Don't know if there is one, just so peeps can chat and stuff while they grind, meet up and mine together, make new friends etc. The game doesn't encourage interaction and I think it should. EVE oinline with all its downsides, did actually get the main basics right even 10 years ago. You can gang up and chat in local, in real time, and do stuff together.
Open local chat channel?

Well we do have one of sorts.. I made a steam group a while back, lots of active people in chat..

The only people I want to communicate with in this game are the friends I have on teamspeak and the target I threaten with death if he doesn't drop his cargo in exchange for his life.
Beyond that, any other chat or communication channels had better come with an off switch or a mute button.
