There are several things you are incorrect about, I will point out a few just to show you do not do your homework before posting.

Not being able to say "Navicache" in the forums is in fact true...you say it has to be reviewed first right? okay, lets test that... go into Geocaching.com and make a post saying something like "I just found a neat new Geocaching site called Navicache.com" and see how far that gets you, Yet you can go into the Navicache forums and say Geocaching.com all day with the Mods sitting right there and no action taken as long as you are not rude.

Secondly, "Quinn" was a member of the original Sci/Geo news group where this all started even before Jeremy walked in, so with Navicache in place now, and Geocaching starting in that news group with everyone having expressed interest how can you say Quinn would never have even heard of it...he was right there!

Did you watch the ABC news story on national TV in the US?
Quinn and family did a great job promoting the sport. Jeremy in his own forum voiced his anger that Quinn never mentioned Geocaching.com in the whole story,and only pushed his own. Not once was the word Navicache used. When Quinn Replied that he did his best to push both sites on the news and that they were edited out Jeremy had nothing to say.
How many times does Jeremy mention Navicache when he gives interviews?

Not sure why you find it so hard to find caches in Germany on Navicache. Go to the main page, click link that says "Caches" and then scroll to Germany...how hard is that?

Germany does not post on Navicache because they have a forum already in place. But if Navicache was not so popular in Germany then how come on the German official Geocaching site does it list everything "Navicache" above Geocaching.com? Here is the German link to that site... http://www.geocaching.de/

You can see all the Navicache icons above Geocaching icons.

BTW, it was posted by the German admin of that site that he does not like the way Geocaching.com has gone so commercial, thus the reason why he is telling people of Navicache.

Remember...Bigger does not always mean better.
