how do caches work exactly?

[vitamin]

sorry in advance if it's a dumb question!!

well fam, i read guides and stuff about securing bought uc's ( haven't bought any - yet ;^) ) and i see a lot of talk of google caches
but do caches still,,,,, exist,,,,,, after capchas?
for example, if i search up "http://www.neopets.com/petlookup.phtml?pet=star" on google i don't find the pet's lookup (or any lookup at all)
the same happens if i search "www.neopets.com/~star" tho i do find some petpages
AND if i search "http://www.neopets.com/userlookup.phtml?user=star" i dont find userlookups at all

is there another way to see caches or am i not understanding something? o:

(also i hope its obvious but i,,,,,, don't own this pet lol i dont even know who owns it i searched for a random word k)

As far as I'm aware, since TNT implemented the captcha, cache doesn't work anymore.

I don’t believe caches work anymore!

^ They're correct, if you force a cache for your pets now people find it suspicious! (go figure, you can't win with the PC police)

thank y'all for the replies!!
so if i were to buy an uc i could just place it directly on a legit account without worrying about ppl snooping around caches?

also @(you need an account to see links) how do you force a cache if u don't mind me asking? o: just so i can make sure i dont do it by mistake lol

You can only force a cache on pet pages as I understand. Basically if it's visited a ton of times or you update it very, very regularly (write a bio 1 character at a time for instance) it is very likely for the spider to cache your page.

You can also tell google to cache the page on their website somewhere, so don't put your petpage into that form

thank you!! doesnt sound like something i could easily do by mistake so thats reassuring ouob

Yeah the only thing you have to worry about now is petpage caching and those are pretty uncommon, especially if the pet is inactive. Honestly, it's not even something even the report happys really bother checking anymore so I wouldn't be too concerned with it.
