Choatle seems to believe that people/schools are guilty until proven innocent. Granted, there are a lot of dodgy characters in this EFL China business and a healthy dose of skepticism is warranted, but I'd rather see posters write about what they have had first hand experience with instead of condemnations, based on assumptions and no supportive evidence.

Yes, many of us, unfortunately, have experienced the seedy side of this business, and, yes, the hits just keep on comin', but I would suggest that our warnings and advice to newbies would be better accepted were they based on evidence versus accusations based solely on past experiences. Otherwise, are we not as guilty as those we condemn?
