Let me first say I just got home from work, I haven't read all the other
replies nor really read this whole post....*bad me*.....so without further
ado...
I am guilty of doing the 'TNLNSL TFTC' thing. Not always for the same reasons.
Sometimes I have done so many that I just get lazy. Sometimes I don't have
anything to say but not because the cache is bad or anything...may be that I
had to sign quickly because a geomuggle was near...I don't think I have ever
slammed someone's cache cuz I just am happy someone put another one out and I
get to find it. Basically if I feel like waxing poetically in a log then I
will but if I don't then tnlnsl-tftc is it! LuAnn ~~ MamaLu

There's a strong school of thought that an online entry that reads something
like this:
"TNLNSL. TFTC"
(Took nothing, left nothing, signed log. Thanks for the Cache)
is really geo code for
"Your cache sucks"
Is this true?
If you leave logs like this -- is that what you are really thinking?
How much time do you spend writing in the physical logbook as compared to the
cyber log?
As a placer do you get a kick out of reading logs or do you even care?
I'm just curious. I like reading interesting logs -- whether or not they help
with finding the cache. And naturally, you can imagine, that as the log-writer
on our little family team, some of "our" logs may.. digress... Do those kind
of logs "bother" you?
I swiped this post from the forums:
"I"'m surprised no one has stated the obvious. TNLNSL could be considered what
folks in the quality industry call an indicator.
-If you never see it in the logs the cache is probably stellar.
-If you see it in the logs occasionally, either those individuals either didn't
care for the cache, were tacitern9sp?), or were in a hurry.
-If most of the logs are TNLNSL it may well be a stinker.
-If [b]all[/n] the logs are TNLNSL you probably qant to put the cache on your
ignore list. "
Does this hold true in this area? I think I've seen some TNLN entries on what
others thought were good caches? Is this a "less is more" area LOL?
Just .. things to discuss...
