WHY THE PENGUIN WATCH SHOULD STAY
•
20th October 2019, 06:10 PM
Hello all,
Today Damen announced that he will be disbanding the Penguin Watch on 01/01/2020. As he said this, a shock of disbelief immediately struck through me. In all my time on oldcp, the Penguin Watch has been a very major part of the community. I have given this decision much thought, and I have decided to come here and share my personal opinions on this disbanding. I understand that Damen has made the choice, and for good reason. Although I would like to share my thoughts on the matter. If you'd like, feel free to share yours as well. I'm not saying that I'm 100% right but I've got an opinion on the matter. Please don't come after me yall.
When I joined this game in late 2015, everyone wanted to be Moderator. It was by far the most sought after rank, and many many MANY people sought after acquiring it. I was one of those noobs who wanted to do everything possible to get mod. It was my dream. I spent hours and days and months and YEARS trying to achieve this role. Now, I'm not here trying to whine about being a poor little penguin who never got what she wanted. I truly wasn't the best person back then, and probably wouldn't have made the greatest moderator. Although, every single time I asked someone how I can improve or have a better chance at mod there was one consistent answer. Everyone always said, "If you really want to be mod, you have to take all the steps first. You should apply for Penguin Watch!"
Throughout those two years, I was actively playing this game daily. I had my highs and lows, and watched so many people go from being a brand new user til they were a moderator. What was one of the major steps? Penguin Watch. Especially Penguin Watch Captain. Nearly every single person that was PWC became Moderator, which was the biggest deal ever. After all, it included being a Mod right? Instant popularity back then. Eventually, the role of Mod became way too much for lots of people. It was a very demanding job, and you received a lot of hate as a moderator. So what did those Mods immediately want to do? Become PWC if possible. There seemed to be nothing more exciting than leading a group of underdogs who are reaching to become better. Being a Penguin Watch Member you were taking those first steps to greatness on your oldcp journey.
Now, I do see why Damen wants to disband the Penguin Watch. Maybe my passion for the Penguin Watch comes from it being my dream rank for the last three years. But I truly do believe we just need to reunlock the potential the Penguin Watch Brotherhood truly holds. Here is a list of potential changes I believe we could make to improve the watch:
1) New leaders!! Truly devoted users who are passionate about the watch and helping to improve users. We need active individuals who are very set on leading this group and consistently holding meetings and such. I can think of a few individuals who would be INCREDIBLE at reviving the watch.
2) Stricter activity rules for the Penguin Watch. Many have complained about the inactivity of not only the Penguin Watch Captains, but the Penguin Watch in general. Being a Penguin Watch is a great duty, even if you don't receive fame for it.
3) Bimonthly Penguin Watch review. The Penguin Watch Captains can evaluate each member of the watch twice a month and see if they are still meeting a certain list of criteria to make sure they are active, working well, and a variety of other things.
These are a few of my recommendations for the watch. I understand Damen's decision, but I truly believe that if we get great leaders and establish new guidelines for the watch it can truly be better than ever. I know this is a long post, as Damen once said, I am a very wordy person. If the watch should stay, which I believe it should, I would be more than happy to help the new Captains, even if i wasn't a captain myself.
Thank you for reading this whole thing if you did. Feel free to share you opinions or suggestions or whatever you want(maybe memes idk) down below. I never know how to end discussions so like......yeehaw?
Bye folks, Breee

As Sad as I am to see you go, I'm ecstatic for you to be able to go conquer new adventures and excel. I love you so much and I hope you do well in life! Check in on discord every once in a while!!! Love you forever, Aubree

Well, as I looked through everyone I thought was my friends shoutouts, I realized I'm not in any of their shoutouts.
So shout out to me for bein independent cuz I don't need no one!!
Jkjk, I mean no one really did include me but I don't really blame them oops...
OK MY 2018
It's been a huuuuge year for me with way more than i could have even imagined!! So let's start with the cliche shoutouts I guess cause I gotta be basic per usual.
JADE - my best best best best best friend in the world. It's crazy to think that we didn't meet til March cause I've never been closer to anyone. you've been there for me all the time through the yeehaws and the concussions....a lot of those... but I know you always have my back and I love you so so so much and someday I'm gonna show you the ocean and we will go see hippo campus and visit nara. I lov u ok pear
RACH - rachhh my go to this year. you were always there when I needed to talk and I love you so much doll!
LUSH - lushieee! so proud of you this year you've grown so much! you're always there for my late night rants that lead to very stupid decisions all the time but I love you so much hon!
KEE ur my fave and ilysm and idek what to say cause I can't put my love for u in words but please marry me
RILA - you always make me smile and feel so happy!!! whenever I'm down I know I can come to you for a smile! your happiness is such a gift to all around you. I'm happy I could help u out with that essay mwahahha. love uuuu
ok cringe. uh ok and now idk I just wanna talk about this year and what I learned:
-GET OUT OF THE COMFORT ZONE: terrifying. I know. but if I hadn't nothing would have happened this year. I wouldn't have won a national writing competition, been a lead in three shows, become a paid singer, be chosen as one of the best singers in seven states, be an interpreter, etc. It all came out of my shell.
-BE CREATIVE, BE UNIQUE, BE YOU: creativity is something beautiful that I discovered in my Spanish class. I know. Spanish. I learned to find pride in my work, and make it my own... which may or may not mean making every single assignment relate to one direction. Oops. Must have worked though because I'm fluent now and the school is paying to fly me to Europe...
-CHANGE. IS. OK.: the hardest. I hate change. So much. I've lost countless friends this year-to car crashes, plane crashes, themselves, relationships, cancer, etc. It's hard. But I've learned I can grow.remember the imprint they left and carry along.
too lazy to keep going but bye bye

Hello everyone! Ninjay here with another piano song. This one probably sounds rushed (It was) and it sounds kind of bad. But I hope you like it anyway. https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/101391006/ Thanks for reading.
I KNOW HOW TO PLAY THAT SONG TOO!
