Might as well tell everyone your favorite fishing spot too.
Where granny hides the mattress money?
The pin number to your ATM.
Stuff you type on the internet is not limited to just those who read this forum when key words are typed into internet search engines.
Would you be happy if 30 people with MD's were at your favorite park tomarrow? (and don't take the high road on that question just for the sake of saving face in a public discussion, we all would be a bit miffed if our actions lessened our gains in this hobby.)
Wow. People like you who have joined this forum lately and make posts like this just amaze me. Did you miss the post about FRIENDLY when you joined? The OP didn't post the the secret to finding the key to fort knox, he posted something that we all do which is to help other forum members maybe
get a hand up on finding some extra silver. Just like a lot of people do with MD'ing. (maybe you should go into the other sections with your sarcasm and chastise them to) Did you just join this forum to give the guy !!!! about his post? Better start searching the whole site about CRH cause a lot of us do it and a lot of us post about it. You're whats wrong with this hobby (both CRH and MD'ing), you want it all to yourself and nobody else to be involved.
Sorry Mods if I've crossed the line on this one but it really seems in the last few months that some newer posters have been joining and posting things that go against what this forum was meant to be. This guys post wasnt an attempt at humor but was just someone that thinks he has the secret getting pissed off at someone else for posting about something that way more people know about than he realizes. (run on sentance, I know). Cant we start weeding out these kind of posters?
An anomaly, seems new and just doesn't realize how friendly the MD community really is compared to most hobbies.
Some of the beach guys out there seem a little more greedy about site selection, but not most of them that are members on
this forum.
Most posts here were more about being amused that he "discovered" something that was obvious to most of us.
The OP seems to have a adult and logical sense about it all so no real harm done in this case.

If this were true, I would never hunt with anybody that asks me to around my location, or share any tips about how I pick sites and hunt for jewelry, and 1/2 of my posts would be wiped out and erased from this forum.
Maybe I'm weird, but if I help someone find something that makes them happy it seems to make me happy.
Even if it happens at one of my sites that I hunt.
If I did a huge amount of research and somebody claim jumped me that would not make me happy, but most sites I hunt are public parks and open to everyone.
Also I have read that some members of some MD clubs can be very stand-offish and close minded about hunting sites, real jerks sometimes, too, but the ones in my club seem to be the opposite and most share most of their public locations and productive areas in parks and public places more freely.
