Actually Trigger

Most of them will be what are called " Bots" which are little puta bacteria, doing searches.
So say on Google you type in " Pay" or " Dirt" up will come this site. Gavin would know more about that then me.

What you look at is even targeted. I was looking at detector coils for some time on google. Now I get a side bar with Detector Coil advertisements, on many places I go to. Oh and granny's looking for a quickie. Lol.

Firefox and IE have to make money somehow, as does google. But yes I bet a few are real and just looking for information or testing us out for a possible scam.

There is also a more innocent explanation -in some cases as members may be like me and be too lazy to log in unless they have something to say.

I used to be logged in all the time but now i have to re enter my password each time and for some reason my mac refuses to remember it. Started around when this site was upgraded but i'm not 100 percent sure sure it is pay dirt or just my mac.

Sad to say it is laziness on my part. Trev Alty can attest to my lack of energy.

I'm also in the same boat as most iPad keeps logging me out and can't be bothered logging in. The problem I see with people complaining about people just browsing and taking info and not contributing them selfs, best way is to not disclose your honey holes or favourite spots or locations give a general area etc. Gold makes people go funny and can show someone's true colours..
Just my 2 cents :)

Some of that's also maybe because there are a few people like me that have used the site as a resource but as newbies don't feel like they have much useful to contribute 8-) Anyway I decided to properly join today and try post a few things to attempt to contribute.

Well hello folks! Eastern North Carolina, USA here.

LOL....I joined and got banned after just one post. It was an understandable mistake and I'm glad it was straightened out quickly. I'm sure most people do like I did and hunt around sites like this looking info. That's what I was doing until I saw I might have something useful to contribute.

I think that when the weather is this crap no one is going out fossiking nor mining, so there is not much to talk about,just a lot of folks just sitting around wishing for the better weather so they can get out and play. If you have nothing much to say it seems hardly worth while logging on. Roll on summer
