< on 11/9/2007 9:28 PM >
|  | | | Lately i have been stopped by the authorities attempting to gain entry into a few abandoned hospitals, I'm guessing because of the time of year limiting the amount of cover on the surrounding foliage, since now i have never been caught. Upon being asked for ID I was thinking to myself would it matter if I had a UER ID, such as a picture, name, member since, some UER guidelines, like not to vandalize, not to remove artifacts, etc, only view and record history, not too much detail but enough to give the police proof of your intentions.
Would you use one if you had it? Why and Why Not?

| | | | No, I wouldn't.
It would not be official government ID, so it would mean nothing to the officer.
If you are risking being detained/ticketed/charged/etc. by the police, the last thing I would want to do is flash them some cute club membership. Just explain what you are doing, or learn to lie really well, in a curteous and respectful manner. This will probably do you far more good in the long run.

| | | | I'll try to be pleasant and helpful to new members whenever I can. However, this thread is only a few lines below the one you just started:
http://www.uer.ca/...d=1&threadid=50088
Not generally considered a good idea to identify yourself as a member of some sort of group, appears to be the general consensus. Been 1,000 threads on this in just a couple of years.
Welcome to UER though! 
I have changed my personal exploring ethics code. From now on it will be: "Take only aimed shots, leave only hobo corpses." Copper scrappers, meth heads and homeless beware. The Jonsered cometh among you, bringing fear and dread.

| | | | UER is just a website it has no authority over who is allowed to trespass and who can't, and showing a cop or a guard a "UE card" would be like saying "hey its ok, i do this all the time" which would just get you into more trouble because it shows that you planned it out ahead of time and you think you're above the law or something. its best to just apologize and leave, dont go into details about your personal life with the cops

| | | | Why everything has to be UER-specific? I thought this was just one of the many urban exploration -oriented sites, not the official international organized urban exploration community.
If I could choose, I'd show my passport, since I think it has the best (and most recent) picture and there's plenty of colourful stickers to look at. The student union card would come next if it was an official ID card because it would make me look like a militarist pig (the picture is from my military passport). The driver's licence, which is the only ID I carry with me all the time, has by far the worst picture, but since it's the only one that fits in my wallet...

I wouldn't even wear a UER t-shirt while I was exploring. Why bring even more attention to this website than is needed.
You are 29 years old take responsibility for your own actions.
" But UER told me to do it "
Sorry dumb idea.. Its been asked before and I am sure it will be asked many more times.

| | | | There should be UER team Jersey's tags, and business card. The jersey's could be all spooky and have the #13 on them and the business cards could say who they exclusively explore with.
But to be serious, why draw attention to what you are doing?
40+ year olds with Myspace pages are not cool, they are pediphiles on the prowl. Buyer beware. |

| | | | how about just a ue id card not uer? you know, i'd try to say that i was just taking pictures because the place could be demolished before someone else sees it and it would be a shame not to archive the pre-demolished state. then if they asked me to prove it, id show them a ue card. like one made professionally or something.

| | | | No one would ever believe that.
Fact is, you want to be believable? And legit? Buy personal liability insurance and ask for permission. Be legal. It's entirely possible; a few of us (there are many more that don't post here) go that route.
A UE or UER card will only get heat drawn to this site and to yourself.

Also, UER ID is just plain retarded, even a UE ID is.
