This is always going to be a highly charged issue. I remember Professor Forbach showing me diplomas from someone in Greece that had claimed rank from Professor Forbach's teacher, Aleju Reyes, dated several years after his teacher passed away. That is what happens when there arn't any videos, just think when they really feel they know something.
Further than this , how are we supposed to proceed if someone has been following a oprogram we set up and then wants some form of qualification. This seems to work in universities around the world. Are we so much better than they are?
I am curious how many people have bought Professor Forbach's tapes and somehow feel entitled to something more from that purchase. Are there black belts now in the system who have nothing more that those tapes to connect to the family?
I think it is great that Professor Forbach put these tapes together, and the second series was even better than the first with all the old timers lending a hand and the better production values. But I ask again. Are the any people out there feeling that they are blackbelts because of that purchase?
It cannot be controlled anymore, so I am acting the devil's advocate to see how you feel.
