4 years as a brown? You still paying your monthly fee or just running your own business teaching grappling?
I'm super intrigued for the story?

Yeah, bjj politics vs belts really suck.
19 years of grappling here. 11 years of bjj. I have been a brown for four years.
Doesnt matter that much but could be ridiculous when you try to explain that to a new guy.
I would totally be for the original Gracie academy system :
White - light blue- dark blue
White belt could have the four stripes for student retention.
Light blue would be given around high blue or low purple of today
Dark blue would be equivalent of todays brown, and would be instructor level.
