I would say it's alot more common amount certain stlyes or types but there are bad apples in every group and you have to realize the world revolves around money and people are always going to seek it. some are just willing to go alot further to get it.

Plenty of people offer good quality instruction and good schools and they are out to make money and there are also the mcdojos whitch sell you your belts.

yireses, don't pay any attention to them. They're just torqued because they aren't making any money at it!

Some people are good martial artists, some are good teachers, and some are good at marketing. A very few are good at all three. I don't like the marketers that are no good at the other two parts of the equation, but there's nothing I can do about it, so I don't get too worked up over it. Like everything, "caveat emptor", let the buyer beware.

I know sometimes you have to charge, and I am not against that. But sometime they leave you in a rank for month's and year's. Some times the whole class goes on in exercise. And when you leave de Kwon , dojo or school you didn't lean nothing new. They evan make up new ranks.
1) White
2) White yellow 1 strip
3) White yellow 2 strip
4) White yellow 2 strip
5) Orange
6) Etc...
You now what I mean?
