Yup, real

I have to admit, I was playing the devil's advocate a bit by my question. I agree that cyberspace relationships have a big impact on people. In my research on the Palace (a chat community), I am continually impressed by how deeply involved people get in the friendships, romances, politics, and conflicts. I'm wondering, though whether cyberspace CAUSES any disorders in people, or magnifies what is already there.
