| - | As part of the fast moving nature in EVE, things can happen in minutes, Jabber allows us to do easy out-of-game fleet broadcasts and is key in informing our membership when something important is going down, even if they are out of game. In addition it is our primary out of game chat room and is one of the easiest ways to get a hold of people outside of EVE. Most significantly, when you send someone a personal message or type their name in a chat channel, it pings them with a sound. This is useful for getting the attention of older players who spend a lot of time at their computers not playing EVE. We also have the [[training:deedeereddit]] channel set up on jabber where newbies can go and have all of your amazing questions answered. | + | As part of the fast moving nature in EVE, things can happen in minutes, Jabber allows us to do easy out-of-game fleet broadcasts and is key in informing our membership when something important is going down, even if they are out of game.

| As stated above, Jabber allows for more interesting applications than IRC, add in the instant messaging and global announcements and we've got a tool that will really help us.
