RE: [Az-Geocaching] cheater/not cheater

It's quite possible that this cacher does legitimately find some caches;
but logs many more than he actually found on the site. Rand's
suggestion to e-mail the cacher with specific questions would probably
the only way to tell.

I assumed (and still do) that Gale was referring to the next entry which
indicates this person went caching with someone else. Gale - is that
right?

Gale,

Just because a person states "Nice location!" on the cache page doesn't
mean that the individual found the cache. In the case of the cache that
you reference, I could look at the map and determine the cache is
located in a "nice location."

It's also possible the individual may be driving to/past the caches
without actually finding them, but is claiming them as a virtual.

I believe it's understood that a log book/sheet must be signed at the
cache location to claim a find on the web page (unless the cache is
actually a virtual and/or has other rules for claiming a find). I have
no objection to a cache owner deleting an entry if there is no proof
that the individual actually found the cache. If there is a question
from a cache owner, an email to the individual asking to explain where
and how the cache was found and/or asking for a description of the cache
should clear up some doubt.
