Rock Raiders United is a community devoted to the computer game Rock Raiders and its sets. It was founded on 31st July, 2008, by Cyrem (formerly known as gmjab, cylojab, and Grapheme). On 7th September, 2009, the forum left Zetaboards and moved to its current location at rockraidersunited.org.

RRU is a dedicated Modding Community for the game. The original RRU Community Forum had 23,713 posts and 307 members. The new site has over 4,300 members and 96,000 posts (status as of 22nd August, 2014). Community Members can use the forum to chat about the game, or things in general, as well as submit their own contributions to the game or the community.

Rock Raiders United went down in May 2017, and returned in June with a message that the entire site was undergoing a software upgrade and heavy forum and member restructuring.

Projects

RRU has many on-going large-scale projects in the works. For a list of game modifications, see Overhaul Mods. For a list of modding tools, see Tools. There is also an avid Fan Fiction community that writes stories about the Rock Raiders universe.

Headers

The original Zetaboards forums used a large header spreading across the top of the page instead of a single small logo image. For the first anniversary, the header updated to have a gold logo.

January 2017 saw the return of forum header images instead of logos, with the intention of updating every month. This plan was eventually derailed by the 2017 site upgrade
