Lebron's Rants : Club Penguin Times!

Hello everyone, and welcome to, "Lebron's Rants", in this weeks edition, I would like to talk about the Club Penguin Times. That's right. So we all know about the new design, right? Well today, Club Penguin Founder Billybob, or Lane Merrifield, came out publicly about the new design. This is what he had to say..

"Since we changed the look of the newspaper a few weeks ago, we've heard from some of you that you liked the old style better. Just wanted to let you know a bit about WHY we changed the newspaper... The old version of the newspaper was taking a LOT of the team's time to make every week. So we wanted to make a new version that would take less time to make, but still keep you up-to-date on all the latest news on the island.So here's some good news: Now that we've changed the newspaper, the team can spend MORE time on other things you've have been asking for, like parties, puffles, games and other new stuff! We should have told you about this sooner. Sorry it took so long to let you know! Thanks for your patience and for all the great feedback you guys have sent to us. Keep the ideas coming... we're always looking for ways to make Club Penguin better for you!"

So here are my thoughts... WOW! Really?!.. Before I start, let's establish one thing. Club Penguin is not broke. In any way shape or form. Do you think Disney would buy in for no reason? This is a multi let me stress the word MULTI, Multimillion dollar company. They sell toys, books, games, the list is endless. Yet, it is very aware to them that we want the old paper back, yet they say it is taking too much time for designers.. Come on son... Hire some more, this is a total cop out, and is completely ridiculous and almost crazy. If Club Penguin comes through on the deal, with some intensely great parties, and like 70 new Puffles this year, then hey, they did have a reason. Lane if you are out there, I am not trying to bash you or put the company down, but this is a bit ridiculous. I think you would have been a lot better off not going public with that statement, and if you are trying to make a game we like, you should really do want the customers want, no matter the circumstances. If it takes so long, you really need to think about a faster process, or hiring some more designers. You know what they say, the customer is ALWAYS right. If this results in "better" parties, more stuff, and maybe more missions, I will be thrilled! But something is telling me otherwise and that we may just see some slight improvements here and there. But hey, let's hope for the best! Let me know your thoughts in a comment..
