How to confront someone lying about knowing martial arts?

[Monkey Turned Wolf]

I have asked no one for credentials.

Just to clarify, I did not think you asked anyone for credentials.

I know the two of us have had disagreements in the past, but I do not consider you to be someone who would risk someone's privacy by asking for credentials for them. We have different philosophys about MA (and Im still developing my own), but I view you as a woman of honor overall and I believe you would never do anything to put a martial artist at risk of ridicule, bullying, or anything else by asking for specific credentials to talk here.

Thank you, that is a very kind and honourable thing to say.
