because no one has told us otherwise, even when asked.

Like being told because we are different we shouldn't even be allowed to belong to the club?

As much as I disagree with SB, I think he's right here. Private conversations are meant to be private. On several occasions SB has kept my personal contacts with him confidential. SB has spread info we shared to the Forums without identifying me, and for that I thank him. I didn't even have to ask.
As for the "listening to the members" part, I suggest continuing to reference "requested by Member/Cache Games Only participant." The problem with that is how can it be verified by interested parties? |

Wow. It never lets up.
I agree with KB. I get sick of reading it too.

True enough; I'm taking this one day, and being grateful for the caches we got.
Maybe we can have a ceasefire at Chritmas?

SB - how can you sleep at night after typing the word ethics?
Think of miles58 moreso as a spokesperson. Moreso a messenger who simply displayed a message. The point is - it doesn't really matter who's exact username is identified. We all know there's enough of us going around who feel the same way. Crucifying one individual will not stop the crusade.
Is there anything in the bylaws about empeachment? The curiosity is overwhelming... |

No. Do not think of me as a spokesperson.
I released this information not to make Saxton look like a duplicitous spiteful little piece of work, but rather to just expose the misrepresentations. Caching in state parks and on state lands is important to some members. The percentage of private vs public land in the southern and western parts of the state is radically lower than for the Northern and eastern parts. I don't personally care if I ever get to place or hunt a cache in a state park, but I care a lot about whether I (read the cachers in the public lands poorer area) have the opportunity.
This will come as a surprise to PTO, who when he received information contradicting what I was being told publicly had the gumption to say so. He does not know I am doing this.
Others may agree with me or not. I exposed the contradictions because it might be someone else next. BUT... I did not act as, nor am I a spokesman for anyone. Whether they agree with me or not.
I am not on a crusade. I am nobody's leader. If you want to represent me stand up and be honest enough about what you do that I am not a part of something dirty like this. Is that too freaking much to ask? |
