+Old Fogies Posted March 28, 2004 Share Posted March 28, 2004 I love to learn about fellow geocachers. Most have nothing at all in their profiles. Do any of you have suggestions on getting them to at least put in location. I was thinking of having a "Getting to Know you Cache" where the profile must be filled out to get credit. What do you think? Quote Link to comment
+TeamK-9 Posted March 28, 2004 Share Posted March 28, 2004 I think it's a great idea, but I don't think it would be allowed. I mean there doesn't seem to be any written rules against it, but there's probably an unwritten rule that applies... Quote Link to comment
+JeepCachr Posted March 28, 2004 Share Posted March 28, 2004 How much info would you require in their profile? If they didn't answer every field would you deny them the find? An alternative would be to create your own physical log pages. Create a form with the information that your looking to collect from the cachers that visit your cache. Then put a note in the description encouraging them to fill it out. Most people love to tell about themselves. Those that don't fill out the online profiles don't want the information available to just anybody but would probably feel better shareing it with you in a physical log. In this way you can also ask specific questions that interest you. Quote Link to comment
+hikemeister Posted March 29, 2004 Share Posted March 29, 2004 I'd keep in mind that this is not just for you. When I put out caches, my aim is for others to have fun -- including those who want to remain totally anonymous. I'm not expecting any particular return. Quote Link to comment
cujo0123 Posted March 29, 2004 Share Posted March 29, 2004 I filled out the profile partially when I signed up....I just added more, and I'm going to leave it that way for now until something changes. Quote Link to comment
+olbluesguy Posted March 29, 2004 Share Posted March 29, 2004 are you clicking on the mini profile or the link above the avitar? Seems like most mini profiles are blank. OBG Quote Link to comment
+crzycrzy Posted March 29, 2004 Share Posted March 29, 2004 Isn't a pro-file what professional people use to file stuff in ? I am sooo confused. Quote Link to comment
+Team BigW Posted March 31, 2004 Share Posted March 31, 2004 If you saw my profile you would have to agree it is pretty well filled out. Would I get credit? Oh..you meant the online one. Never mind. Quote Link to comment
+Team Lyons Posted March 31, 2004 Share Posted March 31, 2004 I think allot of people are leery of providing too much info in their profiles. You never know how someone can use that info to their advantage I wont fill my profile out anymore than it is but I'll tell you a little about myself right here. I make just under $200,000 a year my SSN is: 139-99-0010. My Porsche is always unlocked with the keys under the floormats. My checkcard pin is 06969 although I don't trust the banks with all my money so I have the bulk of my savings in trunks hidden in the loft of my carport. My name is Les. Nice to meet ya!
