Rift: PvP and Role Play Sites

This website is devoted to PvP and Realm Versus Realm (RvR) play.
http://www.riftrvr.com/

There are warfront strategy guides, an article about UI and interface settings for PvP, etc.  If you are interested in versus play, you'll want to explore this site.

Thanks to IGN's Rift Kingdom, I found this site with PvP-specific settings.

If role playing is your thing, you'll want to explore this website which has a database of players, a forum, and online role play (public and private).
http://rift-legends.com/

Here's an article to spark debate on how to structure role play in Rift.

Rift: Customizing Your UI and Controls UPDATED

The online Rift manual has a section about the UI (pp. 12-24) that explains your action bars, the various panels (character, guild, raid panels, etc.) and more.

However, the best overall UI explanation I've found is on This Is Not A Rift's website as it covers clearly how to customize your UI.

This article covers camera controls, movement, interacting with objects, describes the maps, and goes into great detail about various  combat actions that are exclusive to various classes.

RiftLift.com is a site dedicated to customized UIs in the game.
http://riftlift.com/

They will allow folks registered on their site to submit their UIs to the site so others (you may have to register to download but this is not clear) can download it to a character. I believe Rift makes it easy to copy the UI you have set up for one character to your other characters.

UPDATE:  Rift Junkies has posted a critique of the game interface.
