    Actually, there already is an organization called the "Maine Geocaching Association".

    And here's an interesting thread about the establishment of GCM.org and our name - to give you some perspective on the thought processes that were involved. Please read this to understand where we came from as a first step to discussing where we are going.

    Default A good discussion

    I have seen nothing, in my opinion, confrontational about this discussion, and some really good questions have been asked in the thread. I hope I am speaking for the majority here, as we would like the site to continue to grow. I think that change is hard for some and easy for others, while change is inevitable, how much will be the question.
    Why not live life like it is your last day....instead of pretending to be a member of the Peter Pan Club and believing you will be around forever.

    Ok, I have to step in and say something here. I was hoping not to. Everyone keeps saying this is Rick's site. For those of you that do not know who Rick is, that is me.

    Yes this site is owned by me. I do not consider it my site. I created this site many years ago to help the Geocaching Maine community unite. I have never and will never run this site as a dictator.

    I remember when the board was created. I was the one that pushed to have it created. I did this for two reasons.
    1. To have feedback and help from a group of people that I could ask for opinions from without have to deal with the long drawn out discussions in the forums. Sometimes it takes a long time to get something resolved in a forum discussion.
    2. In hopes that some day the Geocaching Maine web site and group would become an Association. I knew that with its growth that someday this would be needed.


    My main point here is, this is not Rick's site. This is your site.

    I checked out the "Maine Geocaching Association" site and it appears to be just links to shopping.

    It may well be less than it was at one time.

    I know very little about it - other than the fact that it exists. I believe it was a fairly active organization at one time.

    This is one of the countless links you have posted that most people cannot access, so I'm just wondering who actually has access to it? A list of people would be nice. Shouldn't be a problem, right?

    Sorry - I may have posted a non-accessible link a couple of times (I recently posted a link for the benefit of 1 member only - stating that it was restricted. I probably could sent it in a PM, but thought it was relevant to the discussion.

    I certainly have not posted "countless links" that are not accessible (two, perhaps?), and my only point in posting what I think are relevant links is to try and clarify - or correct erroneous information - posted by others.

    And certain threads were restricted to the people actually involved in the discussion.

    I've removed the link.

    All the more reason to have a board, IMHO.
