Re: !!!!!!GURPS Ghostbusters!!!!!!
That fanbook is egregiously in violation of our online policy, specifically the bits about, "Copyrighted text (like game rules and vignette text) may not be used without special permission of Steve Jackson Games," and, "This permission does NOT extend to copying our trade dress. In general, if you make your material look like a SJ Games product, it's over the line."
The fact that it includes huge swaths of text copied from existing GURPS books (and from other copyrighted books, such as the Ghostbusters RPG) also makes this document illegal to share -- it's a clear copyright violation. Grom, please stop distributing that file immediately -- remove it from your Google Docs and do not put it up on any other website. (Failure to do so means we have to go through the hassle of actual legal action, and no one wants that -- so please just remove it immediately.)
