Under the current context of globalization, network Communication is the most fashionable characteristics of human social behavior. By the use of computer technology, the human create a new home——virtual community. Research in the field of media networks, virtual communities'research has been focused.Virtual communities in the study include the existing transmission network throughout the study, from the content and themes, some philosophical, Sociological analysis of the unique attributes of virtual community, the whole of the network, virtual, is to explore such issues;Second, the theory of the spread is already studying the new phenomenon of virtual communities. These studies verify the traditional theory in this new context of the adaptive process from research to explore this new old theory possible; Linguistics a small number of works from the point of view of the mode of transmission of virtual communities. The author inspired by the popularity of these research results, Virtual community itself seems aware of the lack of development of the detailed analysis, this has made it the subject of a wider space, and it is also the first of this line of thought.The thesis consists of four parts:Part one: defining the concept of virtual communities and analysis features. In this thesis, as described in the"virtual communities"closer Howard Rheingold's explanation that modern network technology as the foundation, People with common interests and needs of the composition line polymerization. We consider the"virtual communities"mainly refers to the BBS, Usenet, some relatively fixed Internet Relay Chat,SNS. Virtual community as represented in the network to provide users with information and emotion, the non-interactive network of contacts and exchange platform. Virtual community network as a brand-new space for humans and the environment exchanges has its own characteristics: transportation, the unique nature of the community structure and function, mobility, autonomy.Part two: outlined the environment of virtual communities, the trend of the"real"communication in Virtual communities for a definition. The author believes the virtual community of virtual, transportation, mobility, autonomy, interactive features and so on, for Habermas's"ideal speech environment"with a powerful conditions. Habermas's"undistorted communication"isn't a abstract idea and inspires us to seek for the communication. Such as, the"real"exchange state in virtual communities, and the need to achieve network true. As the human spirit to open up new homes, a virtual community should build a good environment for the discourse. Standardized expression, the spirit of active participation, and an open, inclusive of mind Virtual communities that are the three indispensable elements in the trend of the"real"communication. The ability to standardize expression is the basis of the"real"communication in Virtual communities, the spirit of active participation is the core of it, open-minded and tolerant attitude is the guarantee of it. It is undoubtedly essential to grasp the"real"communication in the development of virtual communities. So, Virtual community is to supplement and extend the real world .To the example of Tianya community, which is the most influential community in China. Tianya community is known as concise form, a deep and heavy content, focusing on the exchanges and interaction, as well as prominent human emotion. These also reflect three aspects of the"real"communication in Virtual communities.Part three: discussion on the formation and development of virtual communities, it is a pursuit of"real"communication in the process. First, social interaction is in the center of community theme and corresponding interest. BBS is a virtual community prototype. From the point of view of Communication, contacts feature in BBS: users set up by the topic of great interest to maintain rich and extensive; Internet ID equal and free exchange network, to achieve self-expression and to rebuild the main line; Language exchanges at the core, language ability become the primary network performance and capacity for survival. Second, for the users to exchange real-time online chat room, compared with BBS, the synchronization more prominent online chat room. Online chat room simultaneously transmitted to the full flow of information, more extensive and in-depth exchanges,through social interaction various self-building. Third,the main network for the initiative of the community changes. SNS is a new representative of virtual communities, which based on the reality of interpersonal lane. According to the trust based on the concept of sharing of information, SNS provides abundant and healthy exchange services in community. I took the cyworld as an example to analyse characteristics of SNS: advocacy network name system; emphasis interpersonal communication. Network will be extended to the real world of interpersonal space. The figures show props simulate real yourself. I believe SNS is the continuation of the virtual community, but also to surpass the virtual community. SNS has become increasingly"real"communication of the important performance in virtual communities SNS has become the important performance of the"real"communication in virtual communities. But this does not mean that the negative and eliminate other forms of virtual community. On the contrary, with the continuous development of virtual communities, various forms of benefit to people with more user-friendly options to express feelings.Part four: discussion about conducting the"real"communication with the development of virtual communities. The"real"communication should be better suited to share and exchange feeling or opinion, which not only enriches the human personality, but also doesn't lose ethical value. Virtual is also real is the essence of virtual community. Firstly, the appropriate tension between Virtual and real communication maintaining strength. Correctly understand and handle the relationship between real life and virtual life; the establishment of the appropriate link between real life and virtual life, which is a major breakthrough in future network cultural development; Secondly, strengthening internet morals and ethics. In virtual communities, from one aspect, common ethical network will provide community members gathered together the inner motivation. Virtual Communities as the second modern living room should have its own set of moral and ethical systems. Virtual community advocates equal, contempt hegemony and require cooperation. Open and fair, as well as the pursuit of virtual community. These laid a good foundation for the formation of moral and ethical network systems. Finally, building critical and reflective culture in virtual community people's similar values, taste and life guarantee the nature and style of groups in the virtual community. Personality differences between the groups will ensure that enlivened and enriched. Construction of cultural criticism and introspection is crucial to have a critical and reflective attitude."How to choose a better virtual life,"has become the subject of discussion and attention.Conclusion: summary involved with the development of virtual communities, there is growing enthusiasm for virtual communities. However, from reality to virtual, the loss of a people's behavior had emerged in the process of change, which has brought about new many problems and negative effect. Given the flourishing network building of the legal system, strengthen the network to be the main reason, we need to continue to study and research how to build reasonable order and new culture in virtual community. Our aim is to make the virtual community to truly become a new means of human interaction and platforms.
