+TEAM 360 Posted May 28, 2004 Share Posted May 28, 2004 So many times we ALL come in here and complain about rules, or caches not getting approved, or various other topics... Well.....not this time. Here is a bit of good news for a change. I had an issue with a Travel Bug today, and decided to call Groundspeak to see what could be done. Not only did Nate contact Jeremy directly about it, he followed up on the issue and called me back to make sure everything went smoothly. WOW! Gotta give thanks to the crew there for helping out this geocacher! Keep up the good work! Quote Link to comment

+sept1c_tank Posted May 28, 2004 Share Posted May 28, 2004 Just this week, I had a question directed to the Groundspeak folk. I got a response from Nate in a matter of hours. Those guys are so tightly knit and on the same page all the time, you'd think Nate is Jeremy's brother or something. Quote Link to comment

+robert Posted May 28, 2004 Share Posted May 28, 2004 nate helped me out with a name change and a cache adoption and turn-around was very quick in both cases. Quote Link to comment
MustangPhreak&Phate Posted May 28, 2004 Share Posted May 28, 2004 I'm not sure who Nate is but he also helped us in the adoption of two caches recently. Total turn-around time was less than two hours... Fantastic and friendly service. Way to go Nate!! Quote Link to comment
Keystone Posted May 28, 2004 Share Posted May 28, 2004 OpinioNate is the average-looking half of the Groundspeak community relations team. He assists with answering e-mails, unarchiving caches, processing cache adoptions and so forth. When you send a message to the general contact address, chances are good that it will be Nate who assists you. With the addition of Hydee and then Nate to the Groundspeak staff, response time has greatly improved and I am glad to see people noticing that. It is much rarer now for a routine inquiry to "slip through the cracks." I know that the other volunteer reviewers join me in saying how pleased we are to have Nate available as an additional resource for solving problems. Quote Link to comment
+Torry Posted May 28, 2004 Share Posted May 28, 2004 May I just take this opportunity to say that I feel the moderators and approvers of GEO-CACHING.com are the finest collection of human beings I have ever had the priviledge of knowing? Honest. I mean that from my heart. I love you guys. ( > sniff < ) Quote Link to comment
Keystone Posted May 28, 2004 Share Posted May 28, 2004 Methinks that there's a pig desirous of adopting a cache.... Quote Link to comment

It is prettier than a mule. Shirley Quote Link to comment
+Markwell Posted May 28, 2004 Share Posted May 28, 2004 My early farm-boy recollections is that (as others have said) a mule is a sterile cross between a horse and a donkey. Basically, mules were stubborn, but hardworking animals. In most cases, they look much like horses except for the ears. Mule Facts: The Mule is a cross between a donkey stallion (called a jack) and a horse mare. Hinnies are just the opposite - a stallion horse crossed to a donkey jennet. But for all intensive purposes, they are lumped together as mules. The mule has greater endurance and is stronger and less excitable than a horse. For another oddity... Here's a zebroid (zebra/horse) OK - too much off topic information. Geocaching staff and reviewers rock! Quote Link to comment
+El Diablo Posted May 28, 2004 Share Posted May 28, 2004 niceass Looks like a mule to me. Now back on topic. I've never heard of Nate, but I would like to say...Welcome aboard!! El Diablo Quote Link to comment

+Markwell Posted May 28, 2004 Share Posted May 28, 2004 I've never heard of Nate, but I would like to say...Welcome aboard!! You're kidding, right? Here's the Markwell for the day. This is the earliest reference to OpinioNate that I could find. TPTB = The Powers That Be = Jeremy, Elias, Hydee, Rostafari, OpinioNate I believe he's the one that answers the "contact" address. Right? Quote Link to comment
+sept1c_tank Posted May 28, 2004 Share Posted May 28, 2004 Here is a photo of Nate the Great. This Nate I believe to be Jeremy's brother. I also believe that OpinioNate is the same person. At any rate, The job by Nate Is great. Quote Link to comment
Max Cacher Posted May 28, 2004 Share Posted May 28, 2004 OpinioNate, Nate the Great, Nate he is called many names , but I am proud to call him “BUDDY” he is a very sincere, and a super intelligent young man, and works at the speed of light, and we are all happy to have him on the Groundspeak team.
