Mod Post: Moment of Truth

1:09 pm - 12/08/2012


Early Tuesday morning it was brought to our attention that koken23 was not who she was claiming to be, an accusation that was proven to be true within minutes.

She quickly released a statement:

"Jules is fictional. She's a character in a novel I've been writing - a younger version of the novel character - and I made this blog to flesh her out, to see if I could get into her head. Along the way, she became a sort of escape for me".

Thus, she was removed from her responsibilities as a moderator for not being real.

Apparently she's a girl in High School and she is (presumably) white and living in the US.

h.s.?! wow, I'm once again glad that I came of age before the internet

Apologies, disregard that bit of info! I took it from the ONTD comment thread, and apparently the user was talking about someone else. Oops. :P

I believe the real koken23 is a grown woman.

kk, thanks--being an adult is more sad but makes me feel better about not seeing through her (h.s. kids usually can't pass as adult IMO let alone one from another country and situation)

Unless they're a really smart and mature High Schooler, lol.

Yes, I am really 16. And I actually live in Australia. :P

Do you have a husband in the UK though?

It's not very long, but yeah. She was also a member of ONTD, IIRC.

Holy shit, fake pictures of her kids even.

hahahaha seriously. we had like, dial-up, pay by the hour AOL when I was finishing high school, but even if I'd made an embarrassing Geocities website, it would have been deleted now anyway. thank goodness for being an adult in the era of social networking.
