CPBA FLAG

 

                        

 

History of the Club Penguin Builders Army: On June 16, 2008 the CPBA was founded by Waddles0. Very quickly people were joining the army. We had a few invasions. One of our best was the Invasion of Frosty. During January 2009 the army was very un-active. Waddles0 promoted Zigbop to Co-Leader to help him revive the army. And thats just what they did. Some of the first troops in CPBA includes: Waddles0, Gamedplayer, Chekmatter, Zigbop, Sliperdiper2, Lunabear111, and Licoln31543. Later we had a merge with the Marine Corp of Cp. A few weeks later we merged with the Club Penguin Dark Fighters. Holo2 came to be a leader in the CPBA. Next, we joined the SAWW2. We decided to created an alliance called the Echo Alliance it consisted of the CPBA, Marine Corp of Cp, Club Penguin Dark Fighters, and the Rebel Penguin Federation. A Few Weeks later CPBA was again deemed in-active, and after over 2 years of hard work and determination, on october 27, 2010, Zigbop(the only one left on the site pretty much) had made the mark that it was in truth, Retired. Maybe if we can get our butts moving again we can pull through. It is now almost a year after this page was made and th writing from “A few weeks later” and on, was added. It is currently Febuary 13, 2011 and we are far past un-active and retired. No one is on the site, Waddles has privated it, and the history lives on in our hearts and minds. Thanks for everything – Zigbop(cpba’s MVP Leader and soldier)( No More History to be Added)

We control these servers, but we let allies come and citizens in. Anyone can come in, except groups of enemy armies. No one is allowed to set up a base there, unless we give them a Land Grant for a certain server. When we give a Land Grant, we still control the server, but the other army can control it also. If we go to war with that army, the Land Grant can be ended, and we get the server back.

By becoming an ally of the Club Penguin Builders Army, you agree to the above terms

                                                              3. Government:

The Club Penguin Builders are a Democratic Republic. That means that we are a mix between a Democracy (We elect our congress) and a Republic (The people have a say, and we have congressional votes for big decisions) We do have a bit of a dictatorship when it comes to picking new leaders, co-leaders, or third in commands. New leaders are picked by the retiring leader. A retiring leader can choose to have an election for the next leader if they wish not to pick. Head Generals, or Second-in-Commands, and Commander Generals, or Third-in-Commands are picked by the current leader. Here are the ranks in the Government:

• No leader of CPBA, defined as 4ic, 3ic, 2ic, 1.5 ic, co-leader or leader, shall hold a leader position in any other top 10 army.
• Supreme Commander: This person is chosen by a retiring leader, unless the retiring leader would like an election. They have the last say. They can overrule a decision by the president if they feel it is necessary.
• President: The Leader is now also the President. There will be a Vice President who is chosen by the Leader and the Vice President will then pick a Grand Senator (Either by choice or by election)
• Vice President: This person can either be chosen by the president or elected depending on the president’s wishes. The Vice President has no limit for the time he/she can serve. The only way to get a new Vice President is if the President fires him/her or if he/she is impeached, with a 75% vote by the Senate.
• Grand Senator: This person is picked by the Vice President and is basically the Vice President of the senate. They take over in the absence of the Vice President and can hold Senate elections. They can be removed by the President, Vice President, or a 75% senate vote.
• Senator: These people must be elected. They can only serve for four months before becoming ordinary citizens or being elected again. Note: If a senator is retired/quits/is fired then the Senate shall vote on a citizen who shall take their place in the Senate.
• Ambassador: Helps with the passing of laws that has to do with other armies/governments.
• Citizen (Soldier): Anyone who is not in one of the above positions of the Democratic Club Penguin Builders Army’s government is a citizen.

 

When making big decisions, everyone in the Senate votes, but the officials in the government have more influence in the end. If a voting is tied,the Final decision is made by the Senate President. Any bill may be vetoed by the leader of CPBA at their discretion for the benefit of CPBA. Keep this in mind when presenting bills that may not benefit CPBA.

SHORT VERSION

1. Admins: I agree that the problem of coups has become a problem mainly because of the number of admins on the site. Therefore the only admins will be the following: Waddles0, Zigbop, Gamedplayer, Holo2, Sliperdiper2, Dan3298 and the Leader.

2. Owners: The owners seem to be good but punishments for owners who break the rules will be worse than the punishments for mods. The job of owners is to moderate the mods.

3. Mods: Mods will be handpicked every promo day. There is no rank limit. The mods will be picked by the Leader, the Commander, and by a group of people picked by the leader. A list will be made monthly of the mods and the 2ics and 3ics are not to mod anyone who is not on the list. They may however make a list of people they believe should be modded which they will present to the Leader for approval.

4. Supreme Commander: This Army a Democratic Olligarchy with a senate mixed in. This is basically the structure CPBA has always been but one of the first time that it was made official.

5. President: The Leader is now also the President. There will be a Vice President who is chosen by the Leader and the Vice President will then pick a Grand Senator (Either by choice or by election) who has the same powers as VP used to have. VP will now have the same powers as the President had except for a few changes that will be worked out in the future.

6. Divisions:  There will be 2 divisions and the 1ics are in charge of  picking leaders to run each division and ranking soldiers into their divisions from the division registration page. There will also be two Division Generals for each division. Once a Division General or 3ic becomes inactive with their division they will be replaced. The 3ics are also in charge of making sure that the Division Generals are active. This means that there will be only 3 3ics.

7. Senate: Senators will be chosen by comment polls with no rank restrictions. 4 high ranks, 4 low ranks, and 2 handpicked by the President. There will be meetings scheduled by the President at least every 2 weeks. Senators who cannot have an orderly meeting and cannot stay quiet when someone else is talking will be replaced. Being a Senator is a privilege, not a right and it will be regarded as an honor.

7a. Power of the Senate: The Senate cannot change anyone’s rank in the army of on chat. They however may vote on a change to the ranks or chat to present to the Leader. Senators may vote other Senators out of the Senate only with a majority vote and the final approval of the President or Vice President. The job of the Senators is to make laws and regulations for ACP and to discuss problems if they may occur. Their laws can be vetoed by the President or Vice President.

8. Retiring Leader: When the Supreme Commander retires he/she has the ultimate decision on who will replace them. They can pick anyone in the ranks no matter what rank they may be. Elections are not advised but the decision for one is up to the retiring Leader.

9. Commander: The Commander is the rank for Leader in training. They have the powers of a Leader except for some  exceptions. They are not president, they cannot add 2ics or fire 2ics, and they are not admins on the site. Main owner on chat is up to the current leader.

10. Second-in-Commands:The job of 2ics is to know the soldiers and to listen to their complaints and try to solve them. They are also there to answer questions.

11. Third-in-Commands: See Divisions Above

12. CPBABC: The Leader (aka Division General) of the CPBABC will remain Leader until they have been proven unfit to be Leader. They cannot be removed without reason.

13. Governors: Governors really do not have a purpose so there will be no more governors.

14. War: War can be declared by either the Leader or the Commander. Senate can vote to declare war but must have it approved by the Leader or the Commander. 2ics and 3ics may NOT declare War unless the leader gives permission.

15. Join laws. Nobody can Re-join Above Lt General. You can come back and earn your way over it. Former Main Leaders can only re join on an Owner rank if it is Approved by the Majority of the current Executive Branch
