I personally find that locationless caches can (emphasis on can) be better than many regular caches. I particularly enjoyed the locationless caches pertaining to mills and one room schoolhouses, 'cause those are simply interesting to me. A locationless cache pertains to old stone walls. I have a picture of my cousin on a great, old stone wall in the middle of the woods in the middle of nowhere in Arkansas. I just find that kind of caching mission fun.
Quality will always be an issue for all cache types--locationless, virtual, and regular. The kids and I went caching this past Sunday. We found eight. Four of the eight were in cemeteries! No civil war generals buried there, no famous scientists' graves...just plain, old cemeteries. But we still had a great time. The kids enjoyed their toy exchange, and we picnicked near a spring...in January!
My whole point is this: The quality of any cache is dependent upon the cache placer, not the cache type.
I'd like to see the geocaching world stay large and accomodating enough to allow you to pick and choose what caches you want to pursue. Leaving the game open to different styles will allow geocaching to appeal to a wider audience. Blah. Blah. Blah
My opinion only.
Greg Ponder...The Hairy Hillbilly...who admits finding locationless caches...and admits finding them fun...
