Another day, and more and more silending from the side of admin.
People's goodbye messages are getting deleted if there is even a teeny-tiny bit of criticism or unhappiness shared.
#Remove_Bangtan_From_Your_Name
dear bangtan academy, it's really disrespectful to delete people's goodbyes because they had fair criticism of your actions, which you deem "rude".
it can't be easy to be told again and again to reflect but maybe...take time and ask why dozens of people have been saying this?
@BangtanAcademy_ honestly it's high time. the behavior going on there TOTALLY UNSUPERVISED is not something anything remotely official sounding should ever be associated with at this point #Remove_Bangtan_From_Your_Name
bangtan academy threatened legal action against anyone who tells the truth about them yet has been illegally using the bangtan name and pretending to be the boys for YEARS and collabing with someone who stalks the boys. https://t.co/TnIUSLtRo3 here is their notion to share
. @BangtanAcademy_ is spreading hate and silencing those who speak against it yet giving a platform to those who support their hatred all under the name of BTS. #Remove_Bangtan_From_Your_Name
I love how no one has explained or taken accountability for any of the abuse that went on from admins. I’ve seen the new rules for volunteers, they’re HORRIFYINGLY exploitative & vague. Didn’t BTS write a song about abusive education environments? 🤔🤔
I'm free from bangtan academy. The most sickening experience for the last week. Instead of acknowledgement and teamwork with the students they decided on dictatorship. Hope they will change the name
I'm just gonna apologize now to my TL if you see a lot of this for a bit - I don't engage with drama, but the stuff with @BangtanAcademy_ is not that, it's important, and the only thing they seem to care about is public reputation.

Really truly hope that the people left at Bangtan Academy can convince admins to remove Bangtan from the name, and stop using bots in the members image. It does not represent the group, the guys or the community they encourage well.
I left Bangtan Academy today and I will seriously side-eye anyone who decides to stay and study there knowing what has happened. Overlooking transphobia, ableism, racism, and more because you want to “avoid drama” and “just study” makes you complicit in my eyes. That’s all ☺️
i left bangtan academy today. if you added me here in my departure, pls tell me who you are/were in the server cause i'm so bad with names lol.
for anyone waiting to join, pls, search ba on twt and read the stories. it's not a safe place & they need to get bangtan out their name
This is mainly because the staff and students who were fundamental to me feeling safe, welcome and happy at Bangtan Academy have all been forced to leave or have been removed for standing up for the rights of others and themselves
I’ve finally read the updates and posts in Gen chat. And I can say with full confidence that the Bangtan Academy I once knew and loved is well and truly gone. The server is not a caring and nurturing community for a fellow ARMY like myself, so I’ve left BA
Honestly, if you don't want or know how to get caught up on the evidence of all Bangtan Academy's transgressions, this one announcement should be all anyone needs to know if you're still considering joining.
not really sure what people are staying over there for. seems like they're keeping the toxic structure in place while giving up the things that made it a really unique learning community. anyone who thinks they are stuck there, please explore other language learning options.
Up until a couple of months ago, I was disappointed I never got into the BA, now, I know, I dodged a bullet. How anyone still wants to study there is beyond me. There are better ways to learn Korean.
The fact that this specific Admin DMd a student a few days ago, to say they will try to persuade them to stay in the server and handcuff them to one of the Tournaments. YIKES. OP is a better human than I am, I would have posted w/o censoring the name of that Admin.
