I think that what FlyingLlama said is the base: Humans are social beings. But I think that there is more to it.Don't you feel that on the net you're more protected. I think that peer pressure on real life is a lot harder than on the net. So if you need to fill those psychological needs you'll find that it's a lot easier to do on the net than on real life.
