abstract = {Problem statement: Internet Relay Chatting (IRC) is a multi-user, multi-channel chat
system that runs on a network. It gives people the ability to participate in a synchronous exchange of
thoughts with one or more people over a computer network. Approach: Currently, there is a lot of
cheating during the chatting since the chatters do not know each other. However, it is very hard to
determine how far is the cheating occurs during chatting. Results: We presented results of a case study
based on a survey that investigate the relation between chatting and cheating. Survey results show that
more than four in ten participant indicated that they give false information and act dishonestly while
chatting. Conclusion: Survey results showed that chatting has more negative effects than positive
effects. Other interesting results were included in the study.},
