A Journey Through the Years: A Thank You Post

I don't know how to start this post. I first joined Club Penguin armies in 2020, shortly later gaining the want to leave a mark in the community by having an army. I was first recruited into the Ice Warriors. I started talking there a lot and ranked up to Staff in Training in late 2020 and then moved to SWAT. I then had to rank up all the way again and got SiT in early 2021, being there until August of 2022 when I left from the 3ic position. I then joined back IW for Head General (the max troop rank) to shortly get SiT a few weeks later. I ranked up there to 5ic and then left in March of 2023. I've been primarily focused on Friendly Gamers since them to build a striving community. In this post it's only right that I thank everyone who's supported me for the past 3 years inside armies. I don't know how long I'll extend this post of all of the people I know, since there is a lot.


 

IceQueen1020,

I've known you for over 3 and a half years at this point it's good to think about how far we've come. I remember when you were just a staff member in IW, and now you're retired. You've helped me through my highs and lows and are my most trusted friend from CPA. Thank you for everything, through my CPA journey and for being one of my best friends.


Kattle11,

I've also known you for some years. I remember when you were a leader in Golden Troops which shut down shortly after. You almost were one of FGs leader upon revival, but things did get in the way. I hope you do good in college, and I hope we continue talking bestie!


Sebzy,

I don't really remember when we first met, but I believe it was around the time when I made the Trick or Treat bot for IW last year. We were co-staff members for a while. When I left, we continued talking and never really stopped. Glad to have you as one of my closest friends, especially when we have those deep bro convos on the rare occasion.


Ganger90,

I don't really have much to say but you taught me your recruiting secrets from when I was in SWAT and I've been using them ever since, editing them for perfection. You also taught me some essential skills to armies like the general concepts leading. For that I am forever grateful, and you have my eternal respect.


Pranav,

We first met in the Ice Warriors, like half-most of the people on this list, but I remember when you used to give me lectures about life when I told you basically how shy I used to be. The truth is, I'm still like that to this day but I am definitely a lot more confident than I was three years ago.


Calgo & AustinFraud,

Thank you both for all of the fun memories. I know I haven't known both of you since ACP became allies with FG, but it was so fun talking to you guys and having that battle. I can't wait for what the future may bring for us even though we aren't doing CPAB anymore.


Xing,

When I left SWAT last August, you helped me 'get them back' in a sense. I remember that 3-hour long VC like it was yesterday. I went to school that day completely sleep deprived because it ended at like 4 in the morning. You have my respect for standing up with me against SWAT.


Josh,

Thank you for all of the fun times we had together. I know you've certainly had bumps along the way. I miss when I stayed up until 3 in the morning playing Fortnite and Fall Guys together. Love ya bro, hope you're doing much better now.


Iceyfeet1234,

Wow, it's been a real one. I remember the day I joined IW and since then my life has changed by entering the world of armies. For the better, I don't know. But for the fun, it's really been a long road. Is this where my CPA road ends? Or is there more in store in the future? These are the questions I have been actively asking myself over the past week because of all of the memories I have made since 2020. It's not only a new chapter for Friendly Gamers, but for my life as a whole.


Frickle,

Who are you? Are you FG's crazy lady? You claim we met sometime between 2020-2021 but I can't remember that... I think you're making up LIES, big fat LIES. Anyways, our journey isn't over, but it certainly hasn't just begun either.


Elizabeth/Spotty,

I've seen you in and out of a lot of places, primarily being an admin in CPAHQ, which then merged into CPA. You're one of the most wholesome and nicest people I have ever met in Club Penguin Armies (the community as a whole, not the league) I hope to continue judging alongside you and all of the other judges for months to come.


DrQueen,

I remember seeing you as just a normal staff member in IW too. That feels like ages ago now, but it's really just been a really quick couple of years. We had a few ups and downs that I won't go into specifics about here. Alongside those, you were the first person that I have ever looked up to in my CPA career.


Actionspark,

It's been a minute as well brother. How've you been? It's crazy to believe that like Kattle, you were also going to lead FG when we opened, but life got in the way. Stuff did change and we managed to open FG, but it would've been better with an actual leadership team. Thank you for your work, and managing to secure ACP as an ally!


Mare,

Mommy mare!! We haven't talked nearly as much since you retired from SWAT. I want you to know that I've always looked up to you. I took every ounce of inspiration that I got from you and that is what fueled me for so long in this community. Thank you for everything that you have done for me, and I hope we can continue talking!


Coolguy,

King, we definitely have a history together. The earliest memories I have of us really talking was when I started writing a few articles for SWAT under your direction. Since then, you have left SWAT leadership and have been in ACP. I think that was definitely the right choice for you and I'm glad you're still in this community.


LawCorazon,

Do you have any dragons yet? I will make sure to adopt one for you if you don't. Anyways, I still miss seeing you as an IW leader. We talked a lot back then but since you retired, we've became more distant. You are one of the earliest figures that I have ever looked up to in this community and I'm glad we still talk to this day.


Qt Ben & Chek,

It's really been a while as well. I haven't really had the chance to say congratulations on becoming an IW leader, but I miss playing games with you guys from when I was in IW. We used to get those #1 Victory Royales and always win in fall guys, I wish we could do that again.


Chevy,

Refrigerator?


Lemonade1S,

It's my homie! I remember those days when FG had their first battle of our first generation against Clown Rebellion. Not gonna lie, still kind of salty that we lost 0-3 because we seemed to cover for the whole battle...


Legoman,

As much as I hate including you in this post, we have a past that has to be worth mentioning outside of the wrongdoings. You seemed like the coolest person in the IW staff team when you were first there. And for the truth that I haven't told anyone before, was that I just moved to SWAT because of how cool you seemed at the time. We used to play games together like among us and we used to VC at godly hours in the nights, those were some fun times.


Suation,

These were the first dms that have led to almost 5K messages since then. Glad to be friends with you and you've helped me when I needed it. Ignore the friend nickname! If you know you know!




Abaporu/Fitsuki, Lasso & Belga,

I'm speaking to all of EGCP for this, thank you for wanting to ally with us and helping us when needed. You helped FG when we needed it the most and I'm excited to see what we can do in the future!


Jo & Rooboo,

I'm going to piggyback off of the message above, I'm personally thanking all of HF for helping us and being such wonderful allies. You guys are all so nice and almost as friendly as us! Let's continue our alliance in the future by doing some fun stuff together. Also, what kind of message for Jo would it be without me saying tasty? This is pretty tasty then!


April,

Thank you for being here for me and basically being my CPA therapist. You've helped me through so many of my hardships and have been an excellent friend. You are one of my most trusted friends within the CPA Community.


The entire FG staff team,

Thank you for making Friendly Gamers such a wonderful place to be in, I couldn't be here today without the dedication that you all have. YOU are the people who have shaped FG to what it is today. We can grow, and we can improve, so let's see what the future brings in this new chapter!


 

Wow, what a trip down memory lane for me. I haven't talked to some of these individuals for a long while now and I've explored some memories that I thought were forgotten. Thank you everyone for being here for me throughout my entire CPA journey.


This is Jakob, hopefully not returning to CPA & Making FG live on...
