Maybe I'm missing something....but where's the interest of GBI if everything is "fine n' dandy" all the time. I don't think that "IA" went overboard.
I guess it was a combo of that, no making GBLV official without a site, and Rich's kinda strange reaction to the map...lucky for me I guess that I didn't get around to pointing out that he needed to move the NC dots to the left a little bit to correctly represent me and the Asheville-based franchise...!

Oh, grife, and here I find out why I was lynched...
It's like rejoining the community all over again. Why is a GBI wizard so unbelievable? They're using RGB...there were "magic" and "wizards" all over RGB (cartoon and MOREso the comic).
Then there was this:
My response:
Seriously, that isn't cool.
Hmmmmm:
*sigh* Oh well...

Aw hell....you mean to tell me we have MORE people going on actual ghost HUNTS "as" Ghostbusters? *wishes Fritz had a 'beat your head against the brick wall' smiley* *...or at least the puking Slimer handy* I don't do the REAL ghost hunts anymore...part of it was the distance to meet with people, part of it was lack of local stuff to check out. Part of it was something that frankly scared me out of it that I'd rather not go into detail about... But for all that I might have stayed in it longer....IF I could have got it through people's heads that all of the Ghost- BUSTING things I do is 100% role-play! I honestly don't understand...I wouldn't bring my costume or any GB props on a hunt for love or money. I was doing the GB costume/fic thing a good while before I took up ghost HUNTING... To paraphrase Ray, guys like the CMGBs are either certified geniuses or authentic whackos. Because having experienced a little of both worlds, I can almost promise that as much crap as WE (GB fans) give them, it pales in comparison to the venom that legit ghost hunters likely sling their way....

And it just makes US catch more flack from people who start going "Oh, so you think that ghost catching stuff is real?"

Stuff like this makes me glad I never got involved with the whole franchise bit. Almost did, but fortunately the guy spearheading that disappeared.

The immediate fallout as far as I'm concerned is that I'm delaying the revisions to the GBI timeline--I'm not sure whether I should still put Sacramento on it.

Well they quite GBI, so this shouldnt be affecting us anymore than it already has.

Well, if they don't really release any fanfics and don't operate by the Omnibus Timeline, or have Timeline friendly events then I don't think they can be incorporated... not everyone can be...
I'm glad things have simmered down between the two GBIs, and I agree Fritx... it was probably a good thing that idea we were working on never took off the ground... as it was being prepared in annoyance and not clear headedness.

But since they appear to have some regard for the animation concepts (they based their own GBI board around it) I think they probably, on the whole, could've theoretically ended up more accomidating that certain other franchises, who pretty much go "You use all that stuff from the cartoons? Eeew..." Well, yeah. But it's still there just in case...

If the Minnesota people want to be taken seriously as ghosthunters, they should distance themselves from Ghostbusters. It seems they want the best of both worlds. In this case, it might not work. They're walking a fine line..."Choose. Choose & perish."

Long story short...
A new franchise had a disagreement, they left and formed their own GBI by themselves, insulted us on it, we got mad, they got mad, we both agreed to disagree and stopped hating.
