A Letter To The Students

Hey everyone...

Okay, so you all know I stepped down as an admin. However, it has come to my attention that I can't step down because TWO TIMES I tried to, Syn's school name was tainted, people got pissy at him, and this school's reputation was at stake. So here are MY rules, whether you like it or not...

I have ZERO... and I mean, ZERO patience for drama on this school. That was the one reason I had to step down, and the moment I did, it didn't matter. Syn is my fucking man. He is my DEAREST friend, as he is to all of you. The moment I saw this shit get spread about him and this school across the internet, I couldn't stay down.

I refuse to let this school, my name, his name or any of you take heat for anything.

So new rule, (MY RULE) is in place. You start drama on this school, you get ONE warning. PERIOD. After that, you're canned. End of story. I don't have time to bat sessions back and forth and monitor students.

I have a meeting with the team this week that I wasn't suppose to do because I stepped down, but when I got the invitation after all this stupid shit, I said "Yes, I'm going. Because I want to be there to make it right if Syn and the students need me."

I worked really, REALLY damn hard to be in this place, and I have finally learned that i deserve to be where I am. Especially with the outpouring love I received from everyone the moment they heard of my withdrawal. I'm here....TO STAY. So that means, any disrespect towards me will land your ass in hot water. And yes, I've gotten it more than you know. THIS ALSO GOES FOR DISRESPECTING OTHER STUDENTS

Also, IF YOU HAVE AN ISSUE WITH THE SCHOOL TAKE IT UP WITH ME. If you have ANYTHING that is keeping you from having the best experience of your life here, please speak with me first. I am the ONLY one who can make things right here. Except for Ed. Fuck that guy. He makes everything right.

The Rockstar Student Will be announced August 1st! So yeah, that's it.
Love you guys!
Goodnight!

Jak

    Welcome back Mama Cat ! Although, I hate it’s under such awful circumstances. I 100% agree with your rule though and honeslty, 99% of the people here are chill and relaxed and here for the right reasons so hopefully, once the asshats get the memo or are kicked out your job will be a lot easier !

    Every forum or group has s certain set of rules. So this is nothing new. Why bitch unnecessarily.....This is free people....you get what you get (which is a fucking lot) for free. The least you can do is trear people with respect over here, and show at least some sort of gratitude. No need to be an entitled prick!

    Glad to see you come back Queen Cat. I can see the claws are sharpened!

    I don’t understand why people do that, I mean if you want attention just PAY for your own fucking teacher or hire a therapist!!!
    The contents offered in this site cost money in the real world, but you are having the PRIVILEGE to join for FREE.
    If you really wanna learn just grab your guitar, sit your ass on your fucking chair and don’t stop until your fingers bleed!! That’s how you learn to BE RESPECTFUL to other people’s work and start respecting yourself.

    Welcome back! Yeah, no need for drama at all on here, unless it's a dramatically good solo...In all seriousness though, this site is free of charge! Nobody's out of pocket if they don't get a question answered for whatever reason or if something goes wrong, big deal - especially navigating through a pandemic just now, people are only human. My experience on here has always been positive, I've never had anything but good interactions and advice - some people just have majorly high expectations!

    Thank you all so much.
    I understand if this new "Sharpened claws" attitude may be a little jolting.
    But you all know a lioness can't hunt or protect with retracted claws.
    I've dealt with a lot of abuse from students here and my foot is put down. That's all. I'm not going to start being a maniac or anything.
    Also, some of YOU (my kittens) have received the abuse as well.

    I'm sure you all heard on the chat yesterday how much my nerves have snapped being "patient" and "nice" to these people.
