Hey everybody, this a quick but important post about how to keep up to date with ACP events.
Particularly in a war like this, you need to stay on top of upcoming events to make sure you are available at that time. It is important for both the army and for you because attending these battles will give you a much better chance of receiving a promotion.
ACP has 3 ways to get updates outside of its website and chat, and I want to make sure everyone knows about them.
1) The first is the email subscription button. It is located in the right sidebar about halfway down. Depending on if you are signed in or not, it will display as either a simple registration button, or it may prompt you to put in an email address (use one that you check regularly). This will send you an email whenever something new is posted on the ACP site. If you are not receiving the emails for some reason and you have a WordPress account, you can click here to make sure that it is set to “Instantly”.
2) Over the summer, I set up a Twitter account for ACP, with the name @ACPArmy. Although it hasn’t gotten much use so far, I am going to encourage the leaders (and possibly a few interested soldiers) to update it more frequently in order to provide battle reminders and updates on other events. You will also receive updates about important posts, so please make sure to follow that account if you have a Twitter. You can find the follow button and Twitter feed just a little bit below the email subscription in the right sidebar.
3) ACP also has a Facebook account, which has been running for a while and is on its way to 400 likes! The account can be viewed at http://facebook.com/ACPArmyofClubPenguin. The Facebook account receives updates directly from the Twitter account, so as long as you follow one of the two, you’re set! There is also a Facebook “Like” button right below the Twitter feed in the right sidebar.
One Final Note: The most important thing you do in this army is attend battles, but I know a lot of you like to spend time on chat as well. This is a not a bad thing, but if you think your parents might make you get off the computer at some point, or if you have homework to do, please do these things before you come online. We want to make sure you are attending the battles, because that is most important, so make sure you know when the next battle is at all times and plan your schedule so that you are free during that time.
Make sure to take advantage of these 3 ways of receiving updates, and hopefully they will help you become one of ACP’s most loyal and active soldiers!

No offense, not many people are going to follow twitter or facebook. They will probably be embarrassed if their friends saw. I certainly wont be following ACPtwitter or ACPfacebook due to these reasons. Good example, I know.
Boomer: I recognize that, and I wouldn’t expect you to but a lot of people do have CP Twitter accounts they use to follow other websites, it’s just an option that’s available. The email subscription is still the best option though.
Good point
boomer great post man but yea kingfunks brought up an interesting point, not a single one of my friends know i stillplay CP lol i think alot of ppl would side with me on that, but good ideas anyways man twitter will grow

Good suggestions Boomer. II keep updated. When I’m online, I’m in chat, the web site here, and often in CP recruiting or at the ready to log into a server at a moment’s notice. If I’m not at home, then I’ve got my phone to see the web site info. Looking forward to more great posts from you!
