  • This study examines how friendships are developed in a special kind of virtual  world: multi-user-dungeons (MUDs). According to the Social Information Processing  perspective (Walther, 1992) people learn to verbalize online that which is nonverbal  offline, with increasing time. The use of verbal paralanguage should be an  important factor in the development of impressions. Sociability, as a general trait, and  skepticism towards computer-mediated communication (CMC), as a situation-specific  attitude, could also influence this process.
