+Captain No Beard and the Pi Rats Posted May 7, 2003 Share Posted May 7, 2003 In th' spirit o' Trash ou'...how 'bouts thems with "old" currently unavailable caches harchive them...it's 10% of the space on my nearest. You can re-activate an archived cache with an email, so it's not like you lose it forever, but really...if it's not reactivated within 3 months...ok 6 months. Maybe if the Trash is out, someone else will put a cache in!! Just my eighth of a doubloon worth! Keep yer sail 'igh, 'nd move swiftly, Captain No Beard and the Pi Rats Quote Link to comment
+Laserman Posted May 7, 2003 Share Posted May 7, 2003 Look for FFTE to be back up and running soon, it was placed unavailable for the wet season as the trail to it gets rather sloppy. I have sitting under my desk at home a new improved container and it is chalked full of brand spankin' new FFT's. Quote Link to comment
+Renegade Knight Posted May 7, 2003 Share Posted May 7, 2003 I don't know what the magic point is to get back out and fix an NA cache. One of mine went 4 months. Give or take, but it got it back online. It's not just a function of 'close to home' it's also having time. ===================== Wherever you go there you are. Quote Link to comment
+Captain No Beard and the Pi Rats Posted May 7, 2003 Author Share Posted May 7, 2003 I agree that there is no function to tell when is too long, just that there are quite a few around here like: This one... Last found...March 17, 2002! Since an email to admin will bring the cache back online, it seems courteous to archive them if it's too long between going inactive and today!

+freecoder Posted May 7, 2003 Share Posted May 7, 2003 How about an option on the seek page that would allow display of unavailable caches? I would like to lobby for an option to not display found caches. It would make it much cleaner to see the ones your planning to hunt. Freecoder Quote Link to comment
+pdxmarathonman Posted May 7, 2003 Share Posted May 7, 2003 Cap'N - that cache was only online for 3 months and has been offline for 15 months. I would suggest 1 of 2 (or both) things. Make a this cache shouldbe archived posting on the cache page with an explanation like what I just wrote. Or email the owner with the request. The cache note emails them and the admins.

soup Posted May 7, 2003 Share Posted May 7, 2003 Yeah, I can already feel the heat. My Whhistle cache has been unavailable for awhile. I suppose I should archive it, until I get the proper permission from the folks at the autobahn (heh). But I suppose I can un-archive it when I get it back out there. I hear your concerns, and I am here to help. Consider it archived... sniff.. What's the difference between roast beef and pea soup? Anyone can roast beef. Quote Link to comment
