Club Penguin’s Star Wars Takeover Trailer Dislikes Not From Penguins – They’re From Trolls

A lot of you have seen my post where I brought to attention the very large amount of dislikes on Club Penguin’s Star Wars Takeover Cinematic Trailer. While without a doubt some of the dislikes are from penguins who are not looking forward to the party, a large majority of those dislikes come from non Club Penguin players – they’re from adults. I suspected (and accidentally forgot to mention in the post because it slipped my mind) that most of the video’s dislikes originate from Star Wars fans who don’t play Club Penguin and are not fond of the idea. The video was posted to the official Star Wars Twitter account for example. Not just penguins follow Star Wars on Twitter, a wide variety of ages and video game players do.

While I had no way of truly knowing the source of the dislikes, Club Penguin does with their video statistics. Spike Hike shared a little bit of information about that with me to clear things up. He told me a majority of the video’s dislikes are originating from a website that is filled with trolls – those who like to mess with people. Trolling can have many different definitions, but it always comes down to messing with people, like you’re antagonising them. Some troll in a way similar to bullying while others like me just mess around with friends simply to have a few laughs, only messing with them because they’re okay with it. In this case however it was done to mess with Club Penguin.

With that cleared up, it looks like most penguins are looking forward to the party. Without a doubt though not everyone enjoys the takeovers and I’m sure Club Penguin is working to change things based on the community’s feedback. One thing this does not clear up is the deleted top comments, but nevertheless it puts the biggest issue to rest. I look forward to seeing more of the party and I can’t wait to check it out once it’s released later this month!

  2. That makes a LOT more sense. It’s kind of just annoying that people that aren’t even playing Club Penguin are disliking it. I mean, really?

  3. The only time I ever trolled someone was when I told them a fly landed on one of their last chips, so they dropped it. Then I yelled “TROLLED!” at them, and he got all confused. I also know a guy who was once having issues with someone, so he hacked the other guy’s site, deleted everything, and put the troll face on it. Anyway, I can understand why they’d all dislike it. Trolls are so annoying sometimes.

  4. I kind of thought so.
    I love Star Wars and most of my friends do too.
    One of my cousins says there are too many fights, but Star Wars is different.

  5. yeah ok but still im not going to enjoy the star wars takeover if only if it was in August or late this year ill be ok with it. but just not in July…

    • Yes, that’s where they are from. I did not mention the website’s name in my post because it is not a kid appropriate website. That’s why I removed the name of the website from your comment. I hope you don’t mind. :)

  6. Spike Hike literally distorted the image that the children of Club Penguin: a place where we have fun, now when I log in, no one speaks, Club Penguin may take less than three years before closing :(

    (i am not from troll ;) )

  7. Ok I am ok with the EPF takeovers but when I heard it was Star Wars I was like yeah no I’m with Star Wars but its like more for you boys out there or like older kids so I may not be at the party sorry CP

  8. Hmm I can understand why some non club penguin fans and more Star Wars fans dislike this. But now Disney has taken over Star Wars so now about those old star wars fans. They might not like the newer generation.
