I love the incredible lag in these videos πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

I agree though, we need to bring more content here about OldCP, perhaps some tutorials/beginners guides for commands, explaining the Empire & ranks, etc. I will do my best to post some helpful tutorials to help out.

I can't wait to see the rise of the Light Troops again!! I had a lot of funny in the army 😁

There's already an "OldCP trailer" video in the works, hopefully we can make a tutorial video as well. Since people have short attention spans these days its better to put all this stuff in video format.

Also the Light Troops are currently deceased unfortunately, perhaps some brave user can revive them someday lol.

no thanks sorry cp armies are way too toxic and these communities should not intermix at all lol

why not just use the army server or whatever it is? i think it would prove more beneficial than attempting on a dead game. this sounds really rude and i'm really sorry but i personally have had awful experiences within the CP army community and I would rather not see our community become ravaged with those sorts of people.

please for the love of all things if you're going to do this then at the very least keep templars and doritos far, far away from this community.

If you've been active on the discord you would see that people have been dying for the community to become active again, and now we have a solution. If you're going to speak upon "toxicity" you cannot forget to acknowledge the fact that OldCP has had its fair share of toxic eras as well. You should not let a few misbehaved individuals represent an ENTIRE community. We will obviously filter and vet out the users as they join, SecurityGuy does an amazing job at keeping the tomfoolery to the minimum and I will 100% back him in his efforts to keep it that way and I'm sure the current staff members will be on board as well.

You make a good point regarding the discord server. I admit I am only in the P3D server and have not seen much in terms of a desire for oldcp activity. And I'm sure you would be keeping a count on who joins. I just don't personally believe this is a good decision because the idea of armies is to gain influence and notoriety and that would be nearly impossible here.

I speak on toxicity because almost every army I have been a part of or have witnessed have had negatives that have drowned out the positives for me, LT included. I have yet to see a truly good member of a CP army that isn't 1) clouded by bias 2) led by rash decisions or 3) easily influenced by others. While I am still relatively new to armies [2017] and have not interacted with any in almost a month, I still have seen quite a few things that make me hesitate on allowing them access to this community. Mainly regarding pedophilia, racism, sexism, doxxing and inappropriate intimate remarks.

However, I'm willing to watch how it plays out and I'm sure you'd do a fine job at handling any potential situations that arise.

I tried this a year ago and it didn't work. I was in armies starting from 2012, I don't feel as if the current state of armies has changed at all. all the toxicity is usually behind closed doors, and if you invest yourself into the community, that's when you'll begin to see it.

anyways, I'm pretty sure there's already a private CPPS for armies. I think it'd be best for y'all to stick there and not mingle with this community, since both of them are toxic as is.

This is great! really hoping people give it a chance and not overlook how this can potentially revive the game. Us admins will not allow any toxicity or disrespect, so I hope users don’t worry as we won’t let that happen.

Keep in mind that communities change and evolve over years, its highly unfair to criticize a community in present tense based off an opinion you've formed on them about things that happened in the PAST. Many of those "toxic users" you speak of have been ousted out of the CPA community just like certain toxic users have been booted from OldCP/DSGHQ. The solution for preventing anything negative happening is having a proper staff and from the looks of it SecurityGuy and his team seem to be a solid group of individuals that should be more than willing to guide the direction of the boost in users. We've got amazing leaders/representatives and chaperones on both sides here in SecurityGuy for OldCP and myself for CP Armies. Once again, thank you for your opinion however please be aware of how pessimistic you sound.

All new and existing players must abide by the community values and rules- treating other players how you'd want to be treated, clean language and respect.

Lets not pair up every person in the Epic Club Penguin Gaming Army Corps community as toxic because there was a couple toxic people.

A lot of the things people are listing that are negative in the cpps army groups are the same exact problems we have here.

And these problems are still here despite being YEARS since the first instances of them popping up..

Though I do understand the point of toxic people coming, no matter how people revive OldCP there's always going to be toxic people.

Plus DSGHQ does have a lot of admins and mods for such a small playerbase, so the problem of rule-breakers coming on shouldn't be too bad as long as people do their jobs.


The main problem? Them not being used to OldCP. With how weird the game is I believe there will be more questions than drama, a lot more.

A tutorial was mentioned in this thread and I think that is necessary. Nobody is going to tinker around enough to find out how /newcp or gold works without help from another person. And then there's the Empire, weapons, cz, etc...

edit: I would also like to mention that maybe more players on OldCP, would mean more players to the rest of the DSGHQ games since players could eventually get curious and try out the other things we have here. Although this depends on how many players come to OldCP

Own a musket for home defense, since that's what the founding fathers intended. Four ruffians break into my house. "What the devil?" As I grab my powdered wig and Kentucky rifle. Blow a golf ball sized hole through the first man, he's dead on the spot. Draw my pistol on the second man, miss him entirely because it's smoothbore and nails the neighbors dog. I have to resort to the cannon mounted at the top of the stairs loaded with grape shot, "Tally ho lads" the grape shot shreds two men in the blast, the sound and extra shrapnel set off car alarms. Fix bayonet and charge the last terrified rapscallion. He Bleeds out waiting on the police to arrive since triangular bayonet wounds are impossible to stitch up. Just as the founding fathers intended.
