A little pro-tip for talking in Japanese on 4chan:

People can be very shy.
Speaking Japanese and revealing that you know very little of it is a big point of embarrassment, since Japanese language learning has a very elitist mentality.

A good ice breaker is to talk to someone in n5 or make minor, but noticable mistakes to get someone else to talk back to you in Japanese.
When they reply, you can start ramping up your displayed Japanese skills.
