[QUOTE="user 22230, post: 651061, member: 22230"] Probably best to get used to it as more and more land owners are simply becoming fed up with the general "do as I please" attitude of so many. The solution is easy for them, just lock the gates. I can't speak to much for the opal side of things but i can assure you that the opinion of "scratchers" by many station owners is not good, and believe it or not they don't need the 15 to 20 bucks a day or the attitudes of many they have to deal with as a result. How do you educate people ? Buggered if I know. Has also been noted that as the values of gold etc rise the attitudes of many "new" to the search lowers. I can say for certain that if you currently have access to land then cherish and value it, otherwise you will lose it. Happy hunting 👍 [/QUOTE]
