Complaint Dept!!

[Seeker BP]

Seems to me that every thread that I read has some kind of complaint installed in it. So I decided to open a complaint Dept here right now!! Vent your frustrations, and get it off your chest!! Cache ON

[Seeker BP]

Is it that hard to cover the cache back up like you found it????

[+Criminal]

Hey! Couldn't you contain that turd until you left the cache area!?!?! Did you really have to crap right next to my geocache?!?!?

 

If your house catches afire, and there aint no water around,

If your house catches afire, and there aint no water around,

Throw your jelly out the window; let the dog-gone shack burn down.

Sorry about that... But it wouldn't fit in the cache

OK, two of mine:

 

Is it that hard to make a cache harder than a 1/1?

 

Do you have nothing better to do than make 250+ posts to these boards in 3 months??????

 

I think your problem is low self-esteem. It is very common among losers.

[+LarsThorwald]

Okay, here's one I have all the time:

 

"What made you think that a pile of crap next to a freeway onramp was a great site for a cache? This place is obviously a homeless encampment! You think I'm going to let my kids get out of the car within a mile of this place?!!"

 

There's a dark side to living in a place where you have more than a thousand caches within 100 miles of your house...

OK, a third complaint: People that post a URL so long it makes the page 6000 pixels wide!

 

Personally, I just use a plastic bag and hang it from a tree afterward...

[+Runaround]

What's the matter, afraid to go for a little walk? Is at least a few hundred feet down the trail too much to ask?

 

Now where did I park my car???????

Really, what's with these people who don't know what the hell they're doing when they post?!?!

 

oh yeah, that me

OK at the bottom of the description it says "Made of metal and is an excellent multi-purpose bucket."

[boreal jeff & sons]

Can I complain about my boss or does it have to be related to Geocaching.

 

Just incase it's okay, here it goes:

 

I've got this real jerk for a boss. Got the job because of connections. Doesn't have the education or disposition for the job. Just a real loser. He used to play semi-professional hockey when he was younger. You can tell by the missing teeth and crooked nose. He must of overdosed on steroids because this guy is mean and stupid at the same time. The brain dead upper managers gave the guy a raise because he was able to blow the department's training budget on some How-To videos. This guy should be a washroom attendent.

 

Well, there it is....my complaint...more to come.

 

Every hour spent geocaching is added to the end of your life

Favorite quote by ApK:

 

"Oh...I wasn't supposed to put that opened condom and empty Pepto-Bismol bottle in the cache? I had no idea...I'll stop that right now!"

 

[+georgeandmary]

Quit wrapping the cache in black plastic bags... they're yucky!

[+TeamJiffy]

Let's see... mainly about what is in caches...

 

1) Thanks a lot for the wet dog biscuit in the cache! Made the cache really pleasant to open.

 

2) Why did somebody leave a pair of prescription eyeglasses in this cache?!?!

 

3) Oh boy - that soggy dog-chewn tennis ball is a really nice thing to put in this themed cache!

 

We don't go to caches for the prizes, many times we do TNLN, and we try to trade up (or at least trade even) but some of these items are just plain puzzling...

I like the 1/1 caches. Anything that might help someone get started in the hobby is okay with me. I bet there are a lot of 'city folk' who won't look for anything more than a 1/1. Don't wanna get their feet dirty or somethin.

[+Clan Ferguson]

Come on. I'm not asking you to trade up or even keep a theme. is it that hard to carry one item to a cache, swap it with something else then carry that to the next cache??

 

and as for Virts. I just think there are WAY too many of these.

 

IMHO, If your not trading, your not caching.

 

Cache On!!

I would like to complain about the beautiful naked women in my bed.

[kurtuleas]

I am SO sick of that redneck guy who just keeps spamming this board and has not been caching in 2 weeks because of that stupid "not enough time" excuse.

And those dumb "White Trash" caches he puts out in used chew cans is just sick. They all smell like tobacco...

Oh wait, THAT'S ME........

[MACpa]

Why do some people need to Quote the entire original post even if they are the first to respond?

[+Team Tecmage]

Why are there only 24 hours in the day? If we had, say 28, we could find some time to Geocache.

 

BTW, why only seven days? If we had eight, we could have three days in a weekend and get some Geocaching done.

 

BTW, why only 365 days....

[+Criminal]

Well if we're going to complain about things not related to geocaching:

 

1. Why is it that if someone coughs in your face it makes you sick? Why can’t it make you smart or muscular instead?

2. How come a mosquito spreads illness when it bites you? Wouldn’t it be better that if a mosquito stung you it got you high? That would add an interesting dimension to some of the caches around here.

You mean Like this?

 

Someone else asked that recently, too.

If that's what you mean:

The easiest way is to just click the button that says URL down below the editor window where you type your replies (down where it says Instant UBBCode in the green banner). You'll get a pop up box asking for the URL you want to link to, just type or paste it, and then another pop up asking what you want the link to say in the message. It'll appear where your cursor is

A "Complaint Department" - What a good idea, especially since some folks really get off on complaining. Perhaps limit it to complaints only, no replies . . . and nothing to wordy. (I think that was a complaint?)

[+Planet]

I love geocaching but....

I really dislike the way they make me answer the phone at the office. it takes too long and most people already know who they called anyway so why throw a 18 word sentence in when you answer the phone? Does anyone else have this problem? Or hate it when someone anwers the phone like that?

Thank you for calling ******** ###### &&&&&&& @@@@ ^^^^^^^ Services, This is (Planet or your name here) how may I help you?

 

Thanks, I have been wanting to get that out for a while.

Who made the rule that says you should work five days in a week and only get two off. It would be much more fair to rotate between three and four days off.

Going to a supposed "Difficult cache" and finding the only reason why is that you might as well go without a GPSr because its the middle of a cave or a dense jungle.

 

If I go to a hard cache, I want it to be because of the hike or the clever hide, not from bad signal.

Don't know, but you can certainly paste the URL into the reply and just type the tags around it manually as Markwell showed.
