NOTE: This post does not reflect the views of the Army of Club Penguin, the leadership, or of their soldiers. It is just one man’s opinion.
In the past two days, it seems that what we have come to know as Club Penguin warfare has been turned upside town, thrown in a paper shredder, and then used to light a fire. That fire, of course, being the organization we have come to know as the Purple Republic, or the Penguins of the Purple Republic, as they have named themselves. Since this organization first was noticed by armies and Club Penguin Army Central roughly two days ago, seemingly beginning with Kingfunks4’s post, “PR: How prepared should we be?” the whole army community has seemed to go into a panic. One of the finest examples of this was the martial law that was, and still is, being enforced by the ACP leadership, something I have never seen before. The Pink Alliance-created purposely to enrage the PR- was hastily formed by NW soldiers and people rushed to join and fight the Purple Republic, CPAC posted an exclusive interview with their very mysterious leader, Violentalleta, and the PR proved that they are very much capable of being anywhere on Club Penguin at any time. When I first saw the existence of this Purple Republic, and the response most of all armies had given to their appearance, I will admit that what I saw was a Color War beginning to take form, a non-stop battle between overwhelming masses of both the color purple and their hated counterpart, pink, that could last for God knows how long. What I have seen since then, I must admit, has dissappointed me.
You all, the same people that seemed so eager to fight the Purple Republic a mere 48 hours ago, have decided it should be better to ignore the Purple Republic. Many of you now insist that the Purple Republic are people that will hack us, our precious armies, and quite literally, destroy armies. You suggest that the majority of them are bots, when this is entirely incorrect, as you would know if you have seen the PR in action. I have even seen those in the Pink Alliance tell each other to use bots if they know how to make them, something that is entirely unnacceptable in Club Penguin warfare. With the release of Woton’s post “Violentalleta – An Elite Family Insider Aspirant“, he insists that we should ignore the Purple Republic, forget that they ever existed, and continue to use armies the way we have been going about them for a long time now. But for me, and I’m hoping for a lot of people, my viewpoint on this is quite different.
To those of you that want us to ignore Purple Republic, pretend that they don’t exist, when has that ever worked? Did it work when armies tried to ignore the ACP? No. Would it work if armies tried to ignore CPAC itself? No. So why ignore Purple Republic? My point, the whole basis of this post, is this: why the heck shouldn’t we fight them? Take this into consideration:
- As much as you want to believe it is true, I doubt any Purple Republic members can hack, or will hack. Violentalleta does not strike me as a person who would order a hacking. I don’t believe he wants to dominate Club Penguin using an underhanded, dirty move such as hacking. If you ignore the Purple Republic, expect to be hacked.
- They are not, in any way, shape, or form, a bot army. If you have seen the PR in action and still believe this, you are incredibly stupid. The 837 members they have on Steam as of 12:09 PM, EDT speaks for itself.
- Not fighting them would be going against some of the very phrases you armies pride yourselves on. Is ACP protecting Club Penguin by ignoring the Purple Republic? Is the UMA “Fighting the Bad” by ignoring them?
- You all spend your time pointlessly fighting each other, hoping to get CPAC’s number one army spot. Violentalleta has already pointed this out, I believe. But for once, somebody has decided they want to TAKE OVER Club Penguin, the game and place that you all claim to protect. Would you rather fight for a stupid spot on a list, or fight for the ownership of the entire game you base yourself on? Do you want to be remembered as the armies that stood by and watched as a purple wave spread over Club Penguin and overtook it, or do you want to be remembered as the armies that stood up against the Purple Republic and fought, doing everything they can to hold them back?
- Ignoring them can’t and won’t solve anything. The PR will show up to any event any army has, and there’s little you can do to prevent them from knowing the time and location of your events.
I speak now, as a former ACP second in command, and someone who wants what he thinks is right for armies of all sizes, not just to the soldiers and leaders of ACP, but to all armies. I am telling you this: we need a plan of action. Ignoring them will do you no good. Do you want more of this? http://rpfarmy.com/ This is what will happen if you continue to ignore the Purple Republic and pretend they don’t exist. If we fight them, I doubt you will be hacked. Anyone who is smart should realize this. The Pink Alliance, while somewhat effective, was hastily formed and poorly organized. If you ask me, all of the smart people out here need to hold a meeting and decide on a real plan of action. A real alliance. Armies fighting the Purple Republic by themselves will not do us any good either. We need, for once, to coexist, to fight, as one. Ignoring them will do no good, mark my words. Fight, and let your voices be heard. If anyone agrees with me, you can usually find me on ACP chat when I am on. If you, too, recognize that we need to fight the PR and have the power to do something about it, we need a real plan. Honestly, why not?
