The Rolling Lounge Network Opening was a server update that happened on November 21st of 2021, where Rolling Lounge was turned into a network instead of just a server and spread to a total of four topic-specific servers.

The Rolling Lounge Network Opening was a server update that happened on November 21st of 2021, where Rolling Lounge was turned into a network instead of just a server and spread to a total of four topic-specific servers, the so called '''Districts'''. The servers were made accessible through a portal channel inside of all Rolling Lounge Network servers.

==History==

After the [[Rolling Lounge (Era~~)|Rolling Lounge~~]] ~~era~~ had started in early 2020, the community's activity started to decrease. While it was possible for the chats to get more active than they ever were, the general consistency of a base community was low. For this reason, people had searched for potential causes and solutions for this happening. One cause was identified to be because of Rolling Sky's decline and eventual death which the community generally consisted of. However it was still questioned why people hadn't stayed in the base community due to its relatively long time of lasting.

* '''Rolling Lounge''' acted as a center for the entire network, remaining a community based server.

* The topics Rolling Sky, Rolling Fanmade and Rhythm Join were moved to the '''RL | RS Fanmade Hub''' server.

Line 19:

* The '''RL | Appeal''' server was added to give people the possibility to question sentences made to punish them.

===District Principles===

The districts were built similar to the Network Center Rolling Lounge with a similar channel and permission system. The servers follow the Network Rules (rules which apply to every server in the Rolling Lounge Network) and also add their district-specific rules depending on the environment of the server.

==Extended Network==

3 days after the initial network release, the network was expanded with the use of another portal made available in Rolling Lounge, the Extended Portal. This portal included the servers '''RL | SMP''' and '''RL | Wiki''' and were only made available for people above Level 10. Those servers have the characteristics of not being targeted for a greater audience but rather smaller communities from the Main Server. Their channel structure don't try to resemble Rolling Lounge's and the Network Rules don't apply there, they rather have their own rules. One detail of the Extended Network servers is also that every member has the right to claim a personal role as the servers are seen as rather laid back.

==Themes==

The addition of the Rolling Lounge Network added district-specific themes. Each district has their own theme colors which are used mainly throughout the server.

* '''Rolling Lounge''': Blue

* '''RL | Appeal''': Red

* '''RL | RS Fanmade Hub''': Green

* '''RL | Rolling Sky Remake''': Orange

* '''RL | SMP''': Light Blue

* '''RL | Wiki''': Black

The '''RL | Rolling Sky Remake''' theme was later changed to Black because of the release of 0.1b. From then on the '''RL | Wiki''' district was colored white.
