There was a very similar thread over at geocaching.com that I was very 
involved in.  My thoughts are that if the rules for placing and hunting a 
cache get so bad that it is no longer fun, most people will just stop doing 
it.  If that is the case, then it will cease to be a problem, if it ever 
was a problem to start with.
In liberty,
