Jean-François Bourbeau monitored the discussions on the site when the words of a young drew his attention.

“At any given time, there is a young guy who writes like how the black is better than the light, stuff like that. It attracted my attention and I asked him : what is happening? He was repeating a kind of metaphors nebulae and, at a given time, in the chat window to the public, he said simply I am going to kill myself, is**. At this time, I took it privately to investigate what went wrong,” said Mr. Bourbeau, in an interview with the issuance of The 9 hours.

The man said that the young, who attends the college, was soon opened, giving details about the situation.

“When I saw that it was serious, I decided to call the police, but unfortunately they told me that they could do nothing as long as they did not have a phone number.”

The young in distress did first not want to give her phone number, saying that her parents were sleeping. The moderator has, however, managed to get her cell number, saying that he preferred to exchange by text message. After twenty minutes, the young man finally agreed, and Jean-François Bourbeau has new release with the police.

This is only a few days later that the moderator knew that the young man had been hospitalized and was able to get the appropriate support.
