Club Penguin Information:


Club Penguin is a multiplayer game. The game was introduced to the world in August 2005 by the gaming company Miniclip although it has its own website. It was created by New Horizon Interactive company on the 24th of October 2005 and is now owned by the company Disney.


Beginner’s Tutorial:

Let’s get to know the basics about Disney’s Club Penguin:

There is a lot of exciting things to do on Club Penguin. Use the map by clicking the map icon in the bottom left to go to different rooms in Club Penguin. You can also walk through pathways.



To view your player card, click on the yellow star to the right side of the toolbar. You can change your clothes, pin, background, and view your coins there.


There are tons of games in Club Penguin to play! Some are multiplayer and some are for just one person. To play a game walk up to the game booth and click yes when it asks you if you want to play. You can earn coins by playing games!

To chat with your friends, click on the blue bar in the center of the toolbar and type your message. Press enter or the quote button to send your message. You can also choose from a list of ultimate safe chat messages by clicking the icon in the bottom left of the toolbar.







History:
Before Club Penguin, there was a game created by Rocketsnail (Rnsail) called Penguin Chat. Penguin Chat was the game that Club Penguin was based off of.



In 2005 this game was closed and the players were told to move to a new game known as Club Penguin. I managed to dig up this screenshot of the message on the Penguin Chat website just before it closed.




Penguin Chat was very similar to Club Penguin, except there was only one room, the Town! There also was a coffe shop,night club and gift shop like on Club Penguin. Here’s a picture of the town:


You could go inside the night club on Penguin Chat, but there was no DJ3K or dance contest. Here’s a picture of the night club:


Like Club Penguin, there was also igloos on Penguin Chat 3. Here’s a picture of Me in my igloo:


Penguin Chat also had emotions similar to Club Penguin. There are still some of these emotion symbols on Club Penguin now which came from Penguin Chat 3, You could also type numbers!!



Penguin Chat also was the creator of the ninja penguin. Club Penguin was going to put ninja penguins when they first were created, but instead they chose secret agents. In November 2008, Club Penguin introduced the ninja. However, the ninja was created long before that on Penguin Chat 3.
When creating a penguin on Penguin Chat 3, if you clicked on the letter N for the “select your new penguin” screen you would be able to choose the ninja penguin.








Here is a picture of a ninja penguin from Penguin Chat 3. Notice how similar the ninja penguin from Penguin Chat 3 is to the ninjas on Club Penguin now.







Also like in Club Penguin, you could mine the ground if you wore a yellow hard hat.
Then, suddenly Penguin Chat 3 closed down and Club Penguin was created in August 2005. Rocketsnail announced a better version of Penguin Chat 3 known as Club Penguin. At this time, the Club Penguin website only had a logo and said it was under construction. Miniclip sponsored Club Penguin and many new members joined the game.
After 2 months of testing, Club Penguin officially opened in October 2005. The beta testing party lasted for a few parties, and penguins who helped test received a free beta party hat.

Penguins could pick up the beta party hat at the town. Here is what it looked like when you picked up the beta party hat!



Beta testers also got a free month of Club Penguin m
embership and 2000 coins added to their accounts. Ever since beta testing, Club Penguin has grown to one of the most popular online games and has over 35 million users worldwide.

Club Penguin Characters:

Aunt Artic is a very well known penguin. She has her own column in the Penguin Times that you can check out by clicking the newspaper symbol at the top left hand corner of your Club Penguin screen. You can ask her questions and maybe even get published in the Penguin Times.

She only has had one background which you can get by meeting her. She loves heading over to the coffee shop to grab a quick cup of coffee and she also loves heading to the stage when the Penguin Play Awards are on to check out the buzz.

Rockhopper is a famous penguin pirate. He sails the seven sea’s on his trusty vessel, The migrator. He has a trusty ship mate called Yarr, a red puffle. He comes about 4 or 5 times a year (Every 3 months or so) and brings lots of goodies from Rockhopper Island which you can purchase while you aboard the migrator when he is on the island.

He has had three backgrounds . His normal one, the overgrown ship one and an exclusive one that you could get if you where at disney land when Rockhopper stopped off there. He loves stopping off at the pizza parlour to grab a quick snack and loves to just relax on his ship. There are many stories of Rockhopper. One of the most famous ones is possibly the story about the stowaway. The story is about a penguin who decides to hitch a ride on The Migrator to Rockhopper Island.

Sensei is the master of card jitsu. He built his own dojo and trains all the penguins in the art today. He comes out very rarely but when he does the island goes into craze mode. He is fun and also kinda crazy, don’t tell him I said that. But he is also loved by all his students.

He has two outfits and maybe soon three or four but for now two. He has only had 1 background . He loves just relaxing and sipping tea at the dojo and he also likes to help the ninja’s train in the ninja hideout and fire dojo. Sensei is loved and is fun and he is definetly my favourite character. THANK YOU SENSEI FOR CARD JITSU!

About Moderators:

How to tell if a penguin is a moderator:

If you think a certain penguin on Club Penguin is a moderator, open up their player card. If they are a moderator, they will have the moderator symbol in the top right side of their player card. Here’s a picture of four Club Penguin moderators and a moderator symbol on Gizmo’s player card:

What Moderators can do that others can’t:

Moderators have many special features that other penguins can’t do. First off, moderators have the power to ban, mute, or kick other penguins from a server.

However, not all bans are from moderators. Whenever you curse on Club Penguin, it is most likely the server that detects it automatically and not the moderators. Some cheats are detectable by servers and Club Penguin automatically bans you. Most bans are automatically made by Club Penguin’s server. If a moderator on Club Penguin catches you doing something against the terms of service, they will ban you.

Moderators have many more features. They can log in to special servers where only moderators have access to. Other penguins cannot go on these servers. On these servers, moderators can perm items such as the beta hat, moderator symbol, and all other items. This is why all Club Penguin moderators have all the clothing items. If you had access to these servers, you would be able to get all the items on Club Penguin.

Moderators also have access to a special Club Penguin forum for moderators only. At this forum, the events which will happen months from now are posted and revealed. I’m not sure if this forum is still in use but it was at one point. There are currently no pictures of the forum on the internet.

How do you find Moderators on Club Penguin?

Finding a moderator on Club Penguin is one of the hardest things to do! I’ve been playing Club Penguin for almost 4 years and I’ve seen all the moderators only once or twice each. Moderators are most seen on the English servers since Club Penguin is hosted in English speaking countries. Moderators visit random servers most of the time, but I have seen moderators on Frozen and Mammoth. I have seen Billybob twice on Frozen, once at the Cove and once at the Dock. They don’t stay long and it is very very difficult to catch them on. However, it is possible but I do not suggest trying to look for them. Just play Club Penguin and hopefully you will meet them.

Can I become a Moderator on Club Penguin?

Yes, but you must be at least 18 years or older and live in or near Kelowna, British Columbia or Canada. As a safety precaution, each moderator has to be at least 18 because they are dealing directly with children and have to pass a criminal record check. Moderators work together as a team in the Club Penguin office. This is a part of safety measures – they need to know who is moderating to keep Club Penguin safe.
