MessageYou're probably right. I still found it funny to some degree. =
The whole shtick, scam or not, had me laughing at the end. Also, in the =
end I was laughing at how it got a rise out of so many people, even me! =
I found that the funniest bit. Mortey got the best of me, and I let =
him. =20
I can certainly see how people might get upset, but that's just not me. =
I have a mortgage and two car payments man! Why sweat this? Might as =
well chuckle and move on. The pirate talk was pretty funny anyway. =
Seeing it typed out was most of what made it funny.
Before anyone says it... Yeah. I would still be saying this if it was =
my cache that got plundered. For the entertainment I got out of it =
Mortey can have my 3 bucks in party store junk. Again, that's just me. =
I'm easy. ;-)
Cache on kids! Life is short.

One man's humor is another man's pain. After reading through the =
forum, it's seems you and "Mortey" are among the few that are laughing. =
I happen to have a sense of humor too, and I think the jokes on you. A =
week after the fact and nothing. No response to Jeremy; no goodies =
replaced in original caches; no goodies placed in other caches; no =
public statement of any kind. I know it's tough backing the losing =
team, but it's time to let it go. The posted "good intentions" were a =
scam.

Mortey, Mortey, Mortey... the jig is up. Nobody seems to get your =
shtick. You've apparently been squashed by King Jeremy. And because of =
all this you'll never be able to carry out whatever your master plan =
was. Just go put the stuff back. Sorry bud. :-(
This whole cache pirate thing has caused me to reflect on what a =
TRUE "sense of humor" is. I'm happy to report that I have one. ;-)

When this problem first came up, I started a thread in the gc =
forums to get some opinions on the matter. I took a few days off, and =
the thread exploded.

Check out this post from Jeremy on the topic...

I'm thinking it safe to say that the concept of a cache_pirate is =
being put to rest by Jeremy. Despite the interesting aspect of the game =
by trying to locate him/her in the field for a prize, I don't really =
care for having the caches plundered. Also, I'm not sure if it was just =
me that alerted Jeremy to the situation at first, but he definitely =
remedied the problem quickly. When I look at both profiles, and the =
lack of a response to Jeremy regarding what is going on, I can't say =
that I believe the second profile. If this person was going to attempt =
rectifying the situation, an e-mail should have been fired off to Jeremy =
almost immediately after his e-mail was fired off. =20
<conspiracy theory>On a side note (and hopefully taken with humor =
in mind), Jeremy identified is as an Earthlink customer who was playing =
the role of the elusive cache_pirate. The only cacher posting to this =
listserv from an earthlink.net e-mail address is Team Tierra =
Buena.</conspiracy theory>
Absolutely nothing connects TTB to the cache_pirate, but it's just =
a little thing I noticed. ;p
/me dons his REAL looking fake boulder to avoid the stoning...and =
perhaps to hide a cache.
