I think that communication online is a lot more limited than face-to-face. It's harder to inject nuances to what you say, and people often might just add their own nuances.

For example, I have a very sarcastic sense of humour, and I never use smilies. So when I make a joke online a lot of people think I'm just being outright nasty.

So yes, I think online communication does cheapen in comparison to face-to-face communication, as it's so direct and inflexible.
