My point is that you'll get caught pretty quickly anyway if you do that in the threads. I myself would rarely overlook. However, when a weaboo comes in, claims to know Japanese and starts teaching it in PM's where no one can see it, it does nothing but harm. It wil hurt JF's reputation in the long run.

I know this for a fact because I get PM's from members asking me if someone is teaching them proper Japanese.
Funny enough, I was one of the people that got a PM teaching me Japanese after I posted a question a while back. While I only know bits and pieces (just enough to get around and keep me out of trouble), I still think I know more than this "teacher" who "taught" me over PM
