I'm a little worried about something that Sinister said earlier;
“a) The real life, £30 an apearence deal, where you pay NOTHING to GBI”
-O.O.C.-
Just to make this clear, you cannot charge ANYONE for a an appearance at any time, as the rights to Ghostbusters are owned by the movie company. If you charge for financial renumeration for an appearance as a Ghostbuster you are in infringing on copyright laws. So that simple £30 appearance charge could cost you a hefty fine and criminal prosecution if ANYTHING ever got back to ANYONE in connection with Ghostbusters.
-B.I.C-
I apologize to Louis and GBI if I am out of line (seeing that I am not a franchise owner…. yet).
Please can someone answer this question once and for all...

Again, major confusion… I thought part of the rights to becoming a GBI franchise allowed you to make apearences such as parties, and special occasions… Kinda like gorilla grams etc… Im realising I have a real lack of knowledge on this subject…

This is totally out of character here…
NO YOU CAN NOT MAKE MONEY IN ANY WAY AS A GHOSTBUSTER.
Not working parties, not going to conventions, not going on “busts” PERIOD.
Hope that clears it all up for you guys. I will now resume the role of Dr. Roberts…

I shall attempt to explain:
In Real life(IRL): You cannot make any money by doing anythign with your franchise. It is copyright infringement.
Online however you pretend that GBI is a real organization in which Mr.Tully manages. You pretend you make money, you pretend you pay fees, ect.
GBI isn't a real company, you pay no fees, you can't legally make any money.
Its alot like Online Role Play, mixed with acting IRL.

If this is just role play like what JESUSFREAK said, then do you really have to show/give copies those official documentions to your local government or whatever it said on some other Franchise website? Does your local government even have to know about your franchise?

The Fracnhise is a club. A Club. A Club where people dress up in suits and run around. No Government forms.

*Breaks into laughter* Whew! That's a relief, because, ya know, I was scared to death there for a second. I thought that if I ever opened a Franchise, I'd have to go the Mayor or the Governor, and get laughed out of the room by them. Of course there's nothing funny about opening a Franchise to me. It may be a comedy to some, but to me, it's DEAD serious…
