Why do people cheat on virtuals?
Just a heads up -- if you own a virtual cache and you care whether anyone is placing bogus finds on it, you may want to check for a find by a geocacher named The-Sledge. He/she posted a find on my American Gothic virtual cache today and dated it Dec. 31, 2007 -- so it wouldn't appear at the top of the list, I guess. I deleted it. I see he posted many other finds in many states, supposedly on that same day. I don't understand why anyone would go to these lengths.
TBTP have banned his/her account. A number of the log's are beening deleted still as I'm sure the majority of them are bogus.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the heads up!!!
Gosh, that stinks. What's the point?
ReplyDeleteThanks for the heads up.
ReplyDeleteI can't figure out why the heck somebody would want to do that. Seriously. Why cheat at a game where cheating does nothing in the end?

Sounds like someone trying to drive up their "find" numbers.
