For over 12 years Club Penguin was the place to hang out with your friends after school and chill out as chubby penguins together. While the franchise had a number of spin off games, nothing ever compared to the original MMO. The original Club Penguin servers were shut down in 2017. Detectives told the BBC that the man from London has been released on bail. We continue to enforce our rights against this, and other, unauthorised uses of the Club Penguin game.”Īccording to the aforementioned BBC article, one man involved in the site has been arrested on suspicion of possessing child abuse images. In a statement, the company said, “Child safety is a top priority for the Walt Disney Company and we are appalled by the allegations of criminal activity and abhorrent behaviour on this unauthorised website that is illegally using the Club Penguin brand and characters for its own purposes. In response, Disney has issued copyright notices to all private server games hosting the Club Penguin clones, giving them a strict deadline to close or face legal action from Disney. The BBC used multiple accounts to investigate the claims and found examples of racist, homophobic, and anti-Semistist language being used, along with the sexual role play. In the fan-made server, the creators had disabled the offensive language filter in order to allow players to engage in “penguin e-sex”, according to the BBC. This is where the issue lies, as the nature of this particular Club Penguin clone was not suitable for children at all. These clones are relatively easy to find online, with even children finding their way onto the servers. It seems some fans have missed the original so much that they made their own server of the game, using stolen or copied source code.
