Polo Field's 10,000 Followers Party

Polo Field came on Fjord to celebrate reaching 10,000 followers on Twitter! I'm so happy for him. Polo's my favorite moderator. Here are some pictures I took of the party. He went to a lot more igloos but I couldn't stay for long.

Field Friday 5/10/13

Last Friday Polo Field came on Club Penguin for Field Friday! It was fun seeing him again. He's my favorite moderator. Here are some of the pictures I took.

FYI Polo Field can't add anyone. His friends list is full! I think it's nice for him to go to people's igloos in order to help them get stamps and more likes.

Businesmoose Leaving Club Penguin

Businesmoose announced yesterday that he's leaving Club Penguin during early April to start new adventures. He started working for the team around the same time I started playing the game in 2007. Someone has to take his place as a blogger and the choices are Tour Guide, Ninja, Smulley, and Robo Bird. It would have been nice if Club Penguin had given us information about each of the moderators instead of having us vote for them based on something shallow like their name or outfit. Moose came on Fog for a goodbye party and I recorded some of it.

I thought I took more pictures but I can only find one...

I don't like Businesmoose that much but I'm still sad that he's leaving. I wish him the best of luck in his future adventures.

Will you miss Businesmoose?

Moderator Meetups

I was at last week's Field Friday and Spike Saturday. See if you can find me in the pictures.

Spike Saturday

Personally, I like Field Friday the best because Polo is my favorite moderator. I don't really care about Businesmoose or Spike Hike.

Famous Club Penguin Moderators Becoming Mascots

  According to Polo Field, moderators such as Spike Hike, Businesmoose, etc. will eventually become mascots. This is got to be the worst idea I have ever heard. Disney has been going some really dumb things but this just tops it all. The whole purpose of moderators logging on Club Penguin is to talk to players about the game and answer their questions. Now they will just be reduced to predetermined phrases that mean nothing. The only good thing about this is that you can get stamps for meeting them. I wonder if the actual mods will be controlling the mascots or someone else will.

Do you think famous moderators should become mascots?
