You guys all need to lighten up. This is what's wrong with society. No one is here to be judged, it's just human behavior, sex is sex. You locked the The Aristocrats thread, which would've been fun. The other thread was locked as well. You guys are too pent up, why do you enforce your rules so strictly? Have you no sense of humor? Have you never had a dirty thought in you life? It's harmless fun, nobody gets hurt. I think you guys like having the power to lock threads. Why must you cater to a younger audience, what's wrong with you? Who's looking over your shoulder? You guys really need to break from the constraints of what is taboo, and start thinking independently. Adults candidly talk about sex. Because we have sex, it's fun, we like it, and we'll continue doing it. I started making cracks about your virginity and instead of being jovial and joking along, someone got offended. Laughing stuff like that off would've been fun and funny. It's what I would've done. I myself took an inward shot, someone called me a 40yr. Old virgin, and I only argued the fact that I'm not 40. I love to laugh, and I do have an odd sense of humor. But for you guys to say it's not acceptable is just wrong. Ghostbusters is a comedy, and that's what I associate it with, not Ghosts or the paranormal. Half the movie was improvised by the actors. Please lighten up or choose a more serious movie to hold in high regards like Sophie's Choice or Schindler's List. Leave comedy to people who know how to have fun. After reading this you mods are going to jump on me and say you do have senses of humor and know how to have fun, and that I'm wrong for posting obscenities because kids might read this. Kids shouldn't be sheltered, nor should they be exploited. But, if they can enjoy Ghostbusters with the rest of us, then they can enjoy mature humor. I watched Stripes, Animal House, Porky's, Groundhog Day,and many other mature movies before I was ten years old. I understood their themes, and humor. Since childhood I've been a fan of George Carlin and Richard Pryor. These are people in the comedy community, people who wouldn't mind associating themselves with dirty humor or Ghostbusters, but I can tell you they would have a huge problem associating with the prudes that run this site.

Oh for crying out loud… and thanks for making a topic even more off topic…

You locked the The Aristocrats thread, which would've been fun.

Nobody who replied to your Aristocrats topic seemed to find it fun, and as has been stated multiple times, this site is run by Chad to cater for all ages, and the Aristocrats is not something I'd day would cater for all ages. I have nothing against sex… but I don't expect to see it when I post on a Ghostbusters message board.

You guys are too pent up, why do you enforce your rules so strictly?

You don't even know us yet presume to know about us. We ‘enforce’ rules if there's something that conflicts with the rules set down when the board was set up. You only happen to have gotten so much attention is because you've been posting less then amusing humour.

Have you no sense of humor? Have you never had a dirty thought in you life?

We do have senses of humour… I run a webcomic and he's a writer… and yes… I'm sure both of us have had dirty thoughts…

It's harmless fun, nobody gets hurt.

Lame comparisons with Ghostbusters fans and messagboard versions of ‘The Aristocrats’ aren't exactly ‘fun’. There's plenty of stuff you could get involved in which doesn't involve sex that can keep your mind busy for a few minutes.

I think you guys like having the power to lock threads.

Being a Mod isn't ‘sunshine and lollipops’, you have to make unpopular decisions and have to deal with things if someone decides to go spare and start spamming the board.

Why must you cater to a younger audience, what's wrong with you? Who's looking over your shoulder?

Err, because the site's made for an audience including young people, and we were chosen because Chad thought we were best for the job.

You guys really need to break from the constraints of what is taboo, and start thinking independently.

I do think independently, I don't need someone who hasn't even talked about Ghostbusters on a Ghostbusters message board to tell me what might be wrong with me or one of my mates.

Ghostbusters is a comedy, and that's what I associate it with, not Ghosts or the paranormal. Half the movie was improvised by the actors.

Which relates to your jokes how?

Leave comedy to people who know how to have fun. After reading this you mods are going to jump on me and say you do have senses of humor and know how to have fun, and that I'm wrong for posting obscenities because kids might read this.

Read one of Iain's stories or one of the webcomics I've done, we do have senses of humour.

Kids shouldn't be sheltered, nor should they be exploited. But, if they can enjoy Ghostbusters with the rest of us, then they can enjoy mature humor.

Who said anything about exploitation? We're talking about how you're not complying by the rules and trying to shift attention away from you.

I'm posting this just so I'm not accused of ‘ignoring’.

You responded to everything I wrote exactly how I thought you would. It's as if we had a psychic connection. You just restated all my points back to me, and made no good argument. I don't support your opinions, and how you run this site. I don't know what to say to get you to see things differently. Which is a huge drawback of being an adult, your stance on a subject never falters. Nobody out of their teens years seems to be able to change their opinions, because no matter what #1 is always right. What if I compared you guys to Walter Peck, what would that do? Nothing probably. You'll just say something like,“That's ridiculous….you're off topic…..kids read this….Blah,blah,blah-freakin'-blah!” As if it meant someting to anyone else but you. How many kids are on this site? And why are you fully grown men talking to them? So whatever, to get back on topic, "Yeah the Stay Puft was in the movie wasn't he, I was so excited when I saw it, I made marshmellow in my pants!!! YEAH!!

I'm just wondering what's going on in “Rusty”'s mind that he would come to a Ghostbusters web site to talk about sex.

Does he go to porn sites to talk about cartoons?

I don't appreciate it either, and from coversation neither do Iain or Chad (The other Mod/Administrative team online at the moment)

Heh, there's an amusing irony in that if it were true. :p

From I can see, folks, is that he would rather argue his points of views rather then follow the rules of the boards. The fact of the matter is there is a possibility of members who would rather break/ skip reading the rules then to follow orders instead. I also fear that there probably underage members or viewers that viewing this site right now and here they come seeing a site about someone wanting to post adult themes on the boards, something that would give this site a bad name. That was a problem that I also thought of when I was once a moderator for GBN.

It would be absolutley absurd and disgraceful for Ghostbusters Central to have an adult only part of the message board. For what reason? I'm sorry but I guess most of us here don't have a sick enough mind to understand the reasoning behind it. If you want an adult only forum then why don't you join one huh? When you go shopping you don't go to the butcher to get fruit salad now do you?

Yeah very disgraceful indeed. What's the point of even having a adults only section on this board? Gb Central is for everyone, no inapporate stuff allowed. So there is no way that it's going to happen to here. :-@

Seriously guys, this is a GHOSTBUSTERS forum… wtf is in the head of a person that tries to bring somethign adult themed to a Ghostbusters site? I mean, does EVERYTHING on the internet have to be corrupted and fall into that stereotype? jeez… it pisses me off.

Rusty Trombone
And as adults on this site, which most of us are, especially to like Ghostbusters, and the cartoon.

im only 14 and i love the movies and cartoons
