anyone smart, who got any kind of hobby, and maybe dont like it anymore,

try something else, it is fine to go back later, and restart or continue the hobby again,

we took two brakes, each nearly a year long, it is very visible on our profile stats,

but we dont really care much about the stats anyway,

we cache ONLY becourse we like it.

Welcome back :-)

Not much changed here, so it must be you who changed, hope you like it better now :-)

Probably the smartest thing anyone has ever said on a forum, if I ever meet you I will buy you a beer sir, cause that's exactly how I see it too.

Got kinda tired of some of the BS with GCing so took some time off. Besides life was kinda intruding.

But...I am back.

 

Can rant about alot of the BS but wont, enough of that on here.

Anybody else take or took a break and are now back? Whats your story?

 

I liked geocaching more when I never visited the forums and found out how so many people want to ruin a otherwise fun hobby, I guess the only reason I come to these forums is I'm sadistic.

Chuckled a bit after stalking your stats. Fifty one days is a significantly shorter break than I expected after reading your post. I chuckled simply because of the impact of perspective. You hit this game extremely hard for three years so 51 days certainly must feel like a notable break. I, on the other hand would consider it a well deserved vacation. Nice bike, BTW.

Oh, I get it...

 

It's sort of like walking into a country bar, stating loudly that all the music on the jukebox stinks, that it's ruining your appreciation for music because you'd rather listen to Beyonce than Blake Shelton, and then wondering why nobody is offering to buy you a beer.

None of the Forum Flounders want to ruin your Geocaching experience...THAT would be sadistic.

 

Repeatedly coming back to take in what you really don't want to see/know/hear is masochistic.

Coming up on eight years of geocaching and really the only BS I've seen has been here on the forums, which is a different hobby from geocaching. I enjoy participating in the forums, and some of my own posts have been sheer nonsense, but I don't confuse that with actually going outside and walking in the woods.

The cache I found today was fairly new, but was essentially the same type as the first one I found in December of '04. I can't imagine what would make me want to stop.

I took two breaks. Once when I sprained my ankle and the other one which was up to 2 and half months when I had a foot operation. I didn't take a break when I was restricted (banned) from caching because I was with friends and when the restriction was lifted I logged them all in.

Maybe he likes to see other people's geocaching experience being ruined - that would qualify as sadism as well :)

 

Same as DragonsWest, I have taken breaks from the forums but not from geocaching. I pop in every once in a while and respond if there's something that catches my interest, like this thread.

And it's coming from someone who wants to know why we can't put nails in trees and he say the forum is ruining the game.
