What is Slack?

Slack is a platform for team communication: everything in one place, instantly searchable, available wherever you go. EVE University has been using Slack for a while within each of the campuses, communities and other teams.

The various E-Uni Campuses have channels set up in their respective slack applications for different purposes. One feature in slack is that it allows pings for various purposes, which will be received by all members of that team. Slack also has a mobile app which is quite versatile.

How to Join Slack

Each campus and community has a similar way of joining their Slack, you will need to visit their forum posts for details:

If you have any issues joining their slack, look on those posts for whom to contact.

Channel Chat and Ping Etiquette

  • #General: Use this channel for your general chat, banter, whatever, just keep it with in the Uni Chat rules
  • #PingPvP: Use this for when a fleet is forming, either a QRF or a preplanned fleet. (Forming as in, doing the x-up undocking soon, not forming in an hour)
  • #PingMisc: For announcments that everyone needs to see (kind of like a UniNSC mailing list, or a PvE fleet going out)
  • #talkaboutpings: As the channel says, use this channel for questions/discusions about a recent ping.
  • #Random: For whatever (mostly Carth's GIF's at the moment) Keep it within Chat rules.
  • #NSFW: a R-Rated Channel for whatever (keep it decent or I will delete the channel)
  • #campusbatphone: "OMG WE HAVE A TITAN TACKLED AND NEED EVERYTHING". Unless your ping is something along that line, don't use this channel.
  • #extracurricularactivities: Playing LoL/COD/WOW/*insert latest multiplayer game here* and want some friends, use this channel.

Please be respectful, decent and all the rest of those things in slack.. and NEVER reveal any personal info.
