+akkatracker Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 Often I place caches with Friends- it would be great if we could both own the cache (make changes and have owners properties) Hope we can and I know others who would like it Quote Link to comment
+Planet Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 You can put multiple names as owners, but you need a dedicated email/contact for any NM, NA, or questions to go to. The other owners can watch the listing. You don't really want multiple people editing a listing. That's how I do it. Works fine. Quote Link to comment

If you look, all my caches are like that- also many people do not get credit for awesome caches Quote Link to comment

+Lieblweb Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 Create a separate 'account' and use a gmail account (also created separately). Give the login & password information to you & your friends. Setup the gmail account to forward emails to you (both of you). Both you & your friends will have access to the caches AND have access to the gmail account. Just make sure...your friends are worthy enough to manage the accounts accurately, without giving the login information to anyone, or being computer savvy enough not to screw something up.

But I have multiple friends- Fair comment but Joint ownership would be better Quote Link to comment
+Planet Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 If you look, all my caches are like that- also many people do not get credit for awesome caches Give them each a pat on the back, and a big "attaboy". If their name is listed on the cache page, they got credit. If it's really important, you can link to their profiles in the description. Most people will probably not even look at the profile page of the hider, except to contact them. Quote Link to comment

+N7MFT Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 I like the idea. While it is not about the numbers for most people others do want hide credit for the caches they help with. I don't think that they should necesasarily be able to edit the xcache but theyt should be able to do maintenance on them. I have a cache that a friend of mine helped me hideand I would line for hime to get the credit for his first. Well that is my 2 cents. N7MFT Quote Link to comment
+Lil Devil Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 I have a cache that a friend of mine helped me hide and I would line for hime to get the credit for his first. Why? Is there an award for most caches hidden? Quote Link to comment
Pup Patrol Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 (edited) It sounds like a great idea on the surface, but unfortunately it involves humans. Humans who get along fine now, but might have a spat later on. Having more than one person in control of the cache page is a disaster waiting to happen. I have a cache that a friend of mine helped me hideand I would line for hime to get the credit for his first. Well that is my 2 cents. N7MFT So let him adopt the cache. B.
