I just spotted a post on your site:

White Jetta stuck in sand by Balule, man out of vehicle digging for all his worth, child on cell calling actor from Grease.

12 comments already, some say they also spotted them yesterday looking for shampoo, some say it’s only going to get worse with the planned hotels, some say if SANParks were serious they would ban them, etc, etc.

I’m glad that at least there’s an interest from members and it makes me feel way more positive about the benefits of technology

Another quote from there, think this technology could be helpful, what do you think Theuns? -O

I like it better with the word threat in the sentence
You will have to reprimand Mr Lowveldboy for all his updates in the Tzenze area! It has come to my attention through the Tzenze updates by Rodger on SPF that I need to stay at Tzenze next opportunity I get Or should I blame the TR's on AW -O And members of the updates are becoming more interested in the North. Heaven forbid we solve the Southern overcrowding and spread them out

Robert, seeing it that way, I'm all for it now!

And, Balule is still South of Olifants!

Yes Cheetah, it is crystal clear that all these high tech reporting of sightings are having a huge impact on the ways of the bush, especially on how we used to find our Big5 sightings...where are the days when we just went out on the roads and did our own searching!?

This BBM thing is pirate viewing at its worst .

Of course I should not say it, but I agree with Serval. If it was not for the consequences it would only be the usual generation gab, but there are too many negative consequences that cannot be avoided.

Just an update on the cell phone coverage in KNP:

I have a mate who’s fairly well connected in the industry and 3 months ago they toured KNP with officials with the aim of providing signal throughout the park.

I don't know if that's good news or bad news!

It's very expensive news!...

For what??? Their own rules state no use of cell phones. Are they now trying to lure people into breaking their own rules??
