- There's a difference between wanting people to respect your cache and rehide it just as well as you did and calling them "idiots" and "low-quality" cachers (which he has done...even in his profile). Heck, even I have that problem, too, but I don't resort to the tactics he does. As far as the cut-n-paste logs...I don't necessarily like them either...but who cares in the long run? I didn't know there was a requirement to write progressively longer and more detailed logs as the cache difficulty goes up. I would rather deal with a cache owner with two or three decent hides that is nice to people and is not derogatory about them than one who's hidden 82 and calls the finders "idiots" and "low-quality." So...as I said screw him. -Michael --- Mike Griffin <griff@xxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > - > I agree with Coolcache.
