Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

Nothing left to move and, yes, those green bugs are all inaccessible otherwise I'd have infected them too. Slightly disappointed by the sole amber traffic light but it only appeared today and is on the opposite side of the circle from where my bug was up on the fell

What happens if you mark someone else’s bug as inaccessible? And is that ethical? As in CAndy’s pic? I’d think to just leave it alone.

CAndy, you're not wrong about the relay, it's basically at the end of my road but i'd stopped the run further up the street, it's too late now though, someone's gone and scattered jewels all over the place again!

That’s definitely a luxury having all those roads P.DuB!! Also wondered about marking others bugs inaccessible but decided to just leave them for now, if they don’t get cleared at least noting else goes there!

Don't know what happens if you mark somebody else's bug as inaccessible. My thinking about leaving them is similar to Snoot's - while they're on the map they're not costing me anything, they're preventing other markers spawning in those spots and, if the owner doesn't care about the accumulating penalties then why should I worry?

I seem to recall that if you mark someone else's bug as inaccessible it disappears and isn't regenerated. Although I sometimes mark jewels etc. in the sea as inaccessible I leave the bugs to live out their life cycle.

My belief is the same as V'rap. Best to just leave them.

JCB, have you considered taking up swimming, or windsurfing :-)

Before going for my run this morning I checked the Fetchpoint map to see what was available. Oh goody, there's a diamond in a woods right next to my route, I'll pop in and get it.

Before uploading my run, as usual I checked the map again. The diamond had gone! Its spot was taken by an inaccessible no-entry marker! Why? Why does the person (from outside my circle) who marked it as inaccessible think they know my village better than I do?

Hi Flatlander,
I am sorry, about that. It was not done with reference to you. No I don't but I know it a bit. I thought it was inaccessible. Over that way, there is land that Google thinks is passable, but isn't. The 'private land' signs give me that impression. I have reported that as inaccessible on Google Maps, and my intendion was the same here.
