Abstract
In the last years, virtual community systems (VCS) (Bublitz, Barbosa, & Costa, 2004) have been used as one of the main mechanisms for communication and collaboration among people throughout the world--the people whom use this kind of system compose the socalled virtual community. Several systems providing different features and tools such as forums, e-mails, and videoconference, among others, represent a revolution in the way that people interact with others.
