24/04/2024 - Vocal n° 68 - 00:02:50 :50: Problems with metal detectors

MB: No, what bothers me a lot is that, I'm still going to tell you, there is still something that bothers me a lot, which is that I see messages being passed, let's say, in the tone humor, of course, but from people who laugh a little at this story of holes in Dabo, in particular, and it's not just in Dabo, I still want to tell you, there are sites which are apparently larger and perhaps this is less visible, but... And so, what saddens me a little is that the real debate is not knowing whether we should make a hole or not.
There are some who write, I see messages, I receive them too, yeah if it becomes obligatory to go through the verification system, that's not normal, it's paying, etc., everything whatever we want. But what is shocking to me in all this is that in reality, those who are the troublemakers, or the hole-makers..., in reality, it is the people who work with detectors and who search all azimuths.
Someone who has a solution, who goes there, who locates himself, who makes his hole, it's there, it's not there, if it's not there, he plugs it back in, he go. Even if we are a little borderline in terms of legislation and authorization, it remains a practice that is relatively acceptable. Where it becomes unacceptable are people who, after making a first hole, take out the detector, do some raking, dig everywhere at a rate that doesn't even allow them to fill in again. And then it becomes a massacre.
So actually, the thing for me that is most to blame is the people who encourage or don't prohibit the use of detectors. This is what I find regrettable. A little flick of the detector, when we arrive at his area, on his hair pile, we test, it rings, so we say to ourselves, it could perhaps be there. Until then, I can understand, but from the moment we fall into the practice of raking, it's over, we're completely out of the woods.
So I would never have the power to prohibit anyone from digging. I reminded that the legislation is what it is, that it must still be taken into account. The owl is not in a place that is a priori sensitive, at least until today, in terms of environmental protection, archeology and what have you. But that does not prevent the fact that in areas such as Dabo recently, the local authorities are still starting to be concerned about the damage.
And I find that we still have to, we have to avoid laughing too much about it, because well, I'm the first to laugh about a lot of things, but on this chapter, it's extremely delicate. And in reality, the practices that are at the origin of all this are practices that could one day cause problems in the running of the game.
So, we can laugh about it, but we still have to remain aware that the sweeping with the radar and then with the detector and the wild searches, that's what ruins the atmosphere of the game a little and which annoys the players quite a bit. authorities responsible for sites in different locations. That's it, that was the little chapter, the little evening sermon.
