PrivateCP is Now Closed

Hello,

Some shocking news coming out of PrivateCP. I have just confirmed that it is closing, and they have already taken down the website, and the web-client. They closed due to high server costs, and also because they were afraid of future legal threats by Disney. (they had not received any contact from Disney)

PrivateCP had a great run, they were the first private server to introduce custom items, backgrounds, pins, and even custom rooms, they had thousands of users too – it’s very disappointing to see sure an enthusiastic private server – go offline.

However, I heard that the owners may release the PrivateCP source code – with instructions on how to bring it online on your own server. This could mean that more people could recreate a similar version to PrivateCP. I’ll keep you posted if the Staff does, however decide to release the source.

So what’s left? Well, currently we have ClubPenguinV (web-client) and iCPPS. (download-client) However, I think in the coming months, a lot more private servers will be emerging.

  3. William says:

    A private server my cousin and I are creating is almost out.

  4. Mcmuffin says:

    You can give us the source code, and if I made my own server, I can invite you and your friends there :)

  5. Bocaj says:

    They use OpenCP Which can be downloaded at [snip].

    • Mcmuffin says:

      The codes don’t work. It can be better if the staff gives the source code and gives us instuctions on how to make a Private server to people who don’t know, and the era of Clubpenguin Private Servers can live forever…

      • Mcmuffin says:

        kthx, I have the codes now…

          I would like to point out OpenCP is Illegal as we (Penguin Safari the original CPPS that used OpenCP [and was made by the Penguin Safari owner]) made contact with Disney and we where demanded to remove the source!

          And PrivateCP only used the base of OpenCP!

          -Roman or whoever accept this post!

          -Waddle on, Patrick.

          • Mcmuffin says:

            If we actually made our own personal private servers, we should keep it to ourselves. Private servers will survive as long as it doesn’t get caught. Which is why is says “Private” server. Whether its illegal or not, it has to be kept hidden from the public

    Hello,
    My name is Jame. I heard people need help with the OpenCP code? Well, I can try and help.
    My friend Flappi, many of you will have known as the owner of Penguin Safari and Club Zobbies gave me these precise instructions.
    Setup a database in the config files.
    Then run the batch file.
    There is a notepad Install guide within it. Use that. You also need PHP and SQL. I would suggest getting XAMPP if you need this. If you want more help contact Flappi on Skype.

    Best Regards,
    Jame

    HELP! I can only log into ClubPenguinV with Eddybrek1999 (not my normal account) and not Eddyberk99 (my normal account!) Please help!!

  12. Eddybrek99 says:

    Nevermind, it worked. :)

  13. Mcmuffin says:

    Yeah, I have the source codes, everything, the one problem is that, are private servers free? That’s the only problem, is the PS free or not?

    • Rockinmike98 says:

      Yes They Are Just Use Visual Basic 6 Free Verison Google It

      • Patrick says:

        No, there very pricey! VERY….

        You need a VPS to host the server which cost lots and btw no you only use VB6 for the client noob :P

        • Rockinmike98 says:

          Yeah (censored) you

        • Mcmuffin says:

          ik, ik, the only time you can use private servers is when you have a job and work for it to get money. Or your parents will pay for it. I’m not saying you “need” to get a job to get money for VPS, but you need a job for your life. Work that will put food on your table, and comfort you life. I’m saying that private servers are not free, and you need to pay it to keep it running. You can make a private server or not, your choice

    Hey! Sorry that PrivateCP closed everyone.

    This is the real Flappi, I’m not an impersonator (contact me on skype: Flappi282 for proof that it’s me).

    Anyway, first off, right at the start PS had custom items. We ditched them because they caused lots of problems. The media server was slow, lots of features were missing, and much more errors.

  18. Patrick says:

    Dude, why would Flappi wan’t to help you?
    He made a promise to Lane Merrifield (co owner, owner of CP [AKA Billybob]) that he would never create a CP server again, also he promised not to load CP in Flash ever again.

    Since the experience I got from PenguinSafari and Disney’s reaction to it, I think its best not to develop a CPPS anymore, there almost pushed near the suing point!

  19. Yellowone106 says:

    PCP wasn’t the first to actually HAVE custom items! Penguin Plaza was!

  20. i casey says:
