Have you ever seen someone with a purple name in chat and wondered who they are? Every RPF Veteran has a story, and this is the thirtieth edition of the Vet Spotlight column, where we take you back in time to tell the story of our esteemed veterans! Today, we’re telling you the story of our veteran Angie!
Troop Experience
Angie had recently rediscovered Club Penguin through TikTok in early 2025 and decided to play Club Penguin Journey before being approached and recruited by our 3ic Citrus.
Angie joined RPF on February 25th 2025 with no intention of being active but tuned in here and there as she saw people being friendly. She decided to join her first event, an igloo raid, out of curiosity (and because she needed the stamp) on March 14th 2025.

Following this event Angie became an active member of the community, being made to feel welcome by Haleth and Lehky. She noted that everyone was funny, always playing hunger games, and yapping. This made RPF feel like a safe space. Angie recalls one of her favourite troop moments being winning a recruitathon, and it wasn’t long before this hard work was recognised. Angie earned Troop of the Week on April 4th 2025. Angie said she was confused as her phone blew up, but it was wholesome and she felt honoured once she understood what it meant.

Officer Experience
Angie said she applied for promotions for the fun of it and didn’t understand the point at first. She never intended to apply for staff but after reaching colonel, Lehky and Haleth were kind and encouraging which motivated her to apply. Angie earned the rank of officer cadet on May 12th 2025!
Angie said that she did not know what she was walking into when she applied for officer cadet. She started beginning to take on new responsibilities and see things in a different light. This included watching out for if people were following rules and if she was doing her job correctly. Nonetheless, she enjoyed learning new things and expanding her knowledge. She also credited Art for being a wonderful mentor! Angie then got promoted to brigadier general on June 2nd 2025!
Angie found her role as a brigadier general intimidating as she was the newest member of staff and didn’t really know how things worked yet so she was quiet all while trying to learn. Thankfully the staff team she walked into was supportive and wholesome.
During her time as an officer Angie was mentored by Master DS, who she says was wonderful, helpful, and made sure that Angie felt heard and understood. Angie later on switched to work with our rebel commander, Link as she wanted to learn more and get to know them on a better level. She credits Link for being an amazing mentor and forever being patient with her.
Angie really enjoyed being an officer and learned a lot. Some of her accomplishments include bringing new members to RPF, helping newer staff members and being helpful in anyway she could. Her biggest achievement was completing her goal in RPF, becoming a general. Angie became a general on October 27th 2025!
Angie found that the transition from lieutenant general to general was different as she got the opportunity to work with officer cadets and enjoyed the new responsibilities. She loved seeing people grow, learn and thrive, as well as being able to contribute towards that experience. Angie also shared that she likes to reach for more which she achieved by becoming a general and managed to master her jobs. Overall, Angie had eight mentees throughout her time as a general.
Life as a veteran

Angie said that being a veteran is very bittersweet. She misses being in RPF all the time as she misses her friends and community, but it is also a breather for her as she does not need to stress about officer duties. She is grateful to be able to tune in and go whenever she pleases all while still being a familiar face within RPF.
That wraps up this edition of Vet Spotlight! A huge thank you to Angie for the incredible amount of work you’ve put in to the RPF, and for allowing me the opportunity to interview you for this edition! And a thank you to all the readers that have made it this far down into the post! Keep rebelling!
Matt | General
