I sure hope that isn't what it is. I would have for them to have to require
those security code boxes on the log screens. I have a heck of a time
reading them!



But, you're probably right. Although, a well written one could have
'logged' all the virtuals in the time it took this one to find 187. No, I
won't write one to prove it. LOL

I don't think this is a person. I think a person is responsible, but I think
it's a bot...a poorly written one, but it seems to me that the log
generation is faster than a normal human writes logs, the log is always
written the same, and they do appear to be going somewhat alphabetically.
Theres just too much structure for this to not be software. The code monkey
needs to take class in fuzzy logic. And someone should report this to
.

Well, his log to one remaining virtual is gone. But, so is my virtual.
Shadowace let me know that site is closed for maintenance. Rats. I hate
shutting down virtuals.

They probably don't realize the cache owner gets an EMail of the log.
I'm pretty sure they didn't visit Quartzsite...EVER.

Nope, you can use the link to the log from the email you receive as owner


:)


Click - direct to log - click log delete - click confirm.. Three clicks


and


poof!

Profile for User: The-Sledge

He has logged everything I own as a virtual and simply wrote "Email


sent"


as the log.

So since my virtuals require pictures I sent a polite email back


asking


for the pictures and decided to check his profile and see if it is a


visitor


or a new AZ Cacher.

Interestingly he found 129 virtual and no physical caches:

Member Since: Thursday, February 26, 2009 Last Visit: Thursday,

In the amount of time it took to write that much he went from 129 to


143


finds..

Caches * 143

**Total Caches Found* *143 *

ranging from Arizona to Alaska to Connecticut and Hawaii on the SAME

Someone needs to help stop these fake logs :(
I am simply going to delete any and all logs from them until they

provide the required information however I thought you all might want


to


know
