Howdy!
You know me for, umm… “speaking out” about issues I find and the people involved with them. Since (for me) January is the month of reflection, I’d like to look back at all the people and the conflicts they caused and how they affected me.
Where to start…
Ah, Graser 10! Ol’ pal of mine. Lets see. I’ve known you and talked to since you first joined the Internet fiasco. We were friends. Good friends, to say the least. We got along and had fun on Club Penguin and on our blogs. Then it started to happen.
With my CPPD blog, I made a neat little tagline for it. “Stopping crime, one fool at a time!”. Now, soon after, what was your site’s tagline? “The news guy, one post at a time!” This is just a small, unimportant thing isn’t it? That’s what I thought.
But we resolved it after I finally coaxed hime to change it. And everything was fine. Up until summer. Holagurrl25’s Pixel Penguin business was doing so well, I thought’d be a fun way to get hits and give my readers something to do. I had one of the best non-homemade P.P. businesses around.
Why? I made each little detail PERFECT.
I had a very organized catalog and clean ordering system. That is of course, what Graser 10 thought. He copied the page almost word-for-word without asking. Obviously P.P. isn’t mine, but I knew just by looking at his page he copied me. Since I was an admin on his site I went ahead and gave myself credit since he wouldn’t do it himself.
He kept taking the credit off until I and some other people convinced him to give me credit. He did, in the most egotistic way. So after all that happened everything was cool again. Graser 10 and I were friends and there was no problem. At least, for awhile.
I soon realized what amount of MY LIFE was being wasted continuously posting the news every Friday. But I still wanted to have a Club Penguin blog. So I came up with a cool “Homepage” idea, which was essentially just a post laying out the rest of the site.
Then came Graser 10. I guess he liked the idea too, because without asking and without consenthe copied the “Homepage” post almost word-for-word, changing things to match his site. After threats to report him to WordPress, he got rid of it.
At this point, I’m a just a little bit pissed off.
That’s about the point where our “friendship” dwindled. The real deal was when I was inclined by myself and Dunya13 to end my Club Penguin blog for good. I did, and it felt great. I changed the title from “Cppd Officer’s House of French Toast” to “Alex’s House of French Toast” and it was a fresh start for me.
Then Graser 10 started criticizing ME for changing my site. And that’s when his true colors were shown. I knew he would always be obsessed with this simple childish game. He would never grow up. Ever since we met he was always grumbling for one thing: popularity. To be crowded by hords of strangers on a video game. Pa-thetic.
Then, of course, he copied my Piczo and now he’s the dipshit he is today. I was hoping none of his worthlessness would rub off on Graser3 but I guess it did. Which is disappointing ’cause I thought he was a nice guy.

Who’da thought I would lose another friend over my beliefs? One of my best friends, Cpd Officer. Now, Cpd is an overall nice guy. He never actually did anything to hurt me. It’s how blinded he is.
I think anyone who looks for romance over a penguin game designed for little kids is desperate.
But it all came down to Bluzzzy. I use to be in the center of the “Cpd & Bluzzzy” clique. I knew them both well and I didn’t care they were “dating”– it did eat at my though. It ate at me enough to say…
“Fuck ‘em.”
I couldn’t end a friendship with someone I’ve known since November ‘06 that easily however. But it kept coming back to slap me in the face. I couldn’t help it.
Well, today, I don’t hate Cpd. I hate Bluzzzy. Not because she is an online relationship or being a jackass to people. It’s because she “ruined North Pole, the greatest server in the game”. I bring this up all the time, and only a handful of people listen.
North Pole is the most popular server in Canada. I don’t know why it was never like the other popular servers. It was never overcrowded. There were no hackers. There were no spammers or harassers. It was quiet yet energetic.
That’s not how you’ll find North Pole anymore though. Thanks to Bluzzzy and Cpd it IS crowded. And with crowds come problems. These crowds have ruined this server. I have pictures if you ever want proof. And if you’re a nonmember, don’t ever dream of getting into N.P.
The only way N.P. will get returned to its calm self is if Bluzzzy
(and her flock of sheep, including Cpd) leave and go to another problem server. But they never will. They rather dance in the Town — doing nothing; accomplishing nothing; doing no hard work whatsoever — because it’s just easier for them.
And North Pole will always be crowded and divided by those who hate Bluzzzy, and those who worship Bluzzzy. Damn, bummer.

So in short, I’ve learned one thing from these two conflicts. People want power. They’ll do anything for it. Ignore their friends, treat the people around them like dirt.
And once they have power they become detached from the real world and forget about those who once cared for them. Pity.
See ya’ tommorow!

Alex aka Cppd Officer
