+MissJenn Posted November 16, 2010 Share Posted November 16, 2010 The Groundspeak Knowledge Books contain helpful information for every player of our games. It was created by Lackeys and Reviewers working together. http://support.Groundspeak.com/ Start with the options you'll find on the left margin of the page. You can browse the many articles that way. Some Knowledge Book pages have been highlighted and others have been marked as "most helpful" by geocachers like you. This thread will be a growing list of recently-added pages. As such, you may want to "watch it" or subscribe to it so that you are alerted when new pages become available. Thanks for reading! Link to comment

+MissJenn Posted February 14, 2011 Author Share Posted February 14, 2011 Guidelines For Placement, Listing And Logging We have edited the guidelines page: http://www.geocachin...guidelines.aspx What did we do, basically? Note that it has three major sections (Placement, Listing and Logging) Made it easier to read and to understand by re-organizing and shortening. The longer explanations are in a whole new Knowledge Book which are an extension of the guidelines: http://support.groun...g=kb.book&id=11 There is a different KB chapter within the Knowledge Book of Geocaching called the Review Process which is really separate from the actual Guidelines.
