What do I do? should be disabled

[Tiger-Eyes]

I went to a cache site this week and the cache had definately gone, The remains of the box were in pieces as it had been mown when the verges got cut. I logged a needs maintenace log on the cache page and noticed that someone before me had mentioned it was missing on the 5th July, I have emailed the cache owner but if I don't get a reply should I post a sba log?

Also on the same day one of the caches I did was hidden in a small hole in a stone wall (not dry stone) the clue says "on the wall" and previous caches have obviously been lifting every lose stone to try and find it (it is very hard to spot), I personaly think this wall is being damaged by caches, Should I email the owners stating my concerns or would I be interfering and should mind my own?

Q1........post a sba log

Q2........email the owners stating your concerns.......at the end of the day we dont want anymore damage to the wall.

Q1 - leave it a couple of weeks and see if the owner posts a maintenace log - if not post a SBA.

Q2 - ditto Richie_EB4

Q1 - Needs maintenance. The fact that it's missing doesn't mean it should be archived.... it's July - lots of people (including some inconsiderate cache owners) go on holiday in July, and won't necessarily have 24/7 access to the interwebbb or email.

2 - email the owner. If the clue says "on the wall", but it's now "in the wall", is it where it was originally hidden - or was one of the previous finders one of those people who thinks they should rehide it "just a little better than originally" (in their opinion)

Q1 resolved, they have disabled the cache though maybe we should have a SBD - should be disabled option to cover this, sometimes owners don't see the logs are away etc and it is very dissapointing to travel to a cache thats not there,
Q2 I have tried a polite email and hope I don't offend, it turns out that it is the same person they changed the owned by name on 1 of the caches so with 2 emails to them it looks as if I'm the cache police h34r:

Q1. A good reason to post DNF's -Lets other know there may be a problem.
I'd still go for a high difficulty cache, if a DNF was posted by a newer/less experienced cacher, depending on what they say in the log. eg "arrived late in the day, getting dark, so called it a day" is still worth a look!

Q2. Wouldn't worry about it! At least they are aware their caches are being watched... h34r:
