Someone faked their suicide on a forum I used to admin. I can understand the need for confirmation. I was losing my mind when that happened and even though I was glad it wasn't true, the girl still put me through hell with her prank.
Something like that recently happened to a friend of mine too. One of her online friends went missing and someone claiming to be his mother said he had died. They gave her a date and time for the funeral and everything. She found out it was a hoax hours later after she practically went through an emotional breakdown.
I think a big reason the thread was closed was to make sure people weren't spilling their hearts out and getting depressed before we get proof. I can't blame him for that. It can always be re-opened.
