Were you aware that you can "dip" your personal TB/geocoin into caches you have
previously visited and then delete the log yourself? This will NOT remove the
mileage and will keep from "cluttering" other cachers cache pages with "dip for
mileage" type logs. Actually this is probably why your logs were deleted by
those cachers. But as I mentioned before: doing this does NOT delete the
mileage you have put on your TB/geocoin and it does not eliminate the "history"
of the coin visiting the cache - just go to any cache you have dipped your TB
into where the log was deleted and click on the "See History" link on the right
side of the page under "Inventory". Your bug will show up there as having
visited the cache. Personally, if I "dip" my personal mileage coin into a cache
because I forgot to do so when logging the cache (which I do on occasion) I
always delete the extra log. Oh, and BTW, when "dipping" a coin into a
previously visited cache, log it on the
same date you previously visited the cache. :-)
Cheers, Sarah

I only dipped by writing a note. Even when we visit a cache for a second time
I only write a note. I stated in each note that it was a TB dip for personal
miles. I do appreciate you all answering, I just wanted to make sure I didn't
violate some 'major rule'.

If you were logging a second find, I could understand having your logs deleted
(and they should all be, by the owner or by you), but so long as the find has
already been recorded, you should be able to post a note to drop a bug, and I
don't think many cache owners would have a problem with that. Just don't record
a second find on a cache that you have already logged. Also be sure to mention
in your note what you are doing and why... and after today's listserv topics,
probably include a joke or three.
