Chatiquette

The phrase chatiquette (chat etiquette) is a variation of netiquette (Internet etiquette) and describes basic rules of online communication. [4][5][6] These conventions or guidelines have been created to avoid misunderstandings and to simplify the communication between users. Chatiquette varies from community to community and generally describes basic courtesy. As an example, it is considered rude to write only in upper case, because it appears as if the user is shouting. The word "chatiquette" has been used in connection with various chat systems (e. g. Internet Relay Chat) since 1995. [7][8]

Chatrooms can produce a strong sense of online identity leading to feeling of subculture. [9]

Chats are valuable sources of various types of information, the automatic processing of which is the object of chat/text mining technologies. [10.
