What is Sisters in EVE?

Sisters in EVE was a community of women who play EVE Online. It was composed of a forum group in the EVE University Forum which was restricted to members of Sisters in EVE only. It was closed on 1st June 2011 due to inactivity. Its stated purpose was:


“

The purpose of Sisters in EVE is to provide a place where women, in this male dominated game, can connect and communicate with each other. The intent is not to segregate women, but to give them a place where they can get away from the sometimes overwhelming maleness of the rest of the channels and forums, should they feel the need to do so.

By creating a more female-friendly place in EVE we hope to make EVE a more pleasant experience for girls and encourage new female pilots to stay with the game. As such it is important that Sisters in EVE is also a newbie-friendly environment.

Please note, that while we will do our best to ensure that those who are admitted are truly female, we cannot guarantee 100% that no men will infiltrate the forum. Once identified as such, they will be removed. People should still use caution, and common sense in using this forum.

Forum policies

The forum policies were:

“
  1. This forum is intended for women only, and we ask that men kindly respect our privacy and stay away. Failure to respect this will have consequences.

  3. All participants in this forum are expected to treat each other with respect. While we may be treated with disrespect at times in the game, let’s not do it to each other here.
