Purple Republic/Club Penguin Raids

I shall work on this in a little while, Sorry for the incompleteness

About

The Purple Republic is a group originating on 4chan's /v/ board dedicated to raiding Club Penguin ^[1] servers, similar to the Pool's Closed phenomenon associated with Habbo Hotel.

The members of the Purple Republic raid Club Penguin servers with purple-colored penguins wearing miner helmets, refer to each other as PR, and treat any color other than purple as an inferior race of penguin.

Origin

Still Researching

The Purple Republic came into being some time in early July, 2011 on the /v/ board of 4chan when users began a raid on Club Penguin. The Steam Group ^[2] was created on July 8th, 2011.

It is lead by an anon named Violantealleta^[4].

Spread

Since the group's inception, they have become a large group on 4chan, with over 900 members in the Steam group ^[2] and repeated threads on 4chan's /v/ board to organize the raids against specific servers and against specific groups, such as the Pink Alliance ^[3] and various other groups, which was formed (both formally and informally) to combat the Purple Republic.

Besides the servers of the game, the Republic edited the Wiki Article for Club Penguin: Elite Penguin Force ^[5] on July 13th.
