The Rebel Federation is a free, volunteer-run online community centered around cultivating interests and skills in a supportive environment. Our mission is to make the games and other online spaces we have a presence in safer for everyone.
Organized as a “Federation” of Divisions (larger groups of Members who share a common interest) and Teams (smaller groups of Members with similar skills), RF brings Members together to make new friends, work on projects together, and build communities around the things they love. Members rank up and grow individually by participating in these activities, while also contributing to the collective growth of the Federation as a force for good.
Our Story
Originally founded in May 2007 by a group of kids, the RF (then known as the “Rebel Penguin Federation”) was created in the name of beating a rival team who abused the online game we were playing, Club Penguin. We took a stand against these bad actors, and as just kids banding together, garnered thousands of members to our cause in a matter of months. The RPF became an online phenomenon that flooded Club Penguin with our rebel cause, and the community kept recruiting new members to the cause and developing for years after the fact.
In 2017, we made the decision to move to Discord, where customizable channels and roles allowed us to improve and expand our structure. Today, we have developed into an all-purpose community with the same core values and ideas. Seventeen years later, the rebellion continues!
Join a massive and growing community of over 14,000 members across multiple Discord servers. Become part of our journey to fight the good fight to make the Internet a better place for all.

What Makes Us Different?
We are a community built by our Members. Our structure empowers the most dedicated, passionate Members to grow into leadership roles. The result of this is a skilled Administration team with veteran experience, supported by a well-trained, friendly, professional, and cooperative staff. This ensures that RF remains organized and vibrant, maintained by those who value it most.
It’s not just our staff that sets us apart: in the Rebel Federation, each Member plays an important role in shaping our community. Every action you take in RF—big or small—helps steer our community forward. Whether you’re recommending an event idea, commanding or staffing a Division, collaborating on a Team project, or simply lending a hand to a fellow Member, your contributions directly impact our growth and direction.
When you join RF, not only do you become part of our community—you help shape it. By engaging with fellow Members, participating in events, and sharing your ideas, you help craft the experiences and opportunities that define who we are. Every conversation, event, and suggestion creates connections that strengthen our community and inspire new ways to learn, grow, and collaborate. These moments, crafted by our Members, become the foundation of who we are and what makes RF a community worth being part of.
Community Events
In the Rebel Federation, we believe that community engagement is key to fostering connections and enhancing each Member’s experience. That’s why we host a variety of Community Events designed for everyone, regardless of skill level.
Our events take place in the Community Hub Discord server and cover a wide range of activities. From casual gaming sessions that require no professional skills to creative contests, trivia nights, and social hangouts, we host an environment where every Member can participate and be included.
Join us for our weekly events where you can meet new friends and enjoy some light-hearted competition! Each event is an opportunity to connect, share ideas, and celebrate our diverse interests together.

RF’s Continuing Mission: Fight the Good Fight
The Rebel Federation’s goal is to bring people together and facilitate a supportive community for all. When we started in 2007, it was in the name of standing up to online bullies and bad actors who abused the game we were on. In doing so, our Members at the time developed a motto for themselves: “Fight the good fight”. This slogan represents the desire to do what is right—even if you have to fight for it—in every given opportunity.
Today, we continue that mission to “fight the good fight” by making the communities we belong to better, safer places for everyone. As Members of RF, we all set out with these shared values. It’s important that in joining us, you represent these values and work to make the Rebel Federation a force for good, and a home to all of its Members.
By coming together, we’ll be able to conquer any task, rival any competition, face any threat to our membership, and make our community as much of a welcoming environment as possible, as we have done now together for almost two decades. Our Members carry this legacy forward.
