CLUB PENGUIN HISTORY
Club Penguin was not always named “Club penguin”, and was not always like club penguin. The game we play right now has left a BIG history behind it.Until club penguin launched on October 24, 2005, there was expiremental pengs, that lasted for some months only. and started in 2000. We better skip penguin chat 1 and 2, since no one knows nothing about them.
Had you ever got at rocketsnail.com? It closed sometime during summer 2007. No, you couldnt play that penguin chat until summer. But you could play it at this site. Then they deleted penguin chat but they keeped the site. There you could play some cp games, for example, ballistic biscuit (Sorry I mean hydro-hopper), but you didnt have a penguin, there was a human! Rocketsnail closed from Summer 2007 to March 2009, when it opened again. But now there are no games on it
First of all, this was the penguin chat 3 homepage:
The whole game there was free and there was only one room: The town with its buildings. Here are its differences from club penguin:
-
The town: In penguin chat 3, in the town was snowing.
-
Gift shop: There was no gift shop. When you were going to get in, you got to the page with the real-money shopping.
-
Dance club: No big differences. The band was always playing and it looked a lot like a drawing.
-
Boiler room: Everything was black and the boiler room was small.
-
Coffe shop: Same
General differences: The chat bar was smaller and there were les emoticons.
The major differences of penguin chat with club penguin were two. The first one is that instead of secret agent, you could be a ninja. While you were creating an account, you should click on “N” at the word penguin. The ninja’s dance was being invisible. The other difference were the snowcats: Yes, you could drive venchicles in penguin chat 3!!

I think this old version of club penguin was really fun. And, the biggest thing, there was no fame.
We are lucky old penguins keeped pictures from penguin chat 3 so they could show them to us in the future!
How penguin chat became cp…
One day Rocketsnail announced that they were creating a new game: Club penguin.
Everyone disagreed, like everyone does when something new happens.
Finally, Club penguin was ready for beta testing. Beta testers were only testing the game, and in the end they received an 1-month free membership and the rarest cp item: The beta tester hat!
Then club penguin was updated and updated and updated and became how its now.

Extras:
Ninjas:
Ninja
A ninja from Penguin Chat 3
Ninjas are a very secret aspect of Club Penguin. When you click the N on the main page of www.ClubPenguin.com (on the picture of the Dance Club), the big penguin will put on a Ninja costume. But the “Ninja Mask” may just be the superhero mask. Ninjas outrank Secret Agents; this may be because only moderators can be a Ninja, but we can’t be sure. Many sources say that Ninjas have access to the “Ninja Hideout,” as Secret Agents have access to the Spy Headquarters. Ninjas were actually a playable character in Penguin Chat 3, an old version of Club Penguin. There was once a rumour that stated that you could become a Ninja if you went to the Dojo and stood still for 30 minutes, but this rumour is proven UNKNOWN. This rumour was created by “Sanity Penguin“, a notorious hacker who invented the CP Trainer of EVIL!. You can pretend to be a ninja, simply by turning your penguin black and then pretend!. Various people hack Club Penguin to attempt and get Ninja suits!.
Evidence1. Billybob confirms there are ninjas planned for Club Penguin in an official blog post’s comments. This was during beta testing of CP. 2. In old Official Blog archives, they refer to the Dojo as “the Japanese room.” Japan? Ninjas? Anyone see a connection? 3. If you click the N in nightclub on CP’s homepage, the big blue penguin turns into a ninja. 4. When Jet Pack Adventure was launched, there was an official blog post showing Billybob on the launch pad. He was a darker black than the usual black color. 5. You can dress like a ninja by using CP trainer. But CP trainer takes all the clothing off Club Penguin server. That means that there is ninja clothing on the server, (which means it was created by the moderators and does exist) you simply can’t access it through the catalog.
This is a ninja screenshot from YouTube. Someone has hacked the ninja using the CP Trainer. of EVIL!.
The 3rd ninja picture could be proof that ninjas really exist.
Sometime on 2008, ninjas returned to club penguin. You can now be one by obtaining a black belt and defeat SENSEI on the card- jitsu game.

i examined the cp chat 3 ninja and it had a SAMURI SWORD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!AWWWWSSSOOOMMMEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yo bella NOT COOL those ninja dudes with swords are bad. they hack club penguin they try to make people sad too! im a puffle specialist by the way. those guys tryed that old rumor about standing in the dojo for 30 minutes. sorry owner of web site but those guys created that glitch. a guy in that penguin chat 3 thing decided to sleep while he was in the dojo. then when he woke up. he saw that he was a ninja so he told alot of penguins about what happened. they all formed a group. it was called the ninja possie. thay had that group to this day. they still have the sword to show there a threat to penguins. they went to a website hacking website and the leader told his group to use that skill to get what they wanted from club penguin. if you see a penguin named ninja JUST NINJA with no numbers. also all capital letters report him because hes the leader of the group. thats what he didnt tell you
