Visualizing Conversation

چکیده
From the start, I was never entirely sold on the idea of Chat Circles. I very much liked how the user's avatar was a circle on the visualization plane, and how it changed to match the users activity. However, immediately my concern turned to people abusing this fact. From the looks of the prototype pictures, players chat will be displayed inside their circle. What is to stop a user from spamming text to make their circle enormous? This visualization gives the user power over their appearance through text. Unfortunately, I think the visualization would end up distracting from conversations and end up making them about one appearance and less about the interaction.
