Hello Penguins!
It's that time of week where we post your reviews! Last week we asked you what your favorite role to play in a band was, and 472yellow said:
I personally like all of the positions, but i like playing the tuba. The tuba is so unique because it's THE BIGGEST INSTRUMENT EVER! I also like rocking out with the tuba because all my friends laugh and pretend to throw tomatoes at me. Then, i have to run backstage with my big tuba. Then we take our instruments and go to the pizza parlor for candy pizza!
Sweet! Thanks for your review.
Many of you told us how are excited you are to show everybody your pin collection with your new Stamp Book. So this week we'd like to know - out of all the pins you've collected - which one is your favorite?
Write your Reviewed By You answer as a comment. We'll post one (50 - 75 words, please) in next week's Reviewed By You. If your submission is chosen to be the feature comment on next week's blog, we'll add 10 000 coins to your penguin account. Don't forget to use your penguin name so we can add coins!
Until then... Waddle on!

Happy77 Asks About Stamps!
Greetings Penguins!
There's been TONS of talk about Stamps! As you probably know, your Stamp Books will arrive on July 26 and you'll be able to start earning stamps and showing them off, too.
I wanted to know more, so I asked a Stamps expert:
Q: How will I find my Stamp Book?
A: Just click on your player card. When you do, inside the book there are places for a whole bunch of stamps - and descriptions of how you can earn them.
Q: How do I earn Stamps?
A: Lots of different ways! There are easy stamps and extreme stamps, stamps you have to earn with buddies, and ones that you'll earn by showing off your skills in games. For example, to earn this stamp, you'll have to jackhammer at the 'berg with 30 penguins.
Q: Can I still get pins?
A: Yep, you sure can! Pins aren't going to change. And the best part is you can show off your ENTIRE pin collection inside your Stamp Book.
I would love to see a Stamp for making lots of candy pizzas. What would YOUR ultimate Stamp be?
Until then...Waddle on!

Lots Coming for Members!
Hello Penguins!
We saw how much you loved to dance and make music at Music Jam and we heard you loved the new member rooms - thanks for the great feedback!
We thought we'd let you know about some new things that are coming up just for members.
•Make music at the Lighthouse: Starting today musical instruments will be available in the Lighthouse all the time, because we love to see you guys jam!
•Design your igloo: We know how creative you are with your igloos and we wanted to give you more. If you liked the T-shirt builder in Penguin Style, you're going to love the new Better Igloos catalog.
•Spy Phone Updates: EPF Agents will face greater challenges to keep the island safe in August. You'll receive new Field-Op orders with more Spy Phone games to test your skills. Plus you'll be able to obtain brand new elite gear with your medals!
•Earn Stamps: Stamps will be available for everyone, and we wanted to give members access to exclusive stamps and features. As a result, some of the harder levels in games will be made member only. The games that will be changing are Jet Pack Adventure, Catchin' Waves, Thin Ice, Astro Barrier and Aqua Grabber. Don't worry, everyone will still be able to play the first few levels.
Members play a big role in making Club Penguin better all the time and we wanted a way to say thanks. We're excited to hear what you think!
Until then... waddle on!

Stamps! Coming Soon.
Hello Penguins!
Some of you have noticed that we've updated last Saturday's Sneak Peek over the week. Here's the last of those mystery images...
Lots of you sent in some great guesses about what you thought they might be. Corncand said:
These look like stamps or stickers! My guess is we will have an album to put them im every time we earn them and maybe we will have to do tasks to earn them anyway im excited!
Thanks Corncand! I couldn't have said it better myself. Starting July 26, you'll be able to earn and collect stamps!
Some of you commented that you think stamps are in games like Aqua Grabber. There's a lot more to stamps than just playing games... You'll have to work together to earn many of them!!
You'll get your own Stamp Book to put them in, and you can show off your collection to everyone.
We hope you're excited - can't wait to hear what you think.
Until then... Waddle on!

Hello Penguins!
It's time for another Reviewed by You! Last week we asked you what your favorite dance style was, and Lawain said:
Well, i like to make my own dance style, and i cant do this without my friends, cuz they love to dance! We love to swing our hands in the air and sing along to our favorite songs! We also love to breakdance so that the crowd will be amazed! We also love to combine dances to see how many possibilities there are to dance! We love to boogie to the beat, stomp our feet, and have a little treat afterwards!
Awesome - thanks Lawain!
Music Jam is set to rock the island until July 18, so we've got one last question for all you Jam-fans out there. When you're in a band, what's your favorite role to play? Are you lead singer? Backup dancer? Something unique?

I have a lot of pins that I wear at different times. For example, when I dress as a mermaid, I usually wear a starfish pin, the puffer fish, or the frog pin. If I become a princess, I put on my hairbrush pin, but my all time favorite pin would definitely be the cupcake because I can wear it with anything. I love the cupcake pin because it's a very creative pin. I love cupcakes and I adore the cupcake pin!

My favorite pin I have so far is probably, the moss key pin. Although, I am very fond of the tambourine pin it is pretty cool to. Over all I like the moss key pin the most, because it gives you acsess to a secret room and, you find it in a game.

I've collected a lot of pins over the year. And they're all so great.But, I prefer a special one. Like the recycle pin! It's a small symbol, but it changes the world by a %100. I'm pretty sure it's made out of recycled stuff from the recycle center near the mine (; Each pin, I have stands for something. So, I try to wear a new one everyday to show my 'pin-spirit'!

My favorite pin is the 150 newspaper pin. I like it because I looks very cool on other penguin's player cards.

It's that time of week where we post your reviews! Last week we asked you what your favorite role to play in a band was, and 472yellow said:
I personally like all of the positions, but i like playing the tuba. The tuba is so unique because it's THE BIGGEST INSTRUMENT EVER! I also like rocking out with the tuba because all my friends laugh and pretend to throw tomatoes at me. Then, i have to run backstage with my big tuba. Then we take our instruments and go to the pizza parlor for candy pizza!
Sweet! Thanks for your review.
Many of you told us how are excited you are to show everybody your pin collection with your new Stamp Book. So this week we'd like to know - out of all the pins you've collected - which one is your favorite?

I have a lot of pins that I wear at different times. For example, when I dress as a mermaid, I usually wear a starfish pin, the puffer fish, or the frog pin. If I become a princess, I put on my hairbrush pin, but my all time favorite pin would definitely be the cupcake because I can wear it with anything. I love the cupcake pin because it's a very creative pin. I love cupcakes and I adore the cupcake pin!

Club Penguin is a MMORPG (massively multiplayer online role-playing game) involving a virtual world containing a range of online games and activities, developed by Club Penguin Entertainment (formerly New Horizon Interactive). People have found ways to hack, resulting in a permanent banning. The most known program is Penguin Storm. Others include Club Penguin Beta Gear, CP Trainer, and others. Players use cartoon penguin-avatars and play in a winter-set virtual world. After beta-testing, Club Penguin was made available to the general public on October 24, 2005[2] and has since expanded into a large online community —growing to the extent that by late 2007, it was claimed that Club Penguin had over 12 million user accounts.[3] While free memberships are available, revenue is predominantly raised through paid memberships which allow players to access a range of additional features, (such as the ability to purchase virtual clothing, furniture, and in-game pets called "puffles", for their penguins through the use of in-game currency).[4] The success of Club Penguin led to New Horizon being purchased by The Walt Disney Company in August 2007 for the sum of $350 million, with an additional $350 million in bonuses should specific targets be met by 2009.[3]
The game was designed for the ages of 6 to 14.[5] Thus a major focus of the developers has been on child safety,[6] with a number of features introduced to the game to facilitate this — including offering an "Ultimate Safe Chat" mode, whereby users select their comments from a menu; filtering that prevents swearing and the revelation of personal information;[6] and moderators (along with veteran players) who police the game.[7] The game has been criticized for teaching consumerism[8] and allowing players to "cheat".[9]
Contents[hide] |
[edit] History and development
Development on Club Penguin began in 2003 when Lance Priebe and Lane Merrifield, employees at New Horizon Productions (which became New Horizon Interactive in 2005) in Kelowna, British Columbia,[10] saw a need for "social networking for kids".[4] As Merrifield later described the situation, they decided to build Club Penguin when they were unsuccessful in finding "something that had some social components but was safe, and not just marketed as safe" for their own children.[11] Merrifield and Priebe approached their employer, David Krysko, with the idea of creating a spinoff company to develop the new product.[10]
Prior to starting work on Club Penguin, Lance Priebe had been developing Flash web-based games in his spare time.[12] As part of Rocketsnail Games, Priebe released Experimental Penguins in 2000, which featured gameplay similar to that which was incorporated into Club Penguin. Although Experimental Penguins went off line in 2001, it was used as the inspiration for Penguin Chat, which was released shortly after Experimental Penguin's removal. Thus, when Priebe, Merrifield and Krysko decided to go ahead with Club Penguin in 2003, they had Penguin Chat on which to base part of the design process. After two years of testing and development, the first version of Club Penguin went live on October 24, 2005.[2]
Club Penguin started with 15,000 users, and by March that number had reached 1.4 million—a figure which almost doubled by September, when it hit 2.6 million.[10] By the time Club Penguin was two years old, it had reached 3.9 million users.[13] At the point when they were purchased by Disney, Club Penguin had 12 million accounts, of which 700,000 were paid subscribers, and were generating $40 million in annual revenue.[3]
Although the owners had turned down lucrative advertising offers and venture capital investments in the past,[10] in August 2007 they agreed to sell the company (both Club Penguin and the parent company) for the sum of $350 million.[3] In addition, the owners were promised bonuses of up to $350 million if they were able to meet growth targets by 2009.[14] In making the sale, Merrifield has stated that their main focus during negotiations was philosophical,[11] and that the intent was to provide themselves with the needed infrastructure in order to continue to grow.[4]
On March 11, 2008 Club Penguin released the Club Penguin Improvement Project (CPIP).[15] This project allowed players to be part of the testing of new servers put into use in Club Penguin on April 14, 2008.[16] Players had a "clone" of their penguin made, to test these new servers for bugs and glitches.[17] The testing was ended on April 4, 2008.[18]
In April 2008, Club Penguin opened its first international office in the UK for local support,[19] and Disney announced in June, 2008, plans to open an Australian office in August of that year.[20] They opened the Australian office in August 8[21] and opened a Brazilian office in November 8.[22]
On February 10, Club Penguin released French and Portuguese versions of the game.[23] On June 26, 2009 a Spanish version, for Latin America and Spain, was launched.[24]
[edit] Business model
Prior to being purchased by Disney, Club Penguin was almost entirely dependent on membership fees to produce a revenue stream.[6] Nevertheless, the vast majority of users (90% according to The Washington Post) chose not to pay, instead taking advantage of the free play on offer.[25] Those who choose to pay do so because full (paid) membership is required to access all of the services, such as the ability to purchase virtual clothes for the penguins and buy decorations for igloos;[8] and because peer pressure has created a "caste system" separating paid from unpaid members.[26] Advertising, both in-game and on-site, has not been incorporated into the system, although some competitors have chosen to employ it: for example Whyville, which uses corporate sponsorship,[27] and Neopets, which incorporates product placements.[28]
An alternative revenue stream has come through the development of an online merchandise shop, which opened on the Club Penguin website in August 2006,[29] selling stuffed Puffles and T-shirts. Key chains, gift cards, and more shirts were added on November 7, 2006.[30] October 2008 saw the release of a line of plush toys based on characters from Club Penguin, which were made available online (both through the Club Penguin store and Disney's online store), and in retail outlets.[31]
As with one of its major rivals, Webkinz, Club Penguin has traditionally relied almost entirely on word-of-mouth advertising to increase the membership.[32]
[edit] Child safety
Club Penguin was designed for the ages of 6–14.[5] Thus, one of the major concerns when designing Club Penguin was how to improve both the safety of participants and the suitability of the game to children. As Lane Merrifield stated, "the decision to build Club Penguin grew out of a desire to create a fun, virtual world that I and the site's other two founders would feel safe letting our own children visit."[33] As a result, Club Penguin has maintained a strong focus on child safety,[34] to the point whereby the security features have been described as almost "fastidious" and "reminiscent of an Orwellian dystopia", although it has also been argued that this focus may "reassure more parents than it alienates."[35]
The system employs a number of different approaches in an attempt to improve child safety. The key approaches include preventing the use of inappropriate usernames,[36] providing an "Ultimate Safe Chat" mode, which limits players to selecting phrases from a list,[34] using an automatic filter during "Standard Safe Chat" (which allows users to generate their own messages)[37] and blocks profanity even when users employ "creative" methods to insert it into sentences,[36] filtering seemingly innocuous terms, such as "mom", and blocking both telephone numbers and email addresses.[34] It also includes employing paid moderators; out of 100 staff employed in the company in May 2007, Merrifield estimated that approximately 70 staff were dedicated to policing the game.[32] It also includes promoting some veteran users to "secret agent" status, and encouraging them to report inappropriate behavior.[34]
Each game server offers a particular type of chat—the majority allowing either chat mode, but some servers allow only the "Ultimate Safe Chat" mode. When using "Standard Safe Chat", all comments made by users are filtered. When a comment is blocked, the user who made the comment sees it, but other users are unaware that it was made—suggesting to the "speaker" that they are being ignored, rather than encouraging them to try and find a way around the restriction.[34]
Beyond these primary measures, systems are in place to limit the amount of time spent online, and the site does not feature any advertisements, for, as described by Merrifield, "within two or three clicks, a kid could be on a gambling site or an adult dating site".[32] Nevertheless, after Club Penguin was purchased by Disney, concerns were raised that this state of affairs may change, especially in regard to potential spin-off products[38] — although Disney has continued to insist that it believes advertising to be "inappropriate" for a young audience.[28]
Players who use profanity are often punished by an automatic 24-hour ban, although not all vulgar language results in an immediate ban. Players found by moderators to have broken Club Penguin rules are punished by a ban lasting "from 24 hours to forever depending on the offense."[39]
[edit] Memberships
[edit] Subscribed memberships
Players may pay to become subscribed members[40] and doing so grants them additional in-game benefits.[40] Players who have paid membership may buy clothing, wigs and furniture, own up to eighteen "Puffles" (the virtual pets of Club Penguin), enjoy early access to new parts of the game, buy furniture for their puffles, have access to all puffle breeds, and open up their Igloos to be shown on the "Member Igloos" section of the Map. Members also have access to Members-only parties hosted by Club Penguin.
Memberships range in price. They are shown below:
| Length of Membership | Price (USD) |
|---|---|
| 1 month | $5.95[41] |
| 3 months1 | $14.95 |
| 6 months | $29.95[41] |
| 1 year | $57.95[41] |
1Limited-time membership. This is not currently available.
Game cards in the $5.95 and $29.95 amount are also available at stores across the USA, such as Walmart and Toys "R" Us.[42]
[edit] Non-members
Club Penguin provides a "non-membership" option. Although such play is free, it does not include all the benefits of being a member.[8] Non-members may still purchase different colors for their penguins, buy player-card backgrounds, purchase flag pins, and play games. Non-members may also receive and use items given out at parties that are held monthly for all players. However, non-members are restricted to only two red or blue puffles, and no member-only puffles may be bought,[43] (although if a former member once owned puffles, they may be kept). Non-members cannot purchase clothes, furniture, wigs, hats, or igloo upgrades.[26]
[edit] Beta testers
During the beta stages of Club Penguin's development, anyone could sign up to be a beta tester. Beta testers received special benefits upon the official release of Club Penguin, including a month of paid membership, coins and a pink and yellow party hat.[44] After beta testing, Club Penguin was released to the general public on October 24, 2005.[2]
[edit] Environment
Club Penguin is divided into various rooms and distinct areas. Illustrator Peter Welleman designed many of the first environments.
Each player is provided with an igloo for a home. Members have the option of opening their igloo so other penguins can access it via the map, under "Member Igloos".[42] Members may also purchase larger igloos and decorate their igloos with items bought with virtual coins earned by playing mini-games.[25]
[edit] The Stage
The Stage was released in November 2007 in the Plaza.[45] Subscribed members may buy costumes for the play, an option that non-members do not have. The script for the play is located at the bottom-right corner of the screen. When clicked, a list of lines is brought up. Each month, a new play is released.
[edit] The Party
Every time a new Party is happening in Club Penguin, usually a special room that's name has to do with the Party is released. These rooms are normally members only. They have special games or free items in them.
[edit] Game features
[edit] Emoticons
Players can express their feelings with emoticons. There are numerous emoticons, such as a happy face, a sad face, angry face, and winking. The emoticons appear above the avatar's head in a speech bubble. On December 5, 2007, the heart and skull emoticons were removed because players found these offensive, and were replaced with the flower emoticon. On January 9, 2008 the heart emoticon was brought back as a result of popular demand by players, suggesting that it could be used in a positive and caring way.Some emoticons are hidden when player presses certain letters and symbols on there keyboard. [46]
[edit] Items
Members may use the virtual coins that they collect from playing mini games to purchase various items from a wide variety of shops.[47] Shop types include clothing, wigs, stage costumes, igloos, furniture, and sports. Members and non-members alike may also purchase new colors for their penguins and backgrounds for their player card.
Each player has their own penguin card, which is used to manage the player's inventory.[48] Players may decorate their card by purchasing new backgrounds, clothing and other items.[48] Penguin cards can also be to display "pins" - new examples of which appear within Club Penguin every two weeks. Pins are free, but are hidden throughout the game. On January 4, 2008, Club Penguin hid their 50th pin,[49] a snow shovel. Flags are similar to pins; they also appear in the top left-hand corner of a player's penguin card.
Clothes are worn by penguins, which can either be bought or given out during parties. Only members can buy clothes, but those given out at parties are wearable by all penguins.
Members' igloos can be upgraded into many different styles, such as a snow-globe. Some igloo styles are themed for parties, such as the Bamboo Hut or Log Cabin. Furniture may be bought for the igloos of subscribed members and can be used to design and decorate an igloo.[50] Flooring for an igloo (introduced January 19, 2007)[51] is also only accessible by subscribed members.
[edit] Puffles
Puffles are small, fluffy creatures that players may have as pets. They are available from the Pet Shop in blue, green, pink, black, purple, red, yellow, white, and orange. Non-members have access to the blue and red puffles only, and may have no more than two; members may adopt up to eighteen puffles.[43] Members whose membership has expired are permitted to keep their puffles, but they cannot replace them once they have run away.
Puffles have health, rest, and energy bar charts to indicate their status. Puffles which are not "looked after" will run away from the player, and will need to be replaced.[52]
There are nine official breeds of puffles, each with a different personality (as described in the in-game "Adopt a Puffle" catalog):[52]
- Blue Puffles are known to be mild-tempered and content. (IS available to non-members)
- Green Puffles are very energetic and playful, and like to "clown around".[52]
- Purple Puffles are dancers, and are described as being "usually happy", but are "finicky eaters".[52]
- Red Puffles (from "Rockhopper Island", the home of pirate penguin Rockhopper) are known to be adventurous and enthusiastic. (Is available to non-members)
- Pink Puffles are very active and cheery, and like to exercise.
- Black Puffles are described as possessing a strong and silent disposition.
- Yellow Puffles were added in November 2007.[53] They are depicted as both artistic and spontaneous.
- White Puffles were introduced in March 2009. They play with ice skates and can create a snowfall.[54]
- Orange Puffles were introduced in February 2010.[55] They have a goofy, playful attitude, and often very sleepy. They were seen in the box dimension and the ski village on the lift going to the mountain.
[edit] Club Penguin Times
Club Penguin has a free virtual weekly newspaper delivered every Thursday.[56] It is accessed from within the game and contains news about Club Penguin and features games, comics, polls, a calendar and more. It also has an advice column where a player can write to Aunt Arctic and ask questions about Club Penguin.[57] Any user can submit questions, jokes, riddles, poems, comics, fan art, and tips or secrets to The Penguin Times, which may be chosen and displayed in the next issue. A particular honor is to be named "Penguin of The Month". Within the game, the Boiler Room under the Night Club contains an archive of newspapers from the last six weeks.[56]
[edit] Video games
[edit] Nintendo DS
Main articles: Club Penguin: Elite Penguin Force and Club Penguin: Elite Penguin Force: Herbert's Revenge
A video game was released by Disney for the Nintendo DS on November 25, 2008. As members of the "Elite Penguin Force", players solve mysteries around Club Penguin. The game features mini-games from Club Penguin; coins earned by the mini-games can be transferred to the player's Club Penguin account.[58] A sequel, Club Penguin: Elite Penguin Force: Herbert's Revenge, was announced on February 13, 2010 with release planned for that summer. A "mysterious penguin" resembling previously established character Dot the Disguise Gal is a major character in the game.[59]
[edit] Nintendo Wii
In 2010, Disney Interactive Studios announced plans for Club Penguin: Game Day!, a game for the Nintendo Wii. It was reported that the game will be released on September 1st, 2010.[60] It was reported that the game will involve players working as a team trying to earn sections of land on an island, with the objective being to conquer the island. The game will be based around several interactive games, some of which are 3D versions of games currently played on the internet game. Players will reportedly be able to customize their penguins, and any points earned in the Wii game can be syncronised with the internet game.[61]
[edit] Coins For Change
[edit] 2007
Coins For Change was an in-game donation available from December 14, 2007 to December 24, 2007, in which players could donate their virtual coins to any of three charitable issues: Kids who are sick, the environment, and kids in developing countries.[62] Players could donate in increments of 50, 250, or 500 virtual coins. At the end of the campaign, the New Horizon Foundation donated a total of $1 million to the World Wide Fund for Nature, the Elizabeth Glaser Pediatric AIDS Foundation, and Free The Children.[62][63] The proportion of the 1 million dollars that each organization received depended on how many virtual coins were donated by players toward each issue.[62] For example, if most players donated their virtual coins to the environment, the environmental organization would get a higher percentage than the other organizations. Over one million dollars were donated by two-and-a-half million people.[62]
[edit] 2008
Coins for Change returned on December 12, 2008.[64] This time a total of one million dollars was donated by two-and-a-half million people.[64] In addition to the donations made to the organizations, Club Penguin decided to contribute another $500,000 to support charitable causes in the areas where Club Penguin maintains international operations as they were so impressed by the enthusiastic response to Coins For Change.[64]
[edit] 2009
Coins for Change returned on December 11 and ended on December 20, 2009.
[edit] Books
In honor of Club Penguin's third anniversary in 2008, Club Penguin released books that are published under the Snowball Press name.[65] Outside of the virtual world, such books are published by Grosset & Dunlap and include guidebooks for the game as well as "choose-your-own-adventure" style books.[65] The series includes The Ultimate Official Guide to Club Penguin Volume 1 by Ladybird Books, Stowaway! Adventures at Sea by Tracey West, Stuck on Puffles by Ladybird Books, and Waddle Lot of Laughs by Rebecca McCarthy.[65]
[edit] Limited Penguins
Limited Edition Penguins are plushes based on Club Penguin penguins. They are made by Jakks Pacific. Each plush in each series comes with a Coin Code, which unlocks 2 items of one's choice from the latest Treasure Book.[66]
[edit] Reception and criticism
Club Penguin has received positive reviews and criticism: the site has been used by positive model when training police in Canada, and it was awarded a "kids' privacy seal of approval" from the Better Business Bureau.[67] Similarly, Brian Ward, a Detective Inspector at the Child Abuse Investigation Command in the United Kingdom, stated that he would far rather children experience a system such as Club Penguin before moving into social networking sites, which provide less protection.[68] In terms of simple popularity, the rapid growth of Club Penguin suggests considerable success, although there are signs that this is leveling out. Nielsen figures released in April, 2008 indicated that in the previous 12 months Club Penguin traffic had shrunk by 7%.[69]
A criticism expressed by commentators is that the game encourages consumerism[8] and allows players to cheat.[9] While Club Penguin does not require members to purchase in-game products with real-life money (instead relying on a set monthly fee), players are encouraged to earn coins within the game with which to buy virtual products. In addition, the "competitive culture" that this can create has led to concerns about cheating, as children look for "shortcuts" to improve their standing, and, it is suggested, this may influence their real-world behavior.[9] In the game's defense, Club Penguin has added guidelines to prevent cheating, banning players who are caught, and even going after those who encourage the practice outside of the confines of the game.[9] While on the consumerist front, some commentators have stated that the use of in-game money may help teach children how to save money, choose what to spend it on, and improve their abilities at math,[8][25] encouraging them to "practice safe money-management skills".[70]
In spite of the attempts to create a safe space for children in Club Penguin, concerns about safety and behavior still arise within the media. While the language in-game is filtered, discussions outside of Club Penguin are beyond the owner's control, and thus it has been stated that the off-site forums can become "as bawdy as any other chat".[26] But even within the game, some commentators have noted that "cyberbullying" can still occur,[71] with flame wars potentially occurring within the game;[7] and the "Caste system" between those who have membership and items and those who lack full membership, (and therefore are unable to own the "coolest" items), can lead to players having a hard time attracting friends.[26]
One criticism came from Caitlin Flanagan in The Atlantic Monthly: in relation to the safety procedures, she noted that Club Penguin is "certainly the safest way for unsupervised children to talk to potentially malevolent strangers—but why would you want them to do that in the first place?"[7] While views of the strength of this criticism may vary, the concern was mirrored by Lynsey Kiely in the Sunday Independent, who quoted Karen Mason, Communications Director for Club Penguin, as saying "we cannot guarantee that every person who visits the site is a child."[6]
