[Az-Geocaching] Re: Does it really matter?

[Trisha Radley]

Well....thanks Teri for stepping up like that. If anyone has read my last
few emails, I did (most recently)state it was not that big a deal, not to
worry about it, etc. As Teri stated, of course there is a sense of pride in
accomplishing something. Don't you all (Michael?) feel happy and proud about
your participation in this hobby? But keep in mind, it IS just a hobby,
which is why I first explained the situation for anyone who might be
interested, and then, after hearing snaptek's explanation, I TRIED to let it
drop!
The one thing that did bug me was snaptek's (I think it was Brian's) comment
about "if you want to get a good rating with US".....hmmm....while I
completely agree that the website is theirs to do as they please, and I
really do appreciate the way it is turning out, I don't think it's all that
important to have a "good rating" with Team Snaptek. No offense, guys, but
it's just a hobby. Now, can we finally just let it go, please?
Thanks,
~~trisha
