Hi all IFISHAZ here,
Ok, well I feel this is a subject that needs some public debate (if it has
had debate before, sorry it was before I became a geocacher). What is your
(other cachers) feelings on geocachers returning to caches (sometimes very
repeatedly) they have found previously just to get a Travel Bug? I personally think it
is wrong, once you have found a cache there is no fun / adventure /
difficulty, to keep going back to it. Also by returning to a cache you know where it is
to get a TB, you cut chances of a new visitor to that cache having a
legitimate find of a TB. Also it cuts down potential new visitors to a cache who may
have went looking for a bug, but it is gone because a cacher who has been there
before takes it. I think that finding geocaches should be the main goal and
if you get a TB when you find a cache, cool bonus. Not find geocaches so you
can locate them and rush straight to them when a TB has been placed and grab it.
Just my opinion, IFISHAZ.
