That info from the petition saying awkwardtheturtle is another user is something that went around for a while, but it wasn't true (unless there's been a turn in that story).

awkwardtheturtle posted a selfie in the "centuryclub" subreddit (which only allowed people with over 100k link or comment karma in), and the person in the selfie definitely wasn't the person people suspected awkwardtheturtle was.

The "proof" so many pointed to (including the petition) was a Vox article which was just repeating stuff from a Daily Beast article. The Daily Beast article never said the two were the same person, but the Vox article assumed they were. Probably because the head mod on a lot of subreddits that other person mods is/was awkwardtheturtle.
