Before the Club Penguin updates, you could '''''illegally''''' play as a member by using [[CP Trainer]], but if you did this and [[Club Penguin]] caught you, you would get banned for either 72 hours (first time) or forever (second time). After the updates, [[CP Trainer]] no longer works. You can still use [[Winsocket Packet Editor Professional]] to gain a free membership though, but is needed to remark that this is '''''illegal'''''.

If a player's penguin gets banned forever, and also is currently on a membership, they will get an email (the same email that you made the penguin on) saying that they don't have to pay for the membership.

== Criticism of Membership ==
Many [[Non-Members]] who have been on Club Penguin for a long time have claimed that Members have been given a lot more privileges than they did earlier (such as more Member-Only rooms during parties). As a result, Non-Members have been getting less privileges nowadays. Many of these Non-Members believe that Club Penguin is focusing more on making money nowadays, since the company is growing. In addition, non-members have been starting protests outside of the entrances to member-only rooms. Many penguins have been noticing that because of the growing number of members, Club Penguin has been recently more focused on buying items and attending parties, than it is simply chatting and having fun.&nbsp;Many penguins believe that this has been happening after Disney bought the company but, they are doing so much for members. Because of this, more non-members will sign up because the membership money is used to keep the site running.

The old Game Card, one method of acquiring a membership status.

Penguins who have Membership[1] can dress up in various clothing, decorate their igloos, adopt more than two puffles, have more choices, more room on servers, and go to exclusive parties. The members can get clothes not only from the Gift Shop, but if they are EPF agents, then they can buy clothes from the Elite Gear. Also, if they are ninjas, they can also get ninja furniture, buy a hand gong or get one of the Ninja Costumes. The Stage also has clothes in the Costume Trunk (note: The stage changes plays, which also affect the costumes). Also, they may open their igloo to the public to have a "party." Simply, a membership results in many additional features. The main countries for membership are the US, Canada, the UK, and Australia.[2] When a player becomes a member, a "Member Badge" will appear in the upper left corner of their Player Card. Member Badges can vary according to how long you have been a member on Club Penguin. As of January 31, 2017 players can no longer buy membership for your penguin.
