If you feel threatened or left out by another team, you could also grow a pair and just beat them at their own game by being more awesome. I don’t understand how some people are content to play second chair to pretend costume dress-up groups. “B teams” and “support branches” are really just your own admission that you aren’t as good as someone else, and are perfectly willing to let them tell you what to do with your hobby of pretend costume dress-up.
Ssssshhhhh…Don’t go revealing my plans to rule the world just yet. I still need to get the car put together and the other equipment and I will show how awesome I can be. 
this guy is of my own mind. im not second fiddle to a bunch of schmucks that arent even local. i learned alot from the orlando team, exactly what not to be. the left overs are where the money’s at kids, and the better part, is we let anyone, from anywhere on the team and our numbers dont have a cut off. except when it comes to assholes.
Thank you Mr. protoncharger. and yes the left overs is where the money’s at, I’ve been handing out advertisements all month and last month. And most people like the idea of having a wide spread group, not just one single group that picks and chooses who does what.
Ok, my two cents… take it or leave it…
I can understand what is being said on both sides… On one hand being a franchise comes a sense of pride… Someone else comes along takes your franchise name, and denies you even exist… well… yeah that tends to make one rather irate…
At the same time though, I must admit, if someone else came along, with the idea of making a Lehigh Valley franchise… I suppose my ego would be wounded, however, I certainly wouldn’t get too mad at them, considering they may even do a better job than I did, considering my franchise hasn’t even got off the ground yet, people coming and going and all… so to be honest, if they could get theirs off the ground, as long as they didn’t swipe my logos or concept art without my permission, I’d support them… maybe even join em myself.
Now if you contacted these chicago GBs and were friendly to them, and they acted like pricks… yeah, I’d be mad too… I understand the feeling… Especially if you worked your ass off to put your franchise together, It would be nice to be shown some respect, that’s for sure.
Also what Bradboss was saying:
Yeah LVGB operates outside of GBI too… Wouldn’t mind being part of GBI, but since this franchise is far from ready, I don’t see that happening any time in the near future… And of course as for two PA franchises… naturally LVGB and SCGB are two completely different city franchises, however… as fellow PA franchises, I for one wouldn’t mind helpful colaborations between the two… I wouldn’t mind helping where I can, and I for one wouldn’t mind helpful assistance myself. LOL
GBI wont try to stop you from being a franchise.
Are these ‘other’ chicago busters part of this site? Do they even matter in the eyes of anyone else here. So far have they only entered a video contest? Just be a better team and show them up, beats crying.
the other team…as it seems, is just a bunch of dudes who threw together some props for Sony’s contest. That’s it. I can’t believe you actually got upset over this.
We stopped responding to this thread a almost month ago, are you done beating the dead horse yet?
I was thinking we could beat the horse to death, beat the dead horse, then bust the dead horse and put in it our ECU.
I can totally see both sides of this arguement, but I think I’m gonna side with Doc_LaVoy. It may not be real, as PC has been saying alot, but if these other Chicago Ghostbusters have a bad attitude and act in a way that would make them not welcomed by the community, then that is a real problem. What if Doc_LaVoy and his group try to get into a chairity event and because of the bad attitude of the other group the charity won’t accept their help? I see no problem with there being to groups in one city, but for God’s sake act like adults and treat each other with respect!
how the hell does that have to do with this topic???
couldnt agree more
I’m locking this, what needed to be said was done a long time ago.
