Disney ruined an amazing website
I honestly feel so bad for the kids today who have to play the "new" and apparently "improved" club penguin. I got an account on this in 2005, the year it came out. Me and my friends had so much fun on this! It wasn't like a toddler website, but more of a tweenish kind of website. In 2006 I would have rated it 8+. But then, in 2008, disney has to make MORE money of course, and they buy club penguin. Well I stopped going on it in 2008 because of disney! I go back on in 2010, and I see stupid members bullying non-members because they are "poor" so I go and stick up for them, and they start bullying all non-members! So I write an angry note to disney saying that I'm not happy, and they just say they are sorry and stuff. CONCLUSION: Disney is advertising memberships WAY to much! Go on their website, all you see is club penguin ads splattered everywhere! Now, members think they have a right to be rude, and one even called me "bay"! I think we all know what that means! So I hope disney stops memberships, because in 2005-2007, no member was mean! All members care about now is clothing and looks, even though they are penguins! Plus, members go out with each other and pretend kiss on it. I hate club penguin members... and I hope disney is happy.

Not that safe for kids.
Club penguin has extremely bad issues with bad language, Teens/Kids/Adults will litterly jump in a conversation and say something violent or inappropiate. There's a money problem also, Kids cannot buy stuff for their igloo or penguin without paying real money, and the prices are moterlly expensive. It's also not educational, while you can buy a so called ''Puffle'' and feed and water it, and it leaves if you don't feed play or water it, There's no more education then just that. Kids find it interesting, but it mostly lacks of things that should be taught.

Don't join. Ever.
Okay first off, do not waste money on membership. Your penguin ends up banned whether you do anything or not within a few years or less. Parents; do not take what disney claims your child "did" seriously. They over advertise, people can have sex on there and not be banned, people will bully, scam, and get your personal information. Your child will probably feel pressured to date on there, but the truth is, a ton of old creepers are probably on the other end. Trust me, i played club penguin for a few years, and i got permanently banned on an account i spend 300+ dollars on. Why? Because some guy tries to go out with me, and i tell him "No, I don't date". They call that BULLYING. And they encourage ROLLPLAY, which is fine except the only rollplay there is inappropriate. My advice, don't even join. A great site I'd recommend is fantage* Its very safe and theres lots for members, and nonmembers, to do.

I Used To Like This
When I was younger I liked Club Penguin. I don't think it's very inappropriate or anything. Occasionally some people might pretend to kiss or something, but that's about it. Overall, it's a safe, cute game. However, I must warn you of something. Teenagers, when they get bored, will sometimes make an account with their friends and go around doing crazy things(i.e. swear, yell at people, bother people, etc.). I know that this is true because I do this on occasion.

I love hanging out at club penguin with my friends outside of club penguin and I also love meeting new ones. But I find as I learn more and more things about club penguin that this isn't the best website I could be at, and has nothing to do with the creators of this site it has to with the users. What I mean by this is that there are a great amount of cyber bullying, lying, working around the rules, users influence skipping class, and cheating on this website. By cyber bullying I mean there are many cliques, and it seems that you are not "cool" if you do not wear black and aren't a member. By lying I mean users have made up some kind of adoption center at the pet shop where penguins adopt "bay bees" they are also an issue with cyber bullying, if he or she who want to "adopt" a bay bee doesn't have flashy clothes and doesn't act like they are rich, that "bay bees" will reject in a mean way. Also by working around the rules I mean it seems that penguin "hook up" on club penguin. They use the heart symbol to show affection to each other and say things like "say i if you are a boy and visa versa and they also say "girls meet guys in the coffee shop" visa versa they also say things like "guys meet guys at the coffee shop" and the same thing with girls. I think this is absolutely just disturbing. Next when I say users influence skipping class I mean first somebody starts a "college at their igloo" and when penguins go to that place many users say, "is skipping class" or things like that. Finally there is very many cheating websites and cheat programs one of the most popular cheat programs is penguin storm. Basically it works around everything thats good about club penguin, the educational value, safety, ect. Also there are password snatcher programs. The positives of this website are many ways to express yourself, and a fun place to hangout with friends. I hope this review helped you

Some minor problems, but it's overall a great experience.
I really love this site. I think it's really fun to be on. You can be a secret agent, a cook, and even go sledding! My only concerns are the memberships and the language. Without a membership, there really isn't much to do. You can't even buy clothes without a membership. That is what sucks about it. The language is that it turns out that some penguins choose to have boyfriends and girlfriends, pretend to have kids and start a family. I haven't seen a single penguin say a bad word. Overall, it has been a wonderful experience.

My review
Cute,fun way to interact with friends. But if someone were to say a swear word or give out info, almost always nobody catches it because so many people use the website. Also can get boring if your not a member

Club Penguin. Can be an angel and devil
I think ClubPenguin is very appropiate. They might try to say he**, and say "fell", but that happens VERY occasionally. One thing about it which is very negative is paying membership. If your a non member, you could get pretty crappy stuff. I believe that membership souldn't exist so kids with membership (like me,) won't brag and make fun of people just because their not members. I don't do that. I support non-members anyway I can, and try to eliminate bullying for unpaid penguins. Disney can be iffy, but overall ClubPenguin is a really nice website.

Fun, but Boring
It can be fun. But it can get boring. There isn't a lot of stuff to do if your not a member. If your a member you have more of a variety of stuff to do. But of corse, it costs money.

Club Penguin is okay
Club penguin is a fun game! I do know that club penguin was made 2005 so it only started off with no members. but when wigs came out at the gift shop we just dont look like a penguin. Yes there has been inappropiate things going around Club penguin. There also is another problem i saw on Club penguin which might be causing anger issuse to other players. Club penguin has a pet shop and when you go inside there has been penguins dressing up as a babie who are very annoying to other players and other penguins are trying to play peacefully. It also means that people are getting angry at others and start to swear and the penguin babies do inappropriate things. Some good news i would say about CP is that there is fun games and partys! you get to dress up your penguins and get free coins by playing games on it. You dont always have to log in to your penguin but you can look around the website and find colouring pages but instead of glued to the computers and get thicker glasses theres lots to life then a computer! like riding your bike and baking! Club penguin is a okay website but i dont log into it anymore but maybe like once a month and that about it and then i go off and start swinging on the swing sets! i might go look at the treasure books and check out their toys and find some wallpaper of club penguin. it wasnt as fun as the old days. today we are trying to grow up into adults. after you read this what do you think?

Some "fun things" that you shouldnt do but you can get away with it
I still play Club Penguin and its fun. But latley some things have been happening. A while ago I went to my buddies igloo on CP and I saw something that you shoulnt be doing. My friend, a gilr penguin, was naked and saying things like "hugs closey" to a boy penguin. Very innapropiate(sorry for my ba spelling). If you say a bad word on CP you get banned forever or few 24 hours. Once I accidently said the word sec but with an X. I got banned but it was good to know that people get banned for saying things like that. What I like about CP is that you can be creative. I love decerating my igloo. Its a lot of fun. But some people decide to make there igloos into something bad. When I was 9 I went to the town on CP and some one said that there was a bounce party at an igloo. I didnt know that he ment bouncing, as in touching each other. I went to the party and didnt see any bouncy house. What I saw was naked penguins bouncing on each other. I think CP should do something about all this innapropiate behaivor. I also think a new trend is starting. Being racies(again, sorry for the bad spelling). Your penguin can be different colors like black or brown. A lot of penguins like to be brown. One non-member brown penguin wanted to join a game of snowball fighting, but the penguins said now negros aloud. I reported the player that said that and tried to comfort the offended brown colored penguin. If all these things get worse I will stop playing CP for good. Being 11 and all this really bothers me. There should be a way for the CP people to stop this bad and innapropiate behavior.

Overall, terrible
This game is terrible, no doubt. It has safety issues all around it, people saying "FREE GUYS SAY I". It's TERRIBLE. I know some kids will say it's the best, but trust me, it's boring and it's unsafe for your child. Things cost waaaaaaaaaay too much. If you don't pay the game for a membership, you can't do anything. You can go on the game but you cannot dress your penguin or decorate an igloo and players WITH memberships will exclude you in many events because you're not a member. You will also get excluded from many parties in the game that the staff of Club Penguin make. I would not recommend this game to any gamers. The graphics are terrible, you're just a flat screen penguin, you can swear by typing the swear in a different form. Some players pretend to be criminals and even "rob" other players by going up to the other player and saying "Steals purse" or "robs". So no, I would NEVER recommend this game.

fun if you know how to playit
the game is fun at first with all the puffle pets and stuff,but after awhile it gets kind of boring.you can do nothing but waddle around and talk!the games and secret agent missions are the only very entertaining things for a nonmember in the game.the game also heavily tries to make players buy a membership.

Extremely popular game--and extreme popularity is never good.
While Club Penguin is a fun game for kids and tweens with cute graphics, there are some things in it that I have problems with it. One of them is Membership. A large amount of content in Club Penguin is only available for members. You need membership to unlock certain parts of games, buy clothing from the catalogs, upgrade your igloo, buy all the puffles, get igloo furniture, and more. Another one is Club Penguin families. Baby talk is extremely annoying and the fact that only members get adopted 90% of the item is extremely frustrating for non-members.

Great starter virtual world!
Hello I have my own club penguin and I believe it is fun (back when I was about 7 or 8) It has missions to complete, you can become and EPF (elite penguin force) penguin, and a tour guide. I can get boring except for parties for kids about 5th grade and up. They block all numbers (except when you write it like: won, too/to, tree, for, ate, tin) They have a very strong "bad" words filter. Once you say the word, or type it in and hit enter it will say your penguin has been banned for so-n-so days. Also it is made by disney so all things in it will eb alright. This is a great, starter virtual world for your kids, becuase ourworld, stardoll, and facebook!

Language is not a problem!
While many people can use Club Penguin for "mischeif" generally, you won't see those penguins the next time you log on. If your child or you don't feel comfortable with a person, simply click their player card, and ignore them. You won't be able to see a word they say, and you can report them to about 16 specific reasons. You can "type" any message and think it shows up, but "loser" doesn't even show up on anybody else's screen. There are chat logs, so if you don't catch who says anything bad, you can look back. There is no real reason to be worried about saftey, but is a time consumer. Time flies by, which is a worry for many parents. It is easy to unaddict yourself though. I recommend to ages 8-14. Children should outgrow it with time.
