I think on forums there's a good debate to be had as to whether constructive suggestions should be given in public in the thread or privately by PM.

Correct. No-one is perfect. So why do grammar police have to pop up on here - this is not a written English exam. I disagree about not needing to be being flawless when correcting grammar though. Posters are simply waiting to be hoisted on their own petard if they wish to criticize others about grammar, and then make an extremely basic mistake.
