@@LavaCreeperPeople yes, that is indeed the title of the video. good job.
Riley really put the CP in Club Penguin
@@ThatOneDogeYTchild p-
The night CP shut down, my college gameroom was full of grown-ass adults playing one last time. It was glorious.
CP SHUT DOWN?!?! IT CANT BE! I HAVE A WHOLE DRIVE FILLED WITH IT! NO NO NO NO NO
I didn't know drivers could be filled with cheese pizza

You know what really sucks? Disney was completely fine with CPPSes until those guys ruined it for everyone..
What’s cpps
@@pixilmon Basically they're unofficial Club Penguin servers hosted by fans. Or rather they were..
Around the official game’s shutdown Disney was making attempts to completely take CPPS offline
Disney still is. From what I heard, Disney only went after CPO. It was rumored that Disney was also going to target CPR but the CPR team said that hadn’t happened yet at the time and if it were to happen that they would comply. CPR came out the other side untouched.
@@CrimzonRozez Yeah CPO was called out explicitly for being a defamatory use of the brand. If Disney was really that stringent every CPPS would have gone under in 2017 and subsequent incarnations gone in hours
Riley legit sounds like he’s going through his villain arc
His villain arc already ended.
“today we ELIMINATE SuperCPPS”
what a loser lol
“we must ERADICATE SuperCPPS”
Money can corrupt people
Who would've guessed that CP ruined CP
@j.c.5895hahahahahahaha, its a bad fumble alright but i don't think they meant it the way they wrote it.
Of course they meant it like that. That’s the joke and it’s literal
he thought that the CP in club penguin meant something else

Was gonna make that same joke lol
There was a private server called Club Penguin Island Forever which recreated the original game. However it was sadly shut down due to not getting many players probably because of the original CPI’s bad reputation during its run.
But you have Waddle Penguin Island! 🎉
Leave it to one guy to ruin a perfectly good website for everyone.
I didn't know all of what was going on, but as soon as they added a "mature server" where people were allowed to swear, use derogatory and sexual language, etc., I knew it wouldn't be long before it came crashing down. Disney is very protective of their property, even stuff they're not currently using, and there was no chance that they would be allowed to continue with that even if Riley hadn't been a predator
Swearing services were going since about 2010
If anyone still wants to play Club Penguin, there’s Club Penguin Legacy, Club Penguin Journey, and New Club Penguin.
CPPS creator too
What about Club Penguin Atake?
Club Penguin Journey love!
God, you're gonna have a field day if you find out about Toontown Online and it's history with fan servers. More peaceful nowadays, it once turned into harassment, doxing, hacking and bomb threats.
Really? Need to check it out. Any specific people or names I should look up?
@@PixelsAfterDarkHere's everything I can remember currently:
- One private server called Toontown Infinite was responsible for hacking two other private servers, Rewritten and House. There were also rumors that Infinite installed malware on people's computers, but that may or may not have been false.
- Toontown House, one of the previously mentioned servers, actually DID install malware, specifically a keylogger
- There was some drama a few years ago about the Toontown Rewritten dev team hoarding never before seen content from Toontown Online's development, such as unused design concepts and footage of early gameplay.
- There was a spat between the head moderator of the Toontown subreddit, OtakuSRL, and I think one or two other people, which resulted in him doxing one of them and getting them fired from their job, then going on a power trip in the subreddit by deleting everything and preventing people from posting, which got so out of control that the admins had to get involved.
I hope the Club Penguin fan server community is leveling out after these rough years
I remember toon town
It is sickening that people like Riley exist in our world
There are sadly way worse people than him :/
Why? Riley did nothing wrong😢
What did I do wrong ?
@@fs0cieetyStop trying to troll you beyond saddo.
@@morelorel what is wrong with his actions then? Explain instead of being unplesant to me
I will never forget Lily0926…37. We met in the late 2000’s. On Club Penguin.
Everything was going well. We’d go around everywhere. The pizza place, dojo, disco club, the plaza, and the iceberg… But then one day she did the sad/hurt emoji and I asked, “What’s wrong?” And she repeated it. She kept only responding with the hurt emoji and waddling away from me.
Then I started waddling after her spamming the hurt emoji. It was at the iceberg when I last saw her. She did the hurt emoji once more and logged off.
She didn’t log back on for what felt like weeks… And I waited until eventually I saw her online. Sadly the penguin population was full for the one she was on and I couldn’t meet her… That was the last time I ever saw her log on.
And that was the first time my heart was broken. I remember being upstairs in my room and wanting to cry. lol. I was like 9 or 10 years old.
My username was Fox9tails. LILY IF YOU’RE OUT THERE. I NEVER FORGOT ABOUT YOU
that sucks man... oof
I miss my old friend Blueablue23. I never forgot about them and I wonder if they remember me. My username was Heather64
@@mintspice_holy crap dude, long time no see
@@Kudizo Bro I didn’t think I’d actually find you, that’s crazy I actually did lol
I had a friend named IceyAlly an CCReider(57?) I forget the number after his name.. We would always hang out. I actually played with CCReider on xbox live a few times, but never got to say goodbye to Ally.. My penguin was StormyNormy, but now I have a penguin named Penguinboli on CP Legacy cause I guess StormyNormy didn't pass their filter standards.
The whole story sounds like an actual plot for a movie
Waddlin': The Untold Story of Club Penguin's Resurrection
I love how this went from club penguin game unfortunately shut down to a money hungry team that rose up against the biggest club penguin private server by slowly killing the smaller competition
Riley out here putting the CP in CPO
I will forever regret not realizing this perfect joke and not including it in the video
@@PixelsAfterDarkno way 😭
@@PixelsAfterDark Yeah٫ that joke is the PERFECT balance between cursed and hilarious.
@PixelsAfterDark What is a joke is the line "If you had an iPhone, why would I give you an android?" Because android has better features, and the ones it shares with Apple, android usually had it first.
Why does everyone that gets a little clout is always like: "hmmm i suddenly like minors now"
Its because once you gain power you start to desire more and more and well you know how that ends up
And those who desire power want to obtain it in the easiest ways possible, which includes going after easy targets, and you know what kind of people tend to be seen as easy targets…
@@tsaralexis9459 more, as on literal children? wtf is that logic
I genuinely forgot club penguin island existed lmao, I loved watching raids.
What rise? He was at his lowest his entire life.
Hell nah not the cupcake, if you know you know.. 💀💀💀
I don’t get it. Can you explain?
@@quinnhouk5369EDP445
@@quinnhouk5369EDP
@@quinnhouk5369 there's this guy called EDP445 and he got caught trying to meet an under aged girl in a set up his alibi was that he was only meeting her to collect cupcakes
I think this was before edps downfall but I could be wrong
Did the Club Penguin Online allegations also bring Rewritten to Disney's attention?
Is there a single CPPS left at all, let alone one that's worth making an account for?
Everyone ran away from cppsed because of online and rewritten. So far the most trustworthy is new club penguin and imagined while legacy is a grey area
Imagined is as3 with a lout of new additions to make it their own.
Legacy, while sorta sketchy is the only one based on as2
New club penguin is repeating the original club penguin as3 era's timeline to the T. I dont use it but im sure thats about it. Just a copy
There’s Club Penguin Legacy, New Club Penguin, and Club Penguin Journey.
Also Club Penguin Rewritten was shut down due the mods illegally monetizing the game with ads. But no one really knows that so that’s why you see many former players defending and romanticizing it without really knowing what happened behind the scenes.
@@eko9554 I don't think I ever saw such ads when I played it (or I only saw a few and didn't pay them any heed). Maybe it was because I used an adblocker the entire time.
the discord server for cpo still exists and has 24773 bans to this day
A guy that had a popular club penguin discord server ends up being a PDF File?! Color me surprised, this is the first time that this has happened! /s
I was also there to see the sh!t unravel and was so glad he got arrested. I mean What kind of brainlet thinks being a disgusting PDF File on the clear web and not even being discreet about it is a good idea?
Rip club penguin 2005-2017
Learning all this, it makes me sick that i used to play and support Club Penguin Online. I learned about what happened in news articles after the shut down, but i didn't know it was this bad.
Club Penguin Island was like offering me an iPhone for my Android. Not the other way around
I have seen this before from a Brazilian youtuber(Goularte) and honestly you both made a great job explaining every little detail.
God, how hard is it to not talk to kids....
the quote “ he was looking for another kind of cp “ was literal
they literally state their age! even one of the moderations themselves tells them their age! and he's literally like "So?"
The man’s scum
@@PixelsAfterDarkI think he spent a little bit to much time on 4chan
Can you make a video on Club Penguin Rewritten? It was shut down due the moderators illegally profiting off the game with ads. There was also other sketchy behind the scenes.
Vaguely heard about the sketchy stuff and originally was gonna mention it at the end of the video. Couldn’t find as much definitive stuff as Riley had out there so I decided to cut it
What else sketchy? There was that one rogue admin whose threats caused the 2018 shutdown, but the staff united against him and since then he’s been out of the picture
At first I was hella confused with the existence of Virtual Penguin, I had never heard of it before nor seen it posted anywhere online (I played CPR mainly).
Then you mentioned that they rebranded as CPO, and it all made so much sense oh boy… I remember the day it all went to shit while I was chilling on CPR lmao
This was sitting in my YT recommendations for several days and I finally clicked on it today, I’m glad I did, very interesting and entertaining video
Society if Club Penguin wasn't shut down: *Utopia*
i really want to say you knocked it out of the park with this thumbnail, because it’s basically just the thumbnail for every “when did walter white become heisenberg?” video essay except with penguins lol
I can't take this thumbnail seriously
This is what happens when you give random people a DROP of power and control
Every community needs a story like that, but 5 million players is the number on literally Club Penguin
I legit did not expect a Club Penguin Video on 2023 lmao
im sorry but idk why i started laughing when penguin got behind bars with sirens going on in the background 💀
Man just called club penguin elite penguin force for the ds a terrible spin-off project. I'm not gonna let that one go. 0:53
I bet that guy never played the DS games.
No cap. For the first half I just thought this was a rise and fall of cpps video because I forgot the title
"Terrible spin off games" i cannot believe you just showed EPF..
Thank you for saying "Club Penguin" a lot. Abbreviating it to "CP" would have just made the video hard to follow, considering the talk of _actual_ CP.
I remember this. I was a member of a Club Penguin Army, the Pookie Army on Club Penguin Online. There was a whole scandal behind some Dom guy. We moved to another cpps for a while made especially for cpps armies before that shut down.
No way you were a pookie💀
Wow this was such an interesting video! Liked and subbed!
As a former admin/dev for CPO there's a lot more behind the scene then what you covered
Predators on CP, huh? They were probably looking for a different kind of… My lawyers advise me not to finish this joke.
Boy, I haven't heard the name Virtual Penguin in years... I used to be quite active there and wanted to be a moderator, I was applying to be a moderator but was turned down because I was too young. I eventually stopped being active and never heard of Virtual Penguin again. I never knew it was renamed to Club Penguin Online, and I DEFINITELY did not know the stuff that went down there. It's a bitter feeling now.
pixels great video as always!! although i think your camera is a little out of focus :p
Ty :) Can’t seem to figure the damn thing out
For a bit more context, CPO is back up but rebranded as New Club Penguin. If you type in Club penguin rewritten it also pops up, so I think that it needs to be said that club penguin online is reopened and rebranded, not club penguin rewritten
No, cpo is not back, newcp was hosted by a good-hearted ex moderator
Why did rewritten shut down? Idc enough to google it; and I’m already here so-
Making enough money from millions of people to the point they were making a living off of it
They illegally monetized ads. I remember having fun playing it since I never played Club Penguin but the mods ruined by turning into a monetization scheme.
video was so good i got through my trauma just to watch it
Came in expecting any usual predator video, came out with knowledge of an actual fucking penguin mafia
So glad more light’s being shed on this whole situation. Lots of people always think the sudden actions being taken against CPPS’s by Disney aren’t too fair, but most people don’t realize how unsafe servers like these are. This goes for any server or anything similar. Make sure you think before signing up to any of these, as custom servers can be made and promoted by anyone, with or without good intentions. Stay safe y’all 😌
Love the random "December 1963" in the end 😆
When disney bought CP, My one teacher got to retire as she got a cut of the money (family of the og founders) and the fact that the city it was founded in is currently classified as the worst CITY IN CANADA
Riley looked to change what CP in Club Penguin meant, and it's not Cheese Pizza
When you said "that sweet , sweet cheddar baby" at 2:36 , you sounded like Perez from South beach tow 😂
Fun fact: I personally knew one of the most infamous Club Penguin Rewritten mods: [Niko]Codey. It was back during my time as lead administrator of the Novanius Project, a homebrew Roblox Forum replacement I helped make in High School
I didnt expect riley to actually go to jail. I thought predators getting arrested was a TV thing
omg
what version of December 1963 is that? I LOVE IT!!! Wish I could hear the whole thing :O
Riley: I love CP
Twix: CP as in Club Penguin right?
Riley:
Twix: you mean Club Penguin right...?
I subbed bc of this video so glad this was recommended to me
Bro really put the CP in CP
Bro, this crazy.. but you should've seen 2012 cpps servers.
There is another cpps which similar to cpo called club penguin today, its owner was confirmed to be a predator which lead him to shutdown his cpps and gave up, his name is shuttle
Tw for Sexual harassment and grooming
I was not a victim of Riley, but rather one of the pedophiles that was let into the server, there was several of them but one of them caused me the most trauma. I was around 12 or 11 years old at the time, and was feeling lonely, so, I went into the pizza parlor. There was a group of boys there that I started talking to them, one guy asked me to go to his igloo with him. His username was "bunno" and... he basically made me do stuff with him, or else he would self harm. And I felt obligated in it. I'm 15 years old now, and it still scars me to this day
Win!
Oh gosh, I hope you recover from that past trauma. I can't believe someone would do such a wicked thing to a minor.

"Let's call it Club Penguin rewritten"
i’m really stoned and it’s 3am why do i go down these rabbit holes
Love your videos hope you get 1mil subs
Thank u!
The rise and fall of a power-hungry man. What a story and a hilarious downfall. That’s karma for him.
There's a massive history of not only games getting big be changed and destroyed by new owners.
So folks, a lesson to all:
If you ever make a growing game, NEVER EVER allow a multi-billionaire company obviously run by old people to buy your game. You will get a lot of money, but everything else will be ruined and you will start off having no idea.
“A tale of CP and CP”
I remember signing up and playing on Online. But when I turn my back on the server I look back and found this long doc letter explaining some drama and being so confused what the heck happened to cause such controversy.
1:40 Man I'd rather die than have an iPhony
CPjourney and others have recreated the perfected club penguin experience, with monthly changes and events too! I love seeing the club penguin tree regrow but terrible people will be terrible
"Its like if you had an iphone and i gave you an adroid" you mean if you had an android/nokia and you got an iphone?
Disney took a W for once
Brain: How many times am i gonna watch this?
Also brain: yes
No wayyyy, I heard about that server before! I think I even made an account, but got bored of it pretty quickly cause I couldn’t access the stuff I had on my original Club Penguin account. Glad I didn’t get into it 😳
I wasn't expecting to be attacked for my phone choice :(
subscribbed for the outro
What’s the music when the * all falls down * starts?
I looked up “club penguin dance” and found this, so yes I watched it anyways
he put the CP in CP
When i was younger, i like, loved Club Penguin island. Probably cuz it was 3d.
“You got the penguins?”
“Yep. They’re right here.”
riley freeman be going wild ngl
the guys who made club penguins rewritten was arrested for copyright in london
8:12 he wanted that cupcake ed penguin 😭
This is what I watch at 2am

Seems like flipnote and club penguin met the same fate
Riley talks like he grew up in a Shounen
I miss Club Penguin Rewritten
I remember one time,i think in 2021 i saw an archive version of the original Club Penguin, it wasn't playable because of Flash deleted and all of that thing.
I for real thought this was a death battles thumbnail at first 💀💀💀
Don’t shit on elite penguin force. Me and my boys finna waddle up on you
0:55 don’t talk down on club penguin game day that game still goes hard to this day
is this why my club penguin rewritten account tried to get hacked LMAO
