+Got_4by4 Posted August 19, 2011 Posted August 19, 2011 (edited) Personally, I believe that ALL these challenges are DUMB! Ok, let's do a tribute to 911. Then all these foreign geocachers come and mark it completed! The original Idea was good but the resulting outcomes are so severely OFFENSIVE that I just wish that they would all just disappear! No rules doesn't work! PLEASE delete any named cacher with only challenges and BAN THEIR IP address! Give me a break! Somebody mentioned that virtuals had no log to sign. There are either photo or other requirements to fill and submit to the cache owner, THEN HE/SHE can approve or delete your log?find at their discretion! THAT'S RULES!!! Challenges have NO RULES!!! NO GOVERNENCE!!! BOYCOTT CHALLENGES!!! Edited August 19, 2011 by Got_4by4
+Panther&Pine Posted August 19, 2011 Posted August 19, 2011 Gee, Angst much? Regular font, and a sensible thought process will get you farther.
+LucyLee Posted August 19, 2011 Posted August 19, 2011 I like the challenges. If you think they are dumb, don't look at them or even do them then.

+Got_4by4 Posted August 19, 2011 Author Posted August 19, 2011 I like the challenges. If you think they are dumb, don't look at them or even do them then. LucyLee's cache finds probably match her post count!

GOF and Bacall Posted August 19, 2011 Posted August 19, 2011 I like the challenges. If you think they are dumb, don't look at them or even do them then. LucyLee's cache finds probably match her post count! And this is germane how?
+Got_4by4 Posted August 19, 2011 Author Posted August 19, 2011 Why have you completed two if they are so dumb? :lol: I tried it, then I saw "ChallengeCompleter" and others so abusive and OFFENSIVE, that I have stopped. Maybe you can tell me how I can undo them. I bet you CAN'T!!! Laugh at THAT!
tomowens Posted August 19, 2011 Posted August 19, 2011 OK I did one. It has been archived, so I can no longer delete it. It will remain as my only one.

+popokiiti Posted August 19, 2011 Posted August 19, 2011 I think we could at least give them a chance. I am going to, and aim to have fun doing so. Each to their own. It may be interesting to see how they evolve, and there's still plenty of geocaches out there too.

Between the 2 of you, who would have a better grip on what geocaching is all about?
+Nature Kids Posted August 19, 2011 Posted August 19, 2011 Can we make a Challenge to boycott Challenges?

That is some serious anagram work you're doing there, sparky. I was referring to the "Boycott" OP. Nothing more. Constructive feedback is always welcome. Calls for boycott and other nonsense is just silly. Edited August 19, 2011 by Cryptosporidium-623

All it shows is that I use this account often when posting in the forums. She doesn't use that one in here very often. The numbers you see don't really mean much.

You'd make a lousy universal translator. Edited August 19, 2011 by Cryptosporidium-623
+Charlie Fingers Posted August 19, 2011 Posted August 19, 2011 I haven't even attempted to find out what they were. But, now I want to investigate further and possibly try one or two! Thanks Got_4by4!
