Criticism: Get Over It

[Chaolin]

For the past few months, I have observed the Club Penguin General Game Sub-Forum and I have noticed a lot of threads based on criticism of a certain item/update. Normally I wouldn't mind criticism as it helps correct mistakes and is usually intended to make the criticized item better. However, the ammount of criticism the General Game has seen is rediculous.

For example: http://penguinforum.miniclip.com/showthread.php?t=24734

The jokes Club Penguin posts in the newspaper are all submitted by children between the age of 5-12. Give them a break! I'm sure every one of you have laughed at a dumb joke in your youth.

Club Penguin isn't the only getting criticism either, the members are getting their share to? Why is this? Just because some punk kid didn't add you as their buddy on Club Penguin you think all of us members are jerks? I don't know anyone on this forum that would not add you because you were a non member. So don't post your concerns on non member respect here, we all respect non members.

My conclusion: Lay off the criticism everyone! It's like a slap in the face to Club Penguin Staff. I get the feeling that they will stop listening to our ideas if this criticism continues.

Yes, they don't realize how hard it is to make a game that thousands and thousands play.
Once they complain about something, they just want it more and more. But, it might take the CP Staff months to make a single new room or whatever.

It's sad, that thread.
It probably took CP months to make the safe chat, again, complaining does nothing.

I really hope that some people's eyes open from this thread, because, it is rediculous.

thats what people do not look at! i mean, if you get to have a copy of clubpenguin, and examine all those frames and stuff, i guess you would stay speechless! what's more?! it's in flash! yes! in flash! .swf!

even just an animation can take months, lets think of something like that! frames and stuff and things and mini-games and igloos and everthing!

its crazy to manage such files! :|

yeah, at first you would stay and say, wth?

then after a while, you'd crack up! lol

[tiki101]

its annoying when everybody complains. i kind of like most updates and appreciate what cp has done.
if you think cp is doing so bad why dont you people who are criticizing it run it instead eh?
you wouldnt criticise it then.
yeah it does take ages to make up animations but that isnt club penguins fault
and whats with this member deal. if some of you are that bothered become a member yourself. also most people on this forum are nice and would add you, non memebr or member.

You guys haven't understood the "Stupid Jokes" thread properly. Yes the title is misleading but it explains that Club Penguin are putting jokes in the newspaper which are from Club Penguin's own jokes (eg: What do you call a fish with no eyes: FSH or How does a penguin build it's house: Igloos it together). Club Penguin clearly states 'Submit original jokes, riddles, poems' in every newspaper and they actually put on their own jokes? It's very easy to select about 12 jokes and it's even more easier to select ones which aren't from CP's jokes.

I also don't see how CP manages to get all jokes with the write grammar and spelling but still have their own jokes on there.

That's not the only thread... Try these:

All of those are examples of pointless criticism.

Yeah people do complain about something little in a game.

[Oceanside344]

I agree with most of wht you said. the part about the members not accepting buddy requests is not always the case. I say no to almost any random buddy request. Unless thye actually tak to me or I know them, I don't accept or add random buddy requests. I've laughed at some of those jokes, they aren't all completely stupid.

i like the pig with the screan in the secret mission
screen hog that was kinda funny

Chaolin, this thread doesn't help at all. Get over it :P

[1nvaderzim]

Wow, does no one see the hypocrisy in this thread?
Complaining/Criticizing...about people complaining/Criticizing.
I'm SURE this board will stop people from Criticizing.

It sure helped more than your post. I'm not criticizing either, I'm suggesting.

[shortkid7t9]

Wow, this is exactly what Im sayin, not about the jokes but about the non-memebr part. I am speechless you took the words right out of my mouth!

[kappinsam]

non members think we don't respect them!!!??! thats so not true the only reason I dont add a lot of non members is because they ask to be your buddy at random.
