[QUOTE="outboard, post: 105855, member: 3261"] nah it is not an issue, seriously I do not come to a prospecting forum to look at pictures of people back filling holes, putting their rubbish in bags and taking a crap in a carefully measured 200mm hole, we are all prospectors, and all of us love the bush and all of us look after the bush because we love it (all of us live in it for at least some time during any year) That makes us all conservationists and just because some clown with no idea of what we do wants to point a finger and call us environmental vandals does not mean we should not post photo's of us and our loved ones enjoying our hobby. You pointed out the recent report , if you have read it you realise they do not need any photos nor any evidence of any kind, they propose banning sluicing because commercial dredging disturbed rivers. The only way that proposal could have made it into their report is if the make up of the committee lacked a representative of the users group (prospectors and fossickers) which is in contravention of the act under which it was formed and therefore illegal, which would make the legislation based on their recommendations invalid. Rather then worry about how a photo on a prospecting forum "looks" to a "Greenie" that might be trolling the forum, write to the minister involved and explain to him how he was misled [/QUOTE]
