EVE General Discussion

Every hour, over 300 posts are being created on the EVE Online forums. Every month, our players post over 9 million words, expressing their concerns, hopes, ideas and suggestions. This feedback is essential for the future of EVE Online, but it takes the right people to help communicate it to the developers — you.

The process of daily communication with our players is best entrusted to those who are far better versed in the intricacies of New Eden — the players themselves.

Who we are

Community Communications Liaisons (or CCL for short) are a group of ISD volunteers who are responsible for the official EVE Online forums along with the Community Team. The main goal of CCL is to support our community by keeping order on the forums and enhancing communication between CCP and the players. The CCL just recently expanded onto the official DUST 514 forums to collect feedback from the community for CCP but do not provide moderation there.

What we do

First of all, CCL are volunteer moderators who help to maintain the EVE Online forums as a healthy venue for discussion. Additional information about this aspect of the program can be found in CCP Navigator's dev blog.

Second, the CCL team acts as a conduit between the EVE Online and DUST 514 developers and the players. Our volunteers point out threads of interest to the Community team and, by extension, to the relevant developers. Our forums are an awfully big place, and it is very easy for important feedback to get lost. CCL strives to ensure this does not happen.

Last but not the least, CCL help their colleagues in the ISD STAR department to answer any questions that new players might have, and to run interesting projects for the community at large.

Why join CCL?

Simply put, the main reason to join ISD is the desire to make EVE a better place for everyone. All ISD volunteers graciously share their free time in order to assist in a variety of tasks that all go towards supporting and enriching the players experiences in the world of EVE. At the same time, there are certain benefits in place for volunteers to reward effort and dedication.

It is important to note that volunteers have little or no in-game abilities. They do not have access to the account information of players nor do they have the ability to create items in the game. They do not receive special items or equipment for their player characters. Their actions are closely monitored and they are not privy to information that is highly confidential.

How to apply

To apply for a position within ISD (EVE and DUST 514) you need to be 18 or over and hold an active subscribed account in EVE Online for over 6 months. The CCL team members must be patient, diligent and be able to conduct their duties objectively and without bias. While all volunteers should be sufficiently fluent in English, we welcome German, Russian and Japanese speakers as CCL has individual sub-teams dedicated to working on our localized forums.

If you achieve these requirements then please fill out the online application.

This thread will remain open to answer your questions. Please note that this thread is not the place to discuss moderation or bans and that posts of this nature will be subject to deletion.

Please do not ask about your application status on the forums, mail leads@eve-ccl.net with your questions instead.

ISD Suvetar, ISD Dorrim Barstorlode, myself and the rest of the CCL team are looking forward to your applications and wish you the best of luck!

You just made me double check

<3 the ISDs.

We have the Community Team watching over us, the GM team and there is Internal Affairs aswell.

Yes, Caldari Citizen 1897289768188, thats why we are recruiting. We dont want to lock threads either. But the EVE forums are huge! :-)

Only 300+ per hour .. had no idea we were that lazy.

You sure that number is accurate because it seems to me that it fits better with started threads and not posts which includes responses as well as thread generation.
Hell, the weekend last the F&I Dev spam thread moved 30-50 pages each in 2-3 days and they are probably nowhere near the action in General Disc. subsection

As little as 6 hours a week.

I`ll do it......if I can have TomB`s old ban stick !

You guys need more people because of the new controversial addition to the CCP team?

That threadnaught grew to unscalable proportions.

Much to my amusement too.

Having only recently come back to EvE Online after a break, I do not pass the 6 month continuous subscription clause.

However, I will help the ISD by patrolling the Forums for Spelling, Grammar and various other crimes against the English language.
