least figure out a way to waterproof that cache and put the logbook in a bigger bag though

 

Also what is the problem with caching alone? I love exploring random places by myself. I'm only going to bother making sure I have a partner for stuff that is like 3+ terrain or greater. I feel like doing those ones alone might be a bad idea. Like to me, what is the point of doing a 1/1 PnG with two people? I mean how hard can it be to figure out which light pole has the cache when you have 2 gps?

Hahahaha perhaps,

I came up with three more very interesting hides coming your way soon, one is going to be in vietown on 50 near mills, if you know where thats at, one is going to be a luau in the middle of a small patch of woods, and one is in the works of being published at the fleet peoples dog park in baldwin park, the reviewer bless his heart is waiting on me to stop being so dramatic to publish it,

 

Ide love to go out with you guys, that would be great, and i agree bushwhacking in the swampy back woods of florida can be a bad idea alone, theres one in orange city where i used to live way back in the woods i want to find, but its apparently almost all bushwhacking and not recommended in the summer, so im determined to do it in the summer. just need a machete or three.

Ok. We are done. Six pages. Lots of angst. He's not leaving after all. Off-topic now.
