EveGate: does anyone use it, or is it just me?

Topic says it all. If you use it, let me know so that I can add you to my contacts. That way, when I press refresh on my phone during the day, I might even see something new!

I'm embarrassed to say that I've never even visited it. Linkie?

Do you expect that the EveGate thing is IC or OOC?

I've used it for the EVE Mail function, but not for status updates or much else.

Me too. Mostly an out of game mail service. Be great if it had a skill queue.

OOC or IC? no one much uses is, so you can set the trend.

I'd pay $5/mo more per account for that function.

I use it fairly extensively for mail (ICly and OOCly).   Not so much for the status blurbs.

I also wish it had the ability to let you update your skill queue.

As others have said, mostly for the eve-mail functionality. It's kinda creepy sometimes when you send someone a mail message and they reply a few minutes later, and they aren't on.

I use it for mail as well. It's nice as work blocks the eveonline.com domain, but the gate.eveonline.com domain is allowed through.  :bear: Firewall 72, Usagi 1.
