What do you do when you come across a fellow prospector/detector?

[QUOTE="HeadsUp, post: 104162, member: 414"] Um yeah A very small minority seem to have a green eyed monster eating their brain and when the character involved suddenly thinks you're after THEIR gold , then all sorts of nasty games appear. I don't really get too attached to gold or money ,but that little minority give me the impression they would run over their own grandmother if they thought she had a 0.2 gram nugget hidden up her cardigan .... I was once told by a bloke that " I should f**k off out of Tuena coz people don't like where you're going" (It was a river on Crown land) ..... I was also once given a deliberate bumm steer by some people who knew I was going to work a spot they liked , so they told me I should go and work "that hole over there where con & Lisa found heaps of 0.3 and 0.5 gram nuggets yesterday" Yeah I got conned by it and that hole I was pointed to turned out to just have the usual pisssy little flakes the area is known for Those two incidents offended me so much I didn't even go out for a dig anywhere for 3 - 4 months afterwards , and the spot I wanted to work got smashed by 4 - 6 carloads of prospectors every weekend for months afterwards. Lol [/QUOTE]
