Words of Wisdom From Some “Masters”

 

Nut Cases

One of the organizations I had listed here objected to their organization being compared to other organizations and demanded their link be removed. The founder's emails included statements such as:

 “Our attorney will be notified tomorrow to begin action against you.”

“I have forwarded a copy of this email to the FCC as evidence of internet fraud.”

 “I also intend to notify all others on your website you have written slanderous and liable remarks about so that they may also pursue legal action against you.”

“You have 24 hours in which to remove your false claims or face civil and criminal prosecution”

An attached email from another esteemed master in the organization stated that “Maybe you should drive down here and kick his ass that may convince him that the xxx is a legitimate organization.”

The organization was another "unifying" organization that recognizes rank. The legal threats were the usual ones and were baseless. However, there are many unstable people on the Internet, so when they speak of hunting you down and getting physical, it is best to avoid them. I removed the link to avoid any other contact with the organization, but it is still out there, so be aware. From their site, it was unclear about how the recognizing and certifying processes interacted, so it is possible I could have been wrong and they may not have been a mill, but due to the belligerent attitude of the organization, I did not want to communicate with them any longer to find out.

Another organization sent an email that requested a link to their site be posted on TKDTutor. I checked out the site and sent an email declining to post a link, saying that the site appeared to be a certificate mill since it issued rank certificates upon sending an application along with a fee, while offering no other tangible benefits.

As result of my email, I received numerous email rants from the "master" and he emailed and phoned my instructor saying he was appalled that one of his students would reject the "masters" organization. His rational for the call, he was concerned about my mental health. As I said before, there are unstable people on the Internet.
