A verdict of suicide was returned on Kevin Whitrick, 42, of Wellington, Telford, Shropshire, who died in March. Mr Whitrick was using Paltalk, which encouraged users to insult each other, when he announced he wanted to kill himself, coroner Michael Gwynne heard. He hanged himself while other internet users egged him on.
