EVE Gate will let players send each other mail and schedule events, typical social network features, but will also have game-specific features. Users will be able to keep track of other members of the game's player-run corporations and even manage contacts with members of allied corporations. EVE Online developers CCP hope players will use EVE Gate to organize in-game activities and conduct in-game politics without having to resort to forums or social networks that aren't affiliated with the game.
