My Wife Wears Stockings To Work

Geocaching is secret? No!

Cache Cache has in a very readable journal all turned those who grieve after the "good old days". One of the things he has not discussed here, which I think is very strange attitude some hard-liners that should Geocaching secret as such but please be held. It is here not to the non-observable lifting of caches and the inconspicuous near it, but it will certainly demand that our hobby but please quasi should take place in the underground.

is So - in connection with an accidental discovery of a heroin Cachers - but seriously demanded that we lie to the police but should contact:
You think so?
I find this extremely dimwitted. Some people really can not hold the door.
Why do you constantly encounter people with the nose's Geocaching?

"I went walking and I've found it by chance when I had to leave again. Upset stomach, I did not want directly on the way, if you understand ... "
: Apart assume that there is plenty of bizarre, such secrecy is to require that if it was some books (and (source Green Forum,
this thread
) A. celebrity like Bernhard Hoëcker) Geocaching is to (among many other media reports, blogs, whatever) and have the latest Garmin devices already Geocaching modes - all the events / Mega-Events not to speak first - I ask myself the question: why such lies? Why not tell friends what to do? Why not now and muggles (since even the people turn up their noses over it) with you, especially since this muggles - they should be geocachers - like getting a sensible introduction and explanation, should not do so?

Such claims tend to show the mindset that criticized the above-mentioned review of law - an elitist thinking. I myself am a member of another Subculture, the earlier (in the 90's) operates more hidden / secret and has now become much more open, and please also see amazing parallels: there is also the good old days hinterhergejammert (which, if you are honest, not really were as good) and also was known formerly containing personally. So what? Geocaching

I see the same way do the said sub-culture: there will be not only a platform, but a degree of fragmentation, the signs are already there for some time:
  • Geocaching.com for the masses.
  • Terracaching.com for people like me who appreciate quality and Hiking and where the community decides what is allowed and which caches are good or bad
  • Possibly. Mega Caching as a mixture between GC and TC - the project should be finished sometime :-)
Possibly. additional platforms are added, such as a platform for HCC - the HCCs seem to feel the arrogance of her eh 'as an elite, sometime I write something to - so that there will be no more the community but different . Who wants to have the kick of secrecy, even raise his own secret VIP invite only site.

And honestly, would be the fragmentation (or positive specialization) so bad? Food for thought the second Stammtisch Dortmund now bursting at the seams, are currently over 200 (!) participants registered.

In this sense: after do not mourn the old days, but to adapt to new circumstances.
