I've been very disappointed by some negative logs and a few negative comments in emails. But I get more positive comments than negative comments as a rule. And I'm always proud when a new cacher finds one of my caches as their first find! The big problem I've had is that one of the most negative players in the area is also known to be a reviewer and more. Thier attitude seem to be determined to push as many people as possible from the game. That is bad playing and bad business. Whenever I feel myself getting negative about the game, I take a step back and remind myself it is supposed to be fun. I'll walk away and come back to it with a new view when it can be fun again, or just move onto another part of the game. This says so much – and says it well!

This is why I prefer caching alone ;-) That way I can go after what I like, and not have to worry about the other person. I don't complain about the ones I don't like - i just don't DO them!
