(in other words... this is your THIRD thread about it. Be patient...)
+dorqie Posted July 25, 2011 Posted July 25, 2011 your question has been answered in your last TWO threads. Please stop making threads to ask the same question.
+wimseyguy Posted July 25, 2011 Posted July 25, 2011 Umm, you did get an email that contained this text when you submitted the cache right? Listings are published by volunteers and you can usually expect this to be reviewed within 3 days. Unpublished caches cannot be viewed by the general public. If you wish to view or edit your cache listing in the meantime, please login and use the URL above. I'm betting large quatloos that it hasn't been 3 days since you submitted this one? Chill out dude.
+zoltig Posted July 25, 2011 Posted July 25, 2011 I'm betting large quatloos that it hasn't been 3 days since you submitted this one? Chill out dude. I knew it...I just knew it. You are from Triskelion.

+dorqie Posted July 25, 2011 Posted July 25, 2011 you do know that reviewers don't get paid right? They review caches in their spare time. They usually have day jobs, and families. There is a wait time because they are busy with lots of caches, and they don't review full time.

+GeoBain Posted July 25, 2011 Posted July 25, 2011 I say report the poster and say nothing else. Let the mods deal with it.
+A & J Tooling Posted July 25, 2011 Posted July 25, 2011 He has a right to be upset. Have you seen how few caches are in his country?

Pup Patrol Posted July 25, 2011 Posted July 25, 2011 Don't suppose that there might be someone here who could converse with the OP in Latvian? Maybe provide some constructive help about new cache placements, the review process, the etiquette of forum posting?
+Markwell Posted July 25, 2011 Posted July 25, 2011 I can't wait to hear that this cache was submitted less than 12 hours ago, and that the original poster is just being impatient. Can a reviewer confirm this?
+GeoBain Posted July 25, 2011 Posted July 25, 2011 I can't wait to hear that this cache was submitted less than 12 hours ago, and that the original poster is just being impatient. Can a reviewer confirm this? The OP has one published cache plus one new one submitted today. I'm sure the reviewer for Latvia will be along to have a look at it soon.
+PokerLuck Posted July 25, 2011 Posted July 25, 2011 He's been geocaching for all of five days! He needs the reviewer to hurry before he burns out.
+briansnat Posted July 25, 2011 Posted July 25, 2011 I can't wait to hear that this cache was submitted less than 12 hours ago, and that the original poster is just being impatient. Can a reviewer confirm this? Submitted 7/25. Guess what day today is.

Yeah, but how long is that in Latvia? One Latvian day roughly equals 2.36 American days, depending on the position of the planet Venus in relation to the temperature in Stephen Colbert's living room of course. (Sorry, couldn't resist) Seriously though, I wouldn't be surprised if the same reviewer is covering more than one of the Baltic Nations, considering the relative low number of caches in Latvia. edited for untimely typo Edited July 25, 2011 by dorqie

+Team GPSaxophone Posted July 25, 2011 Posted July 25, 2011 I wouldn't be surprised if the same reviewer is covering more than one of the Blatic Nations, considering the relative low number of caches in Latvia. I've always wanted to visit the Blatic nations.

+NYPaddleCacher Posted July 25, 2011 Posted July 25, 2011 He has a right to be upset. Have you seen how few caches are in his country? Because, after all, the country with the most caches "wins". According to the list caches per country I compiled a few weeks ago, Latvia actually ranks *much* closer to the top than the bottom. There are 248 recognized country/territories in the Hide and Seek a cache select list. There are 222 countries with fewer caches than Latvia, and many of them are *m8ch* larger.

+Coldgears Posted July 26, 2011 Posted July 26, 2011 He has a right to be upset. Have you seen how few caches are in his country? Honestly? There are plenty of geocaches in the one and only major city in the country, quite a few small towns with caches, and a lack of caches in Farmland, and Forest where nobody lives. It is not any different then the US, in any way shape or form
+RoandJoe Posted July 26, 2011 Posted July 26, 2011 Jeez, the post was in poor taste after posting it a few times but does the guy deserve to be lambasted like this for it?
+GrateBear Posted July 26, 2011 Posted July 26, 2011 Well, it is a little cheeky posting the same thing 3 times after being a member for all of 5 days.
+GeoBain Posted July 26, 2011 Posted July 26, 2011 Jeez, the post was in poor taste after posting it a few times but does the guy deserve to be lambasted like this for it? Yes. Keystone explained it in the first post. None of the posts have been locked so he could have continued either of the previous threads. But he decided to open a third thread. So, yes, he deserves to be lambasted like this for it.
+GeoGerms Posted July 26, 2011 Posted July 26, 2011 It's been published! GC30VVZ By none other than erik88l-r the Hawai'i (and other places - he's all over the place) reviewer .
+GeoBain Posted July 26, 2011 Posted July 26, 2011 It's been published! GC30VVZ By none other than erik88l-r the Hawai'i (and other places - he's all over the place) reviewer . That's why I could never be a reviewer. I would be sooooo tempted to shove him to the back of the queue and publish 1 minute before the 72 hours were up.
+dorqie Posted July 26, 2011 Posted July 26, 2011 That was way faster then I've ever had any of mine published! Maybe three threads is the key?
+GeoGerms Posted July 26, 2011 Posted July 26, 2011 That was way faster then I've ever had any of mine published! Maybe three threads is the key? Nope, erik88l-r is just that awesome !
Keystone Posted July 26, 2011 Posted July 26, 2011 I will bet my paycheck that the publishing reviewer was unaware of the three forum threads. Gosh, I thought that my prompt reply to the first thread would set an eager cache owner's mind at ease -- especially since his first cache was published quickly. I was wrong. To the OP: (1) Please allow up to three days for an initial review of a cache submission. Reviewers are volunteers and may not be available at the time when you submit a listing for review. (2) Do not start three forum threads about the same subject. You can add new posts to an existing thread using the "Add Reply" button. To everyone else: (1) As several posters helpfully pointed out, please give extra latitude to community members who are not native English speakers. The forum guidelines are hard enough for native speakers to read and understand. (2) Always be helpful to new geocachers. This OP appears to have caught the fever quite quickly - in a cache-poor area, this should be applauded, not derided. Thanks everyone. Closing this thread. I will merge the other two and leave that one open for any follow up.
