On 21st December of 2024, we witnessed 3 leaders, 1 Leader in Training, 1 Chief of Staff, and 1 Staff in Training retiring from SWAT. What led to their sudden retirement?
On 21st of December 2024, Fwapo stated his retirement by announcing “As you read the announcement be ready for the coming as this is not the only. A copy have been published to another location if this is going to be deleted.
Before you read this I announce that I no longer hold any postion in SWAT nor contribute in any activity.
In the last 2 weeks, I stepped down from the SWAT leadership. The reason being “I am too busy” which is a fact and not a lie, I am extremely busy and can not keep up. While it was a real reason for me to leave, I had another one laying down.
Recently, the 2 advisors lego and Aisha started to talk about shutting down SWAT without considering anyone’s opinion. No solution or time was given, except just closing the army down. The only decision was to promote clade and while I have nothing against it this proves how much the people who make such decisions do not care. The SWAT advisory team is so harsh and extremely unlikable one that is the only reason SWAT is getting worse.
The following resigned due to recent events:
Commander Fun X Time
Commander Fwapo
Commander Zooy
Chief of Staff and Second-in-Command WilliamW2010
Leader-in-Training Shazam
Staff-in-Training eternity
I give a thank you to everyone who supported me in the past and wish you the best. Never give up”
Fwapo announced that he has stepped out of his position as a leader in SWAT because he has been occupied, which is the core reason he expressed for leaving, but also because he claims to be not satisfied by the decisions recently made in SWAT’s advisory team when they proposed the idea to close the army without letting others have their say. Fwapo condemned the advisory team’s brutal and unlikable attitude that had brought SWAT down. Most of the key members were leaving in protest, which included Commander Fun X Time, Commander Fwapo (himself), Commander Zooy, Chief of Staff and Second-in-Command WilliamW2010, Leader-in-Training Shazam, and Staff-in-Training eternity. Fwapo praised his fans and called on others to never lose hope.
Apparently on 22nd December 2024. William W2010 announced his comeback to SWAT by stating “After some negotiation, I have realized that now I have become the very thing I swore to destroy, one who follows a certain person out of the army, except here the person I am following is a former leader who refuses to talk to advisors who throws around insults, and makes secret group chats. As such I have decided to return to SWATRulers. What’s up ladies, lassos, and darn tooting HCOM. Welcome back to my reign in SWATRulers.”
After some thought and negotiation, WilliamW2010 realized that he had become what he once opposed: following a former leader who refuses to communicate with advisors, throws insults, and creates secret group chats. As such, he decided to return to SWATRulers and reclaim his position. He welcomed the members with enthusiasm, saying, “What’s up ladies, lassos, and darn tooting HCOM,” signaling his return to leadership.
The Club Penguin Armies Official contacted one of the ex-leaders of SWAT Fun-X-Time to learn more about this situation.
CPAO: “Why did you all retire? Is there any other reason except the reason Fwapo stated in the announcement? If no, define in detail.”
Fun X Time: “My friends and I resigned from SWAT following recent, unfair, and overlooked events. Fwapo’s justification in his announcement is quite well explained and straight to the point. There is more to it, but Fwapo’s announcement has summarized the problem very well.As mentioned, Lego and Aisha were two key advisors who put SWAT to utmost destruction. They have supported the ones who have done wrong, and hardly supported natural growth. Krosive’s addition was Lego’s confident and shameful move, and SWAT’s unconditional shutdown was Aisha’s indecisive and sole advice. We did what the advisors said—to shut down—but intervened the process by cancelling the shutdown last minute. The advisors did not wish to consult the staff members, and they were against me polling such a decision. Leaders were always forced to accept their silliest advices. The army community has already seen a previous iteration of this in November 2024, when Lego badly convinced other leaders to accept Krosive’s induction to SWAT leadership. Alliances were at jeopardy, and SWAT leader Zooy was temporarily banned from CPA Battleground for simply having Krosive in a similar position.
Lego has genuinely done nothing other than recruiting 4,000 dead accounts in the Special Weapons and Tactics. I have read controversial posts regarding him, about homophobia allegations, using Club Penguin private servers for misuse and to bring unfair size advantages. Lego and Aisha are making use of their Discord server permissions to their fullest. Their decision-making in deciding ranks for various members also has extreme points at either bias or hate. For example, Lego is offering SWAT leader Zooy, the most knowledgeable, disciplined, and loyal, Staff-in-Training, and WilliamW2010, the best recruiter, Fourth-in-Command. Kyle104 and Mark0600 are speculated to receive leadership, even though they failed to recruit a single person in November 2024, when they were in SWAT as High Command members. Funny, isn’t it?”
CPAO: “What were some of your favourite memories in SWAT?”
Fun X Time: “Some of my favorite memories in SWAT include spending the day in SWAT chat much more than ever in 2020–2021, being promoted to leader, running the Fifteenth Anniversary celebrations, and certainly those that I established with some of my closest friends in the army.”CPAO: “Would you ever come back to SWAT?”
Fun X Time: “Potentially, yes. I may make a return when Lego and Aisha are not around, and when the torch has been passed on to someone more considerate and careful. I shall restate, I have no resentment towards SWAT; I have only disliked the misconduct of various individuals—including Lego and Aisha. They were not the truest of advisors, and I am sure an army looking for advisors can find someone better. But, one thing is certain—I am not stepping into SWAT with the presence of coward advisors. I do appreciate some hardworking and loyal members of SWAT, though.”CPAO: “Where are you off to now?”
Fun X Time: “I am now off to follow a pre-determined army career in Club Penguin armies. I have paved a wise path. And, now, I am finding home in my first army—the Aliens. They are a peaceful and super friendly army. Alongside this, they have incredible strength. Therefore, gathering some knowledge would be a wise decision to undertake. Sometime later, I would like to establish my own army, a dream which has been on my mind since the summer of 2020.”CPAO:
Fun X Time and their friends resigned from SWAT due to unfair treatment and poor decision-making by advisors Lego and Aisha. They criticized Lego for recruiting inactive accounts, biased leadership decisions, and controversial behavior, and Aisha for indecisiveness. They intervened to prevent a shutdown proposed by the advisors, who opposed consulting staff on key decisions.
Favorite SWAT memories: Chatting with their fellow team members, being promoted to leader, and planning the Fifteenth Anniversary celebrations. They could come back to SWAT if Lego and Aisha leave, leadership improves, but they are not mad at the army.
Presently, they have joined the Aliens because of their peaceful nature and strength. They work to create their own army someday.
Apparently after a few hours after Fwapo’s announcement, BestPenguin from Aliens of Club Penguin announced the end of alliance with SWAT by stating “Howdy Aliens, I hope my lovely Aliens are doing well. I have something important to announce, From today, right after this announcement, I declare Aliens and SWAT to be neutral that means we are no longer allies. We wish swat the best for their future.
That leaves us, with only one ally, that is helpforce. The rest of the armies/groups are considered as neutral. If you’re in swat you can ask for a visitor role and get your ally role removed. Signed by BP[Starship Admiral]”.
What do you think, is Lego right? Would the SWAT leaders join SWAT back? Would Aliens ally again with SWAT?
