Periodicity: a few months. This kind of thing happens fairly frequently, including at least one moderately-famous webcam girl who's pulled the "Bye y'all" stunt at least once. MUDs and other online games (read as: chat rooms for slow typists) know this phenomenon well.
They say that most suicide attempts are thinly-disguised cries for help. Well, where better to direct those cries than to a bunch of people who have nothing better to do than log on, chat and hang on your every word?

And you think it's about time that you died
And I agree
So you decide on suicide
You tried but you never quite carried it out
You only wanted to die in order to show off
And if you think you're gonna bleed all over me
You're even wronger than you'd normally be
