With the previous/existing envelope system, people who paid the camping fee ended up with a slip to display on their tent as proof of their payment.

With the new online system I may (or may not) receive a receipt affirming my payment BUT it will be at home, in Sydney, on my computer. How will the Ranger know this when he/she does their rounds of the camping areas to check compliance?

Even if the receipt is on a mobile device that is with me at Arapiles I'm not likely to display this on the outside of my tent while I'm away climbing.

Dumb!
