Dear Bangtan Academy students and staff, I can't begin to imagine how you are feeling but my heart and thoughts have been with you all day.
Please accept this cabin and use the replies/qts if you're looking for people or just for cosy activities .
Students were begging to know what was going on. We kept being told they were working on it but we started to question why isn’t any upper staff saying anything… seeing what was going on backstage. It makes sense now
A few days ago at Bangtan Academy, a group of staff members volunteered to be part of a mediation team in order to help work though the many issues coming out from staff. (If you’ve searched Bangtan Academy, you’ll know what these issues are.)
@letstrytobekind Oh man all of this!! I feel like that’s what I never spoke up when something made me uncomfortable. I had just found this “family” and I didn’t wanna lose it .
@bulletproof_mca Probably because we heard on almost every VC that the hope would be to get paid for it one day they want the money, power, and clout. That’s it
@PeulenSaskia@BangtanAcademy_ That’s the first thing I try to do and if I don’t I use they them just to be safe. It as the owners and people who run the place and make the rules. I think it shouldn’t be a question of forgetting since it’s a rule they wrote and say they honor
The emphasis on cheating always struck me as a weird cultural strain within Bangtan Academy, as did the infantilization (BA was PG in the extreme), overall strictness, & staunch position against repetition of classes and assignments. This thread unpacks the cheating aspect well.
Woke up to find the Bangtan Academy server closed... "If you do not agree with the direction we are taking, we wish you well in whatever new journey you take" ...?? Is that your idea of democracy? I'm so disappointed. Shame on you.
Bangtan Academy shutting down for an extended break with literally zero warning, after three days of letting people believe mediation would go ahead and the people in power might be ready to listen and enact change after all... disappointed isn't strong enough a word.
Idk if this has been said yet but.. The Tannies would be disappointed in you Bangtan Academy Admin. No ifs. No buts. They would be truly disappointed. This is not what the Tannies stand for. This is not what Adorable Representative MC for Youth do.
