We have various chat channels for members. If you want to help out keep the channel open and if you know the answer to something someone is asking then tell them. Provided you know what you are talking about (try to avoid spreading misinformation!) don't be shy. You don't have to be an expert in an area to answer a question on it. If they ask a follow up question and you don't know the answer that's fine, just tell them. Maybe someone else knows and can help you both out.

* ''' | * '''Questions (EVE Uni)''' - This channel is designed specifically for people to ask questions, so set it to blink and answer any questions you know the answer to. If a member is asking a question which requires a detailed answer, tell them in the channel that you will convo them and send them a convo request so as not to clog up the channel. | ||
* '''General (EVE Uni)''' - This is the general chat channel most of our members use, so a lot of people (particularly newer members) ask general questions in there. Keep an eye on it and see if you can help them out. This is also the channel where new members are welcomed by the Intake Officers, so be sure to make them feel welcome. | * '''General (EVE Uni)''' - This is the general chat channel most of our members use, so a lot of people (particularly newer members) ask general questions in there.

* '''EVE University''' - This is the channel used by Intake Officers to call applicants for their interview. If you're a member then you've already gone through the application process, so from an applicant's point of view you're an expert! Even just sharing your own experiences will help our nervous applicants out. E-UNI is also listed as a public help channel, so it's almost always busy with questions about the game from non-members who are often very new to the game. Even if you're new yourself, it's very likely you can help them out. | * '''EVE University''' - This is the channel used by Intake Officers to call applicants for their interview.
