Club Penguin Domain Name Expired?!
Okay, I know all of you have been having this same problem, so I just wanted to inform everyone what it’s about. When you go to clubpenguin.com , you’ll see this creepy looking clown staring right back at you: 
If you look on the right of the page, you’ll see some information… Club Penguin’s domain name expired on June 13, 2011. Do you know what that means? They forgot to pay for renewal. Being Disney and all, I never thought this could happen! The site could be down for even a few days. What does this mean? Will we lose our memberships? Our items? What will happen to the Music Jam? Find out next time on…

Darn it, just imagine if someone or maybe even me bought out the domain name when it was expired (you know people can do that) then once it was bought out Disney would pay millions or billions to the new owner just to get the URL back. LOL WOW! And there would be no problem with it either, Disney is like GAZILLIONAIRES. lol someone could have gotten rich because of this. How hilarious. Tragic move by Disney on this one, kinda irresponsible too. Wow, how could this get by.

You’re right, Chilli. The thing I hate about CP is they never take the blame. They said it was due to “technical glitches”. Yeah right, they just got lazy and forgot to pay for the domain name!

IT DIDN’T EXPIRE! THEY DIDN’T FORGET!
If you notice, it said at the bottom expires 6/13 2012!!!!!
Thekoolman3 noticed this and came up withe idea (I tiotally agree with him) that they UPDATED the system!!!!

@jon doe: Actually, it did expire. Yes, I did notice that! We found this problem seven days after it expired. That means it did expire (and they gave them one week to buy it back), and they probably did forget. How could they update the system if it had expired?

“We found this problem seven days after it expired”
might I remind you, it was 1 YEAR – 7 DAYS BEFORE IT EXPIRED = 6/20/2.0.1.1. SINCE IT EXPIRED 6/20/12!!!

Please don’t start an argument- but this was found on geek.com: “The domain name expired on June 13th, but the site finally vanished on the morning of the 20th.” It did not say that it expired in 2012, it expired in 2011.

Hmm… Well, whatever it was, I think it was a mistake made by the employees. Lots of them got fired :S

Hey guys I found the answer to why this happened: Club Penguin saw and renewed their domain name almost as soon as it expired. (And yes they did forget :-/) However, it took some time to be visible to everyone.
