The intent of SI is not to kill ones self. So far, people who SI and post about it are actually
doing SI it would seem. The SI people want help, based on thier posts. The people who post about suicide seem not to want help or are faking. At least based on the history of this board and others, if one calls the police or takes other actions the person considering suicide gets mad and often stops posting. Or they were faking to "stur things up" or as of late were just drunk.
