    This is one of the weirdest things I've seen in a while. I had an account on Club Penguin back in the day and have one on CP Rewritten, but I had no idea there were so many recreations or that shit like this happened on some of these recreation servers. (EDIT FOR CLARIFICATION: It's not the same server as mentioned in the article, that was careless use of a pronoun on my part)

    “RFCP is notoriously forgiving,” he said. “Maybe to a fault. We know that making a sexual joke in the public Discord doesn’t automatically make you a pedo. People make jokes and comments like that. It happens.”

    Goddamn. Not when you know you have kids on your server, WTF.

      It seems to be a loose collection of hobby programmers in their late teens and early 20s.

        So they are not easily accountable, right? And, because it looks kiddie enough, I can see how non-techie parents might think that's okay. These guys should be seriously sued/investigated. That's a...

        These guys should be seriously sued/investigated. That's a kind of content where I don't think there should be much leeway.
