Club Penguin Removes Old Life Jacket!?

Dood, say it ain't so! Did Club Penguin remove old Life Jackets from our inventory? If so, why?

Rockhopper gave us a Life Jacket as a free item, but it is no longer in my inventory! Check out this picture from January 23, 2008:


Look at this non-member's inventory:


If you try to click it, you get the famous "Oops!" screen:


How can Club Penguin make a FREE item become a member item? Weird!

It makes me wonder, if they did remove old life jackets from our inventory and/or make them member items, is it so only members would be able to ride the boat to the Brown Puffle Cave? This is SO unfair! I sure hope it is just a bug, but a little hard to believe, don't ya think?

Do you still have your old life jacket? Or, has it been removed like mine? Do you think Club Penguin took the item intentionally or do you think it is just a bug?

  1. I do agree that it may be a bit unfair but at least members get a little more worth for the money

  5. There were two old Life Jackets. One was a member one and one was the Rockhopper one. I still got my old member one with my new member one but my old Rockhopper one has gone too. :(

  8. Do they only remove this for non members? I still have mine.

    ReplyDelete
  9. There is a new jacket that is why. hope that helps

    ReplyDelete
  10. mine is still there but grey for members only

    ReplyDelete
  11. If its gone it may return after the party? I Didnt get one anyway so Im not really bothered xD

    ReplyDelete
  12. they might have deleted it so they can release it again1? there might have been a problem with people who already have this item

  13. Mimo for the new system defender game if you hover over the icon but dont click it then it says:
    **systemdefend_hint**
    What does it do?

    ReplyDelete
  14. I think its just for members for this party. When the party finishes I think it will come back.

  15. I still have my and it's good but i can't wear it because I'm nonmember

    ReplyDelete
  16. I think that Club Penguin intentionally removed the free life jackets. This way, only members can go in. For once, they should treat the nonmembers nicely. They should have atleast made the Brown Puffle free for nonmembers because they can only have two puffle types.

    ReplyDelete
  17. its a probably a bug. when cp came withe new life jacket its only for members so there was a bug that the other one got it to

    ReplyDelete
  18. i thought they were different

    ReplyDelete
  19. i think this is temperary because u need a life jacket to get brown ouffle so u took it off for this party so non members dont get in and this stinks because the non members deserver more

    ReplyDelete
  20. Well There's one thing proved, Humans Aren't the smartest species, BROWN PUFFLES ARE

    ReplyDelete
  21. The sports life jacket doesent work if you try enter the boat.

    ReplyDelete
  22. Mine is gone as well. Maybe it will be enabled for non-members when the party is over.

    ReplyDelete
  23. okay this is insane. i cheeked my first cp account that has membership and i have it and can wear it but when i went to my second non member account it was still in my inventory but when i tryed to put it on it said that its a member item!!!!

    ReplyDelete
  24. well here the thing i used to have the jacket on my old penguin hes a non member but he got banned forever because of hackers and my sister but i think its for the party and then it will come back out but if its not coming back i really think thats unfair

  25. What I'm about to say is a joke and is funny and please don't be mad or offended... Maybe they won't let you wear it so you can't sneak into the member-only rooms lol...

    Your probably right. It is probably just a bug. It might be fixed soon.

  27. CP shouldnt need to remove an old item just to keep nonmembers out of member rooms, all they have to do is make it so only members can get in even if youre a nonmember with the item needed to get in. theyve done in several times in the past (like the secret lab in halloween 2008, you needed the scientist coat to get in and nonmembers could unlock it but still couldnt get in) without removing items from players inventories

    ReplyDelete
  28. I still have my lifejacket, it is under the neck section. But it doesn't work to go across the sea with.

    ReplyDelete
  29. the old jacket wont work anyway if u try and enter the boat, u can only use the new one

    ReplyDelete
  30. i have my old one
    it dose not work sammalyn my name on cp

    ReplyDelete
  31. I BET they took it on purpose! How dare CP! >:(((

    Yea, I mean, all they have is half the (originally non-member) games, the ability to actually BUY items, most of the puffles, their own parties, EPF gear, and more! They OBVIOUSLY should also have a 2-year-old non-member item!

    /end sarcasm

    ReplyDelete
  33. I'm guessing it's just for the party but still thats a ripoff to nonmembers

    ReplyDelete
  34. That's really weird and unfair. I wish they would give them back because that's one of my favorite non-member accessories

  35. This was one of my favorite items i had. I hope it will come back. Is the brown puffle going to be here after the party?

    ReplyDelete
  36. I have proof this is a bug. I went on cp, got the old life jacket on, went to the shore, and built the boat. The hatch didn't open, so the old life jacket wouldn't work anyway. It is probally a bug.
    -Davybear

    ReplyDelete
  37. UNFAIR! i know i dont have the item but i think they are removing so nonmembers cant get on the boat and it will return after the party.

    ReplyDelete
  38. i tried using the old life jacket, doesnt work. :(
    -Blueebeel

    ReplyDelete
  39. They removed it!
    I think they did it because they don't want any non-members getting a puffle. Psh, so long for being old and collecting items that will be useful someday...

    ReplyDelete
  40. CP probably did this just for the party so none of us non-members can get free puffles. I tihnk they'll return it after the party.

    ReplyDelete
  41. Mine is like that too! I can't believe they are making an item I already have into a member item! I liked wearing the life jacket! I think they need to fix this!

  42. I'm a non-member and I can still use it...

    ReplyDelete
  43. mimo why were u orange again??? :O

    ReplyDelete
  44. Oh, and I tried going on the boat with that old one. Didn't work.. :( lol

    ReplyDelete
  45. Um... Mimo if you are not a member how did you get a brown puffle? I mean, in the previous post you went and got Patty (your brown puffle) in a members only room. But at the same time you got the infamous non-member 'OOPS' screen? I know this is a dumb question, but are you half member, half nonmember ;) ?

    ReplyDelete
  46. I can still wear mine, but I am a member at the moment. ☻ ☺ ☻

    ReplyDelete
  47. I just tried wearing mine to get on the boat, but the door wouldn't open, so I don't think it has to do with the party. ☻ ☺ ☻

    ReplyDelete
  48. I think they took it purposely, so that non-members would not be able to ride the boat.By the way have you noticed what happens now when you try to remember a penguin that you have entered? it says things like if someone logs on the computer they can use your money up and things like that.

  49. I KNOW WHY! Its so that non-members can't sail away and get the brown puffle! Non-members can't buy the new life jacket.

    ReplyDelete
  50. I actually asked Club Penguin why this was, cos I thought it was a bit unfair, and they told me it was so that Non-Members wouldnt be able to get to Brown Puffle Cave, as they said some had been using those LifeJackets and getting over, because they had been using those instead, because they knew that it wouldnt be picked up on the System since it had the same name as the other Life Jacket, which you have to buy to get over. I did ask if you would get them back, but they said that they couldnt tell me, however they said that after the Party some Items that Non-Members had will be back in the Inventory, so don`t be to sad! Remember, this was what I was told, they may change it afterwards..... OK for me though, since Im a Member. :) Thanks Mimo!

  51. They Just Wants Us To Be A Member Or They Wont Let Us Get That Brown Puffle

    ReplyDelete
  52. I think its a bug because the new Cp dont tamper with the old. Maybe they put the membership "stamp" on the New life jacket while at the same time, accidently doing the same with the old one.

    ReplyDelete
  53. It's probably cause when you go in the boat u need to put on a life jacket and probably after the party is over you will get it back

    ReplyDelete
  54. i dont think clubpenguin is fair to nonmembers nonmembers deserve better who cares about payment?

    ReplyDelete
  55. The funny thing is I'm a member and I feel this is totally unfair. Can't CP just let some non-members enjoy the parties instead of forcing them to pay for a membership?

    ReplyDelete
  56. Even though, I agree with the person that said only make the rooms members only. Well, instead, if they want the puffle members only so badly then why don't they let them in the cave but not allowed to buy the puffles??? OMG, right now we are only allowed 1 brown puffle so why not let non-members have one? (I'm a member fighting on a non-member's side)

    ReplyDelete
  57. yeah it could be a bug couse i seend a penguin today at 19th january and he was wearing that lifejacket and i reported a bug on cp support.I wonder whad do they will say.

    ReplyDelete
  58. Goodzilla,Mimo have an non-member accont,the test account or stuff like that.

    ReplyDelete
  59. its is fair! Members pay, so, they should get advantages.

    ReplyDelete
  60. I think that Club Penguin intentionally removed the free life jackets. This way, only members can go in. For once, they should treat the nonmembers nicely. They should have atleast made the Brown Puffle free for nonmembers because they can only have two puffle types.

    They only get two puffle types because they dont pay. Brown puffles for members is entirely fair as they get more for their money!

  61. Another bad thing that disney made. Im sry, but i hate somethings that disney did. heres a few!
    rsnail( the creator) does not work with Disney
    non members get same items( im a member, but it still is not fare!)
    deleting items!?! omg!
    Billybob, happy77, and others came on club penguin, but know they use stupid cover up penguins because Disney told them to

    Thats some BAD things that disney did to use! club penguin! We Need old CP!

    P.S. Sry about the caps.

  62. They took my life jacket away. It's not even in my inventory

    ReplyDelete
  63. why would thy need to make Rockhopper's FREE ife vest member? i mean, not even members can use it to get on the boat. i tried it and only the new life jacket will work. Did CP screw up AGAIN and make it so the vest worked for a while but instead of fixing that glitch first they made it members only and then removed the function?

    ReplyDelete
  64. Wah! That is pretty unfair! Also mimo, you should have another rain party on chobots! That would rock!

    ReplyDelete
  65. They will probably give it back after the party is over.

    ReplyDelete
  66. No, it can't just be because of the brown puffle thing because I tried to ride the boat with my old life jacket and it didn't work, even on my member account. I am pretty enraged about this. It's not fair for them to just change the item like that. :/ If it turns out that this is not a bug, we should all write emails asking about it.

    ReplyDelete
  67. I just went through the entire forest maze, did the stupid machine, to find out that i cant even do anything because im not a member. I wish cp could of told me so i didnt waste my time. Nonmembers should get more. Its stupid. We already cant buy anything else..? Let us buy a freaking life jacket! Gosh!

    ReplyDelete
  68. I don't have the lifejacket but that is ridicously stupid for non members.CP and their glitches are really annoying me lately...there seems to be a glitch every other day

    ReplyDelete
  69. hey mimo!!!
    i was luckyly wearing the jacket and when i opened my inventory ,the membership message came....but im still wearing it{im a non member}

    ReplyDelete
  70. I still have the item but im a member and i tried to get on the boat but it didnt work

    ReplyDelete
  71. so not fair CP! you are making ppl stop playing, don't you see? but i think it's gonna be available when the expedition is over and brown puffles are available at the pet shop.
    NOT COOL THOUGH!

    ReplyDelete
  72. i agreed. that is so unfair for us who aren't members!!

    ReplyDelete
  73. I sent Club Penguin an email about this, they said its just a bug. So don't worry!

    ReplyDelete
  74. Turns out it really was a bug. I emailed CP a few days ago, and then they replied saying:

    Hi there,

    Thanks for taking the time to contact us.

    This is actually a bug that we are experiencing and our team is working hard to fix it right away. We appreciate your patience in this matter.

    It is true that only penguins with a membership can enter the Brown Puffle cave. What did you think of the cool maze though? Did you find it hard wondering through the tall trees? I think my favorite part was the crazy machine invention! Although it did take me quite a long time to figure it out... Did it take you a long time?

    If you notice anymore bugs, be sure to let us know! The sooner we know about them, the sooner we can fix them!

    Waddle on,

    Ashley
    Club Penguin Support

    So yep, that's it.
