THIS ENTRY WAS ADDED ON OCT.24TH 2006

AS FOR THE LITTLE POLL THAT IS ON THE YAHOO GROUP. WHY DID THEY MAKE A STATS PAGE?

My response:
They wanted an opinion.

Her words:
ANSWER IS TO SEE WHO CAN JUMP OVER WHO ON FINDS AND HIDES.

My response:
That is your opinion.

Her words:
OK THEY HAVE STATS IN FOOTBALL, BASEBALL AND OTHER SPORTS.

My response:
These are regulated sports with rules that are enforced with penalties to those who break the rules.

Her words:
IT SHOULD NOT MATTER WHO PUT THEM OUT

My response:
It doesn't.

Her words:
OR WHO ADOPTED THEM AFTER THEY WHERE PUT OUT.

My response:
This does matter.  The person who adopts a cache must be willing to be responsible for that cache.

Her words:
PEOPLE THIS IS A COMPETIVE SPORT.

My response:
That is your opinion.

Her words:
AS FOR LOGGING YOUR OWN CACHES WELL I HAVE PLENTY OF EVIDENCE OF THAT STORED ON DISC.

My response:
Glad to see you are taking up cache patrole.

Her words:
SEE WHAT YOU ALL DO NOT REALIZE IS I PUT ALL NEW CACHES AND CACHES WE HAVE FOUND ON MY WATCHLIST AND READ EVERY SINGLE ONE THEN STORE IT.

My response:
You've told us that before.

Her words:
SO WHY SHOULD IT MATTER WHO HID IT

My response:
It doesn't.

Her words:
AND IF THEY WHERE THEIR WHEN IT WAS HID?

My response:
It doesn't matter who is with a cacher hiding a cache when it is being hid.  Infact it is often funner when shared with a friend.

Her words:
WHY SHOULD IT MATTER WHO PUT IT OUT

My response:
It doesn't.

Her words:
AND THEN ADOPTED IT TO SOMEONE?

My response:
In my opinion a cache should only be put up for adoption when it is no longer reasonable for the origonal hider to maintane the cache.  Such as illness, moving, getting out of caching or any other reason.

Her words:
AS FOR IT COUNTING AS A HIDE IF YOU ADOPTED IT I SEEN PLENTY OF CACHERS DO THAT.

My response:
Unfortunatly this is an area where there is a hiccup in GC.  When you adopt a cache it automatically goes into your caches hidden section.  I personally keep the find because I earned that finding the cache.  As far as if I would claim a cache that I gave up for adoption I wouldn't do that.

Her words:
SO FROM KNOW ON I WILL DO ONLY CERTAIN CACHES HERE IN OKLAHOMA.

My response:
Your loss.

Her words:
I PERFER TO GO CACHING IN THE GAGA COMMUNITY WHERE WE THE 3 Q'S ARE FULL FLEDGE MEMBERS OF THAT GROUP WHERE THEIR IS NO DRAMA LIKE HERE IN OKLAHOMA.

My response:
Go for it!  You have brought more than enough drama to spread around.

Her words:
AND AT ONE POINT I EVEN READ ON A CERTAIN REVIEWERS PAGE OF HIS FORUM ENTRIES THAT IT IS OK TO LOG YOUR OWN CACHES AND THEIR WAS NOTHING WRONG WITH DOING THAT!!!!

My response:
Bring the reviewers in on this great!  They do alot of work for this sport and I am greatfull.  I'm sure they want to hear about all of your antics.  The reviewers  should play thier game the way they want as long as they remain unbiased on approving caches.  

Her words:
THIS WILL ALSO BE COPY AND PASTED TO MY GC ACCOUNT.

My response:
WooHooo!

Her words:
SO IF YOU HAVE ANY MORE BEEFS EMAIL ME PERSONALLY

My response:
You told me not to contact you and so I WON"T!  I keep my word.

Her words:
AND NOT USE THE FORUM ON YAHOO

My response:
I didn't

Her words:
TO START THIS CHILDISH GAMES

My response:
You did that one all by your self.

Her words:
TO TRY AND TURN CACHERS AGAINST OTHER CACHERS.

My response:
You all ready did that.  When you criticized and attacked people in private emails.

Her words:
OK, NOW I HAVE SPOKEN MY PEACE

My response:
Finally!

Her words:
ALL I HAVE LEFT TO SAY IS YOU WILL NOT CHASE ME AWAY

My response:
Who's chasin?

Her words:
BECAUSE OF SOME CERTAIN CAHCERS ARE JUST JEALOUS OF MY NUMBER OF FINDS AND HIDES I HAVE DONE IN LESS THAN A YEAR.

My response:
One I don't think any one is jealous.  Two the numbers are padded.  Three you should be thankfull to all the OKLAHOMA CACHERS who have placed most of those caches you've claimed.

Her words:
YOU WILL NOT WIN THE GAME OF CHASING US AWAY!!!!!!!!!!!

THE 3 Q'S

My response:
Who's chasin again?  I didn't know that was part of the game.

Just A Thought: I Thought GEOCACHING was suppose to be A FAMILY SPORT!!!!! (ADDED 10-10-06)

My response:
I thought so too.

JUST TO LET EVERYONE KNOW AFTER JAMIE AND I REACH MY GOAL OF FINDING 1000 CACHES AND HIDDIING 100 AND JAMIE 2 HIDES.

My response:
Once again this is YOUR goal.

Her words:
WE WILL BE CALLING IT QUITS.

My response:
We've heard that one before.

Her words:
SINCE MOST OF YOU CACHERS DO NOT ENJOY MY CACHES

My response:
I never said that.

Her words:
AND IT IS A WASTE OF MONEY WHEN ALL MY BISONS AND DECON CONTAINERS AND MY ONE AND ONLY AMMO CAN WAS STOLEN.

My response:
I agree.  It is sad when a cache goes MIA.  I'm not sure of all of your caches that went missing but that is why you have to be carefull on where you place a cache.  I was with Darkmoon when he looked for your ammo can cache and it turns out some homeless chose to make that area a home.

Her words:
I AM SURE THERE WILL BE A LOT OF CACHERS HAPPY TO SEE ME AND JAMIE QUITING THE GAME.

My response:
I don't think there is a cacher out there that has a problem with your beautiful little girl.  She is an innocent by standard in your rants.

Her words:
NONE OF YOU KNOW THIS BUT I AM A MANIC DEPRESIVE AND HAVE O.C.D. AND UNLIKE YOU NORMAL PEOPLE THAT DO NOT UNDERSTAND HOW IT FEELS YOU MIGHT WANT TO READ UP ON IT TO UNDERSTAND HOW IT EFFECTS ME.

My response:
I probably understand more than you would even realize.  I am just in a place in my life that I realize that my life is just as important as any one elses.  I don't want to read up on it.  These are your problems and you need to take responsibility for them.  Learn for yourself how it effects you so that you can control your own actions.  That is your responsibility you are a leagal adult and unless the court deams it you are accountable for your own actions.

Very well said mommyfried. I just have one thing to add. In the poll that started this whole crap up again, there was no names mentioned. I took the poll as being addresses to anyone doing this and to see if everyone felt it is ok to do. As a matter of fact if you check gc.com forum and search "padding cache finds" you will get 11 pages of posting pertaining to this very thing. I could care less. If that is how someone wants to play the came, fine, but do not go crazy on any one when they question it. Even though gc.com allows this type of action, there is an ethical question that everyone else askes. If you think it is ok than do it and shut up about, and deal with everyone wanting to know if that is allowed or not. Some people may not see an ethical problem with this, well that is their opion. And other people do not have any ethics or morals. Untill gc.com sets down rules about how the game is played, there is nothing anyone can do about it. But new players are going to ash if it is ok that such and such is doing that. If you are one of those people, than expect it, accept it, and SHUT UP ABOUT IT.

they aren't going to florida...maxwell q put this on the where's george page
"As of this past Monday (Oct 2nd), I was told I had about 6 weeks left of my Naval Career. After 17 years, I am done, and it is not a choice of my own. I am being discharged for being out of body fat standards. I am going to try to get a Federal Job, that way I can continue with my retirement, and it will not be 17 years wasted. If my wife and I have the money, we will be there. Afterall there is caches in the Stroud area that I still do not have and a few that I do that my wife needs."
