They are porous and made with organic compounds, so they soak in moisture and support mold growth. The bottom line is: basements are prone to water problems. Even the driest basements are at risk. If not from seepage, from things like a leaky pipe, a broken washing machine hose, or a corroded water heater. You should not use anything organic to finish a basement, unless you don't mind replacing finishes repeatedly over the years. Drywalls are not the best choice for basements.
