[QUOTE="AussieChris, post: 457711, member: 4915"] I dont mind the idea of sharing general locations but yeah not sure about X marks the spot type stuff :/ Especially outside of the Members Only section. Right now 49 members are online and 250+ guests. I dont begrudge someone who prefers anonymity, they might have a good reason to, but if a person uses this forum for an extended period of time gathering information without ever considering joining up and being a contributor, no way will I ever post anything specific. Imagine how many new mates Jamiealdridge would have if he posted a treasure map. :goldpan: I have been out plenty of times put in the yards test panning for decent ground only to turn up the following day to find someone who Id maybe crossed paths with, had a chat or even noticed them in the distance, working the very same spot. I recently hand winched a massive boulder out of a spot only to find the bloke who watched me do it running a highbanker there the following day. I would have stayed and worked it but it took me much longer than expected to move some decent sized rocks. Lesson learned, the swag (and some panafen plus) comes with me from now on. Dont get me wrong, I love company when Im prospecting. Plenty of people on here Id be happy to share info with, every now and then I hit good ground that you can pull 3-4g plus of alluvial in a day. Im just not drawing any maps! [/QUOTE]
