Master Silz??? >> That is I - I mean me - but, again, I cannot give you a simple answer. When I began taekwondo (24 years ago) SabomNim said that 4th Dan was master-level meaning that when I reached that grade I would no longer need to teach under his license. Of course that would have been in Korea, as here in the US, no license is needed at all. Later, I heard that according to the WTF, the criteria for the master's title was raised to 5th Dan. Personally, I think one is a master when his master calls him one.

You may practice the WTF style, but only a country's designated national governing (NGB) body can be a member of taekwondo's international federation (IF), the WTF.

I joined the school and switched schools because of my instructor. That's where my real loyalty and respect are. <<< Nicely said. I believe that goes to the heart of it. I like to have the naive notion that if there are scurrilous GM's about, they will wind up with fewer and fewer students/customers. I may have a few minor issues with some aspects of my (tai chi and TKD) instructors, but basically, I feel they're both honorable, capable, and sincere folks, so I stay with 'em.
