One claimed she would never reveal anything completely truthful about herself online, one claimed she had 20 different personalities and could shift in and out of them at will, one would almost never post anything serious on the forum (she writes 90% inane babble) while in private she wrote like a professional writer with a deep philosophical understanding of life, one claimed to be completely honest on the forum (despite the fact she joked around/lied frequently enough), and one claimed to be completely honest while lying a substantial amount of the time.
