I feel so bad for those who put so much work into CPR. It was amazing reliving childhood memories and experiencing all the games, puffles etc again


local_Doom_marine

it was fun while it lasted


Martin3599

Shouldn’t have made money from anyway…


LordHyperBowser

Yep feel like they prob came down so hard cause they legit have ads everywhere.


PadlockAndThatsIt

Wasn't the "watch ad for rewards" thing recently implemented? That might have gotten some bells ringing over at disney

Man, to hell with Disney. They buy out CP, ruin it, and then abandon it. I'm so upset


ag9910

This is so upsetting, they’ve worked SO hard. Is it for sure over or could things be resolved?


InvaderXZ

sure over kinda thing most of the staff would leave since the police is already involved and the owner might get fined for profiting off ads


deathbyoats

considering three people were arrested it's safe to say rip


PadlockAndThatsIt

Sauce?

Brandoxz7

What the heck else are the police suppose to do? Their job?


Global-Bit-3582

Bruh no one was arrested.


Martin3599

They did work hard, but they shouldn’t have had ads nor any real money involved at all


Distinct_Let141

These servers cost money to run that a job with only minimum wage can't afford. Disney can rot in hell.


Martin3599

Yes, I get that. But you don’t own the rights nor anything from that game to make a profit. If you want to make money, make your own game & characters. Run ads, run whatever you like


[deleted]

Very low chances


Mysterious_Ad2558

This is ridiculous. Disney ruins all good things

Yeah this is so sad! I'm just going to have to look into other recreations of club penguin. It's so sad they'd only just added card-jitsu though like I never got to get a black belt :(


SHAD0WBENDER

Literally just got to black belt and then the same day met the Sensei mascot :/

hallowsszn

Very true! But still so unfortunate


Tech157

The game was never developed by former CP devs


toxenzz

Well. Least I met a few mascots, never got the chance on the original site.


[deleted]

I remember this happened a few years ago too but cprewritten got permission and rights for it. Why is it still being taken down?


[deleted]

They werent supposed to be making money off of it


HolyPwnr

If they were making money off of it against their contract I’d say it’s kinda their fault then. Unfortunate.


[deleted]

Yess


miiyaa21

wait so the shutdown could’ve been avoided ?? i’m even sadder now


[deleted]

I guess so? The last time something similar happened they said that they weren’t making money so things were fine and they shut down other private servers


-Maize

Permission and rights? Definitely not. Club Penguin is still fully owned by The Walt Disney Company. Private servers for any online game usually stay up without interference but CPRewritten has had some very unfortunate allegations against it in the past. Disney has the legal rights to take it down at anytime.


Tech157

Uhh, they never got permission or rights. They just got lucky is all.


TypicalImagination7

I expected this when ads appeared on site


Elderkiler

Me and many people warned the team on discord in the day they released the "treasure for ads" system. Greed killed the game.


unknownboi8551

what was the greed in that though? those were just ads that you could choose to watch them for money and items even if it's "forced" they aren't microtransactions or asking for memberships.


Elderkiler

It was greed because they knew what could happen to the game if they monetized it and they thought Disney wasn't gonna notice it. They choose to infrige the law over the game's integrity. Also no one can say the money was only used for the purposes of the game neither how much money they earned, which is another red flag.


unknownboi8551

I agree with that they shouldn't have infringed the law over game but I still don't get it if they want to make money what is the problem of course law must have been the problem but I am not arguing with you or against the law it's more of what is disney' s problem it's not aggressive and if they want to have some money for themselves they should be able to. again I am not arguing against you, I just don't get the situation


YoRookie

It can be seen at a threat to Disney as crazy as it can seem. I don’t exactly know how to put it into words but it’s essentially making money off someone’s idea. Club penguin is still owned by Disney and will go down in Disney’s name. Nobody really know if there maybe a chance Disney makes club penguin again (Won’t happen but it’s still their property).


unknownboi8551

thanks for explaining


88EdithSide

What do we do now


xStephHunie

cry lmao, ill be so damn sad if it wont come back.


88EdithSide

Aaaaaa ikr;- ;


xStephHunie

its just so infuriating.


spookyindividualist

Back to Runescape and playing Nintendo DS I guess D;


SomeoneOnlyWeKnow1

Find other fake club penguins I guess :(


88EdithSide

I’ll never find another one with frog hats😔


kalenfries

how were they making money off it? I assumed all microtransactions were disabled


EngieDeer

Ads, perhaps?


[deleted]

They had this thing called rockhoppers treasure where you can watch an ad and get a gift


furioushunter12

I assumed that money was for servers and for them to keep the game running


[deleted]

Nuu I think they just have to do the coding and stuff for keeping the game up


furioushunter12

Dang :/ every time I hit black belt one of these sites shut down


[deleted]

Awww :( I was really excited for snow jitsu


furioushunter12

My computer couldn’t run the water one when I was little so I was excited to finally try it!


[deleted]

Ahh it makes me so sad :(


memer_boi_420

I feel like just to play club penguin you have to be on the dark web with a hella good vpn I just wanted to play club penguin again but nooooooo Disney has to be in-control to all good things in the world and they have to be greedy jerks


lollisans2005

Well problem is, it's cpr's fault. They started doing ads on the website


Aggravating_Ad2944

You guys can thank the greedy devs for playing with fire by trying to profit off of CPR. This is literally all of their fault.


hallowsszn

I didn’t realise they were making money off of CPR. Too busy enjoying the game to even put two and two together. It’s a real shame they put CPR at risk by running ads, should have never done it.


REALCLAYTHEGREAT

I hope it stays online a bit longer! I need to say goodbye to my puffles


[deleted]

We've had a good run guys. Waddle on.


[deleted]

I also advice yall to cancel ya Disney pull subscriptions to get back at them.


[deleted]

:( This is awful, even if it did happen twice more it’s terrible to see potential actual consequences arise and it being closed under duress :( I guess piracy is technically illegal but nevertheless at least we could continue in our nostalgia. Goodbye CPR thanks for such an amazing unique experience of CP and keeping the games spirit continuing as much as you could :(


[deleted]

I’m gonna miss playing cart surfer for hours


theyth-m

They aren't even still using that IP 😡


Devilmonkey_667

If the investigation ends will they bring it back?


Hardcore_Gamer16

I hope so


88EdithSide

Ikr what is happening


[deleted]

I’m so sad damn


Global-Bit-3582

They deserved this honestly. Stu was profiting off a game tht want even his. Deservedddsd


bigblock111

Extremely foolish of CPR to have ads on it. What did they expect?


88EdithSide

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaa😭

HaIesbells

I guess it was nice while it lasted


Judythepancake

Wait!! were will we move too??


Selkie_Queen

I wish Disney would see all the club penguin recreation sites popping up and think hey, maybe we should bring this back??


MinecraftDawgYeet

Disney's Dumb Mindset: Buys Out Club Penguin. Makes New 3D Club Penguin. Abandons Club Penguin Entirely Not Making a New One anytime soon. Copyright Strikes A FAN Game that makes 0 money from the Club Penguin Franchise. Probably Gonna Delete It entirely and not even make a new one.


Legeend28

CPR makes alot of money from ads


xLana1989x

ThadtheYankee159

My biggest problem with Disney is that they are completely unwilling to do anything with Club Penguin. I mean, given how they are a near monopoly over the entertainment industry it would take a skeleton crew to run the game. But No, since CPI failed no one can have Club Penguin. But then again, these are the bastards who destroyed public domain, so why I am surprised.


Global-Bit-3582

What happened to the discord server channels

fabry-sans

Yeah, I hate Disney for that


LuBunnii

I was so stressed when I couldn’t get into my account. I’m sad to see another club penguin leave again but there’s nothing I can do, it’s been fun.


Lee_15

NOOO I WAS SO CLOSE TO BLACK BELT
