nao vejo motivo pra escrever em inglês já que tudo que vou dizer vai ser só pra quem me conheceu e foi meu amigo:
valeu.
eu cresci com vocês, com esses jogos. Foram partes cruciais do fim da minha infância e da minha adolescência, definitivamente não seria a mesma pessoa de hoje sem o pessoal que eu joguei por muito tempo. Tomamos caminhos diferentes, mas todos vocês são parte da minha vida, principalmente o Victor, Loeco, Zpheal/Hour, Freddy, e esse povo aí.
Foram anos divertidos e anos que eu realmente fui muito feliz mesmo com tantos problemas.
Eu adoro vocês, e por mais que eu não jogue, ver que tudo isso vai acabar me deixa meio triste.

beijao

I met some of my best friends in here, and I'm very grateful for that

Truly had a great time in here, I could never forget this awesome community and those lots of fun I've experienced

Thank you for everything, Damen

Keep going!

It’s been a true pleasure to be a part of this community for such a long time, I have seen and accomplished so much within this community. This community will always have a special place in my heart, and I will never forget about it, or the countless memories made!

I have made lifelong friendships because of this community; and I couldn’t be more thankful. Thank you, Damen, and everyone of that matter for making the DSGHQ memorable!

Please keep this discussion pinned
Dear friends and players of DSGHQ,
After nearly 10 long and lovely years of DSGHQ- especially OldCP, Snaildom and Penguin3D, the time has come to end the DSGHQ.
Reveal Spoiler
User counts have dropped, and although we all love the games, we are all growing up and can't spend enough time playing them anymore. Rather than log in to empty game constantly feeling sad, lets give it the send off it deserves!
Forums Closing Down On 10TH Anniversary (August 31st 2023)
These forums will go into archive mode, where you will still be able to view content but no new content can be made.
I will do a livestream on this day (date and time likely 5 PM EST August 31st) on my YouTube channel https://www.youtube.com/DamenSpikeGamesHQ which will be the last livestream
Penguin3D Closing Down On 5TH Anniversary (October 8th 2023)
Penguin3D game servers will go offline. However, if people want it enough, I will keep one server online for one day a week and CZ can continue on that day only. Otherwise it will go off completely.
OldCP
OldCP will not shut down at all because of my promise that I made years ago: to never shut OldCP down.
Discord servers
All the discord servers will shut down apart from OldCP's. A new simpler P3D discord will be made, but only if we keep the game online for 1 day a week.
This might be the end of the community as we know it, but the community will never truly end. The memories will go on forever, especially in my heart.
Reveal Spoiler
Future of Damen
- I am still making new games. I am working on a new game right now, and will release it on a separate website.
- I will likely call my new game community Spike Games.
- The game I am making however is nothing like penguin3d or oldcp, its a cycling game. (Hey stop yawning!)
- I just like making games that I would want to play, and because this kind of game doesn't exist yet, I'm making it!
Thank you
I am undyingly grateful and honored to have had you play my games, and that it has made a lasting impact on your lives, one that I hope will be with you forever.
I am the luckiest CPPS pirate out there, because it meant I met you.
This is sad, i've been playing this game for 2 years, almost 3. although it's kind of a short time, a lot of stuff had happend, and i got to make a bunch of new friends. I'll miss u and my friends, and i hope you'll be doing amazing in the future :)

I never thought this day would come and coming from me I've been in the community since I was a little kid, that hyper kid I once was... was a menace in the community once despised by you but eventually after cooking up so much trouble in the community, you offered me a chance to return and fix my behaviour and mend my ways and I thank you for that. As a community we've created so many memories together and you've watched us all grow up, back in the days we were all little children and You and Chelsey were literally the adults along with other people like Wheeler etc.

Time just flies too quick... not getting any younger, always gonna be getting older I'll be turning 21 too in a week and 5 days

Your games made my childhood better, because they were an escape for me growing up as a child because my childhood was taken from me due to things going on in my household but coming online to your games after school was always a thrill for me.

Thank you for everything you have done for us especially for all you've done for me and I don't know how I can repay you for that you've done for me all these years. Keep in touch if you still wish to, I'd like that very much, you know where to find me whenever you want to talk.

Made some true friends on here, such as Flame, Bag, Dan (ito), Rouge and many more that are not around. I never thought this day would arrive I mean I have been in the community for 3 years and I would have liked to spend more time with the DSGHQ community since I feel I didn't really feel like someone "remarkable" in this one. Thank you for all of those days full of fun, making this community mark my childhood and adolescence for the eternity (also because thanks to this game I learned very much about English expressions and grammar). You are a part of my heart.

felt like yesterday that i was rushing home from primary school to log onto oldcp to talk w friends - honest, those were the happiest moments of my life so thank u damen

i have become friends with the coolest people because of this site - friends that are in different timezones, countries, that speak different languages etc. and the fact that i still talk to people from here to this day is CRAZY.

especially through covid, i remember going on oldcp messing about with friends on there and being a genuine source of entertainment after months of being locked away from irl friends and school (even p3d i only was active last year ish and it was really fun LOL)
so many good memories on here, i still remember the thrill of receiving 'master' rank on here for the first time, wanting to get my reputation to at least 1k, trying to get all the badges on here to look cool. i was apart of this community for nearly 10 years it really doesnt feel like 10 years, safe to say if i ever see anything penguin or shrek related in real life my mind will always associate this community to it LOL cant wait to tell my kids about how i would roleplay as a reindeer on a pirated club penguin site


it genuinely is so strange to think of how just one site and community has impacted my life so much, i met some of the coolest people i know on this site and have learned sooooooo much from everyone and everything on here. i always think of how my life would have turned out if i hadn't stumbled upon oldcp and met the people i have (prob a lot more depressing than it already is). its nice to know that even if i never spoke to some people on here we all were apart of the same community and i hope everyone in this small community succeeds in everything that they do in the future :D

shout out to zin jake01fromoldcp baffed tommo trixie grounder teig arona gamer boppy28 nunca trolencio my son ayancito ollo frame hashtag love 4 my homies even if we dont speak i am still so grateful to have had conversations with you :')


GOODBYE DSGHQ

Damnnnnnnn

It's been quite the journey, but we really do need to move on and close this chapter of our lives - we should be happy it happened though, cos I wouldn't have met some of my most closest friends if it wasn't for this community.

Time really does fly, I still remember rushing out of bed in like year 5 and hopping on oldcp and then spending my evenings creating THE BEST NEWSPAPER EVER THE POOKIE STANDARD

anyways best of luck to everyone, cant wait to see us go big and have nardwar reference the dsghq when he interviews us at some stage loool

(Come to pwc and lets make a dsghq community)

I am thankful for everything you done Damen, I had so much fan being apart of the community and really enjoyed playing OLDCP & P3D during the end of my childhood, but anything comes to an end.


Goodbye DSGHQ.

I've met a lot of long term friends on this community so it stings a lot that it is closing soon enough. But that's how life is. Thank you for the years. I was 10 when this forums was first made and now I'm 20. Crazy how life flies
