Basically this is because c:geo then doesn't use the cache page itself for coordinates parsing but the map page instead. I suggest to remove the map page parsing for that case. That would have the following consequences:\r\n* For downloading new caches you need an account and you need to be logged in.\r\n* For caching only you still _don't_ need an account (and you might import GPX files).\r\n* Whenever a cache is parsed, the user can _rely_ on the coordinates to be correct and precise.\r\n\r\nThe basic idea behind this request is the following: The technical solution of having a fallback to the map parsing might seem clever for engineers but it has absolutely no value (or even a negative one) for the user because it can give him unreliable coordinates.","assignee":null,"id":2059880,"pull_request":{"patch_url":null,"html_url":null,"diff_url":null},"labels":[],"number":717,"title":"Only parse caches from web when logged in","html_url":"https://github.com/cgeo/c-geo-opensource/issues/717","closed_at":null,"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/cgeo/c-geo-opensource/issues/717","milestone":null},"action":"created","comment":{"created_at":"2011-12-04T21:13:18Z","updated_at":"2011-12-04T21:13:18Z","user":{"gravatar_id":"ed21467abf5281b236a6bc9ced426c11","id":1135669,"url":"https://api.github.com/users/jirikucera","login":"jirikucera","avatar_url":"https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/ed21467abf5281b236a6bc9ced426c11?d=https://a248.e.akamai.net/assets.github.com%2Fimages%2Fgravatars%2Fgravatar-140.png"},"body":"I am not only one using live map for looking for caches. I having this problem more often when I open the cache description - click \"Compass\" and \"Show on map\", than on live map itself. Actually if I open c:geo and open live map, it usually works better. Don't ask me why. \r\n\r\nAlso I had this problem even when I was logged in and I sent the report logs from my phone to help to fix it. \r\nc:geo maybe says \"I can't log in\" but it shows the wrong cache position and I think it is very serious problem. If people never heard about this \"travel cache\" issue and follow blindly c:geo cache position, they can end badly hurt. I don't think you realize how dangerous it is. Not in the city, but in the mountains for example. The cache description doesn't help you to find the correct location, even the hint doesn't need to be helpful, but your geocaching navigation should.\r\n\r\nDon't get me wrong, I love c:geo and I think it's great application, the best you can get, but I would like to see this problem fixed. \r\n\r\nI don't understand the atmosphere here. I just asked if you going to fix it. I wasn't offensive or something and I only got those stupid answers from you, like \"it is your problem, read description\" or \"fix it yourself\". You are designers, you should fix it!\r\n\r\nI also know this is open-source project and you are doing it in your free time, but it doesn't mean you have to actact like an ass.","id":3008944,"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/cgeo/c-geo-opensource/issues/comments/3008944"}}
