archived with no explanation

[hobiegary]

I was "archived" and was not even told why. My guess, it was in a national park. However, it was a "virtual cache," so that means that it is not against any rules.

 

I was not given any explanation, so why am I wasting my time here?

 

Oh well, I'll move on and have my fun without the rest of you.

 

Have a good time; even if it is hard to do when I am gone.

Can you list the cache so we can check it out?

Found it.

There is an explanation on the cache page now.

Sorry,

But www.goecaching.com has a sister site devoted to these benchmarks. Please use that site at http://www.geocaching.com/mark/

Thanks,

Also, don't give up so quick. Stick around and check geocaching out a bit more.

If they won't let you do a virtual cache on a benchmark then put a small microcache with a log along side it

 

Where there's a will.....

Rules and Regulations are made to be repsected and accepted. To leave a log book or anything else on such an island, a national park, a national treasure, would be a moral crime in itself.

 

I'll just go on and respect the landscape. This (Channel Islands National Park) is not a place to leave *anything.*

 

You should see how much trouble we go through to leave wtih our own human waste. A national park is excluded from geocaching, since you can't leave anything there. Too bad that we can't even leave a shared memory.

 

I would be first in line to call for some competitive websites to the one that I first tried-out.

 

I will go to "benchmarking" and you may, or may not, ever hear from me again.

I think the approvers may have been a little hasty in disapproving this cache , but I do have a suggestion that should make the cache acceptable to them. If you were to rewrite the cache so that instead of posting that it is a survey marker you say it is a location with a fabulous view. Then require that any finders verify their find by emailing you what they find on the ground at this location. Then it becomes a very interesting virtual cache that just happens to use a benchmark to verify the find.

What a crappy attitude, especially for your second post and only being registered for one day.

 

I love that this activity to growing and attracting new people, but with you coming in full of piss and vinegar like that I can't say I'm sad to see you go. With that personality all you can do is bring others down.

Registered for one day, eh?

 

I'm guessing it's another troll.

 

At the rate we're going, we're going to have to start building bridges just to house the darned creatures.

Can we place a cache under the bridge too????
