It
still seems weird that he's not giving you any concrete reason (that can be
backed by gc.com policy or something) as to why you can't adopt that
cache.

cache
Dear ShadowAce,
You make a good point. However, I want to keep almost
all the old information, i.e. logs, original owners name, location because it
is a little unique and small. It is an urban cache that most do not like
but it brings you close to some very interesting history of old
Prescott. I know that many of us have lost a container and log. I
don't believe that should be a criteria for making a totally new cache.
When Michael LaPaglia suggested I make
a new cache at the same waypoint location, it told me there was no complaint
from a business nearby. He can not or will not tell me where it is
stated in policy, black and white, that when a cache goes missing it must be
archived. I know he or someone has the technical power to un-archive
this cache so I can adopt it. I just don't know how much I want to push
the issue.

Basically to drop all the other spam that this
became....
I would say this IMHO:
New owner, New
Cache, New Log. = New Cache
Old Container, Old Log, New Owner =
Reactivate.
Since this cache is not the cache in question, it
really is a new cache, new hide and as such deserves a new history.
Thats my opinion and I like it, your feelings will
vary.

OK
everyone, I need to find out why an archived cache can't be
un-archived
so the adopt program can be used. I am trying to get a
cache
back on line that the original owner can no longer
maintain. I
was told by Michael LaPaglia at GC.com that once
a cache is archived it
can not be un-archived. I am pretty
sure that I read somewhere that a
cache could be un-archived and
brought back on line. If you want to
look at the cache on
line the way point is GCJWPV
