I want to do research on the patterns of the community's success and failures through text conversations, or chat logs if it's online. If you want to participate, I use an app on Android called Txtract which copies all the chats into html. You can take this into MS Word to cut down and use the "find and replace" function to change all names to "Me" and "him/her".

I don't think this belongs in AskSeddit since I'm not asking for basics, I'm looking for experience for research.
