Mungerbees Posted February 23, 2003 Share Posted February 23, 2003 Ok I am getting familier with travelbugs but when you see one in a cache and take it, do you have to exchange something for it or just go ahead and take it closer to it's destination. Quote Link to comment
skydiver Posted February 23, 2003 Share Posted February 23, 2003 The general consesus (from my experience) is that bugs are a seperate game. So, no, when you take a bug you don't need to leave anything in exchange. And likewise, if you just leave a bug, you don't get to take anything either. --------------------------------------- "We never seek things for themselves -- what we seek is the very seeking of things."

+brad.32 Posted February 27, 2003 Share Posted February 27, 2003 I hadn't thought about it. I have found 3 bugs and considered them trading items (that you definitely pass on). If you don't leave something in return, it's depleting the cache. Many caches can use the extra help. Quote Link to comment
+Newenglandah Posted February 27, 2003 Share Posted February 27, 2003 There was a past thread on this same topic, My feeling is you don't have to exchange an item, but i tend to anyways... It can't hurt if you do throw something in that cache... Cache Now, shovel the snow later!!! See You In the Woods!!! Natureboy1376 Quote Link to comment

If the next person just takes the travel bug, then the cache has been depleted by one item. My line of thinking is to always leave more than you take, even if you're only taking a travel bug. Granted, I've not always been successful with that approach, but that's what I try to strive for at all times.
