+canadazuuk Posted October 10, 2003 Share Posted October 10, 2003 Actually, it isn't really 'bothering' me per se. I even asked to be included in your private topic. But after the third or fourth time you've had a thread closed (with appropriate notations etc...), maybe you just aren't getting the point? And now another topic asking if the admin can't take a joke? Why is a private topic NOT an option? As much as I'd like to hear about the KFWB thing, and post about it, I won't openly take part in peeing off an admin (and/or gc.com) 'just because'... maybe that's why you and I are different?

+eroyd Posted October 10, 2003 Share Posted October 10, 2003 I apologies for my part in the previously locked thread that was "peeing of an admin". I didn't realize a few geocachers having fun could cause them and the sight such hardship. (I honestly am quite ignorant to the ins and outs of sight management ) Senseless? Not if you consider the entertainment value for those of us that may need a break in our stressful lives. Then again some seem to get stressed by taking the GC GAME a little too seriously. IT IS A GAME! FUN! ENTERTAINMENT! Not necessarily a sight for sparring master debaters and cunning linguists. Link to comment
+cache-advance Posted October 10, 2003 Share Posted October 10, 2003 Jimmyjames, The Admins of this website recognize your desire to discuss matters that involve private cache hunts, your exploits and similar events that may be of interest to a select number of local geocachers. Unfortunately, we believe that these events are not in the interest of the general geocaching community. Alternative means of continuing your discussions have been recommended in previous threads which you have participated in. Once again, we encourage you use the Private Topic features of this Forum to continue your discussion. For further clarification, please refer to the Groundspeak forum posting guidelines. Private Discussions: Sometimes, a discussion thread strays off into a friendly dialogue or a heated debate among a very small number of users. For these exchanges, use the private discussion feature that is provided through the Groundspeak forums, or the Geocaching.com e-mail system. Public forum posts should be reserved for matters of interest to the general community. Cache-Advance Geocaching.com Admin Link to comment

Well, I find it rather interesting. And it does have something directly to do with the caching community. These guys (who've posted to this thread) have contributed a great deal to caching in BC -- I don't get why this is such a big deal to you. And Zuuky, if it's not bothering *you* so much then why are you making such a *big* deal about it? Reminds me of the old cache-cop days. Who *did* make you God? Why is it that you guys are getting so worked up about this -- let me let you in on a little secret -- you guys are not the only ones who cache in this community.

Jomarac5 Posted October 11, 2003 Share Posted October 11, 2003 Even if it is true that you don't know Cache-Advance (funny that you would argue that not ever receiving an e-mail from him proves something -- that was rather transparent), you both do seem bent on the same objective, which seems to be that you and he want to rule caching in our neighbourhood and heaven help the person who steps out of your confined court. Seems funny that nearly every issue that has popped up in the past week or so has you right in the thick of it -- arguing vehemently against anyone with an opinion of their own. I'd say that is a sign of a vendetta. And yes, I *can* address both of you with this one post -- because you are both doing exactly the same thing. Attempting to prohibit many of those in your local community from enjoying themselves in a way that we want to. You do this by trying to censor discussion and by posting complaints about everyone who is not you. Time to take a white wake-up pill Zuuky, the blue ones are not helping you anymore. ***** You need a good command of the language to be a moderator. Link to comment

None-the-less, go and read my statement again: I have never even received an e-mail from cache-Advance about anything, so I can assure I do not know who this person is. What is transparent? I do not know who this administrator is (or isn't). Apparently you do. Apparently you have a vendetta. Don't snow the snow man here Jomo, you think you know who Cache-Advance is, and you're out to 'get him'. But YOU have no proof, do you? That's the difference. You told me you were Captain Urchin. quote:Seems funny that nearly every issue that has popped up in the past week or so has you right in the thick of it -- arguing vehemently against anyone with an opinion of their own. I'd say that is a sign of a vendetta. Look in the mirror Jomo, look in the mirror. There is a story about a man who wanted to give fish to the emperor, but a palace guard on the way in asked to receive half of the reward, and he wouldn't let the man into the palace without a promise from him to share the reward from the emperor. So the man promised to share half. Upon giving the fish to the emperor and his servants, the man asked for 200 lashings. They were puzzled, but agreed, and began lashing him lightly. At the 100th lash, the man cried out for them to stop, and explained that he had promised to give half the reward to one of the place guards in order to gain entry to the palace. Needless to say, the palace guard got lashed quite badly... Link to comment

Smells like something that fell out of the rear end of a male cow. That's pretty lame for a comeback. Why can't you respond to the facts? Why don't you and I agree to start a private topic now, and invite a few folks along, maybe an admin or two, so we can discuss things in private, and not make everyone else in the room feel ill. How about it Jomarac5? No more of this back and forth banter. My challenge to you. Do you accept? Link to comment

+canadazuuk Posted October 11, 2003 Share Posted October 11, 2003 So here's the deal Jomarac5. You and I pick as many as 4 people each, who agree to be in on the private thread. Ten others can request to be part of it. Up to three admins can request to be part of it.

Fine then. Can I expect this to be the case all the time? Or are there limitations to this I should know about?

You see, this is why I find it so pointless to engage in a discussion with you. I did not say that you were intellectually inferior -- I said that I was bored with your drivel and find it lacking in intellectual content -- there's a pretty significant difference -- you don't read things carefully and then you say that things have been said that indeed have not been said. That is why I will not engage you in this silly excersize. Why don't you just answer RobertM's question: What IS your point? And while your're at it, why not pursue an answer for this unanswered question? Ignore shields on full. ***** You need a good command of the language to be a moderator. Link to comment
