Check out the Forums!

Hi guys!
Sorry for not keeping up in tip-top shape, there isn't much to blog about due to the maintenance going on.
But luckily, there's always an option we can fall back on - the Forums! Ah, the glorious Forums. When you register account, the ideas are limitless! Here are a few to get you started:
  • Draw a picture of your Chobot hanging out with some friends
  • Create your very own guide for others to follow
  • Start a fun Forum game
  • Write a short story or a poem
  • Talk about your favorite foods
  • Discuss the most recent episode of your favorite TV show
  • Rave about the newest movie you just saw
  • And much, much more!
So what are you waiting for?

Have fun,

Malicious Software and the Chobots forum

Attention to all users! Please read this because this is very important and might've happened to you.
 
The Chobots staff has received multiple reports regarding a potentially dangerous file or program being shared via Skype. This file or program ends with .exe (run for 50k.exe, CocoaInstall.exe, SHEENIEB PANEL WINX7P.exe, and item hack.exe) and has been found to install malicious content on your computer.

The file or program is said to provide an account with 50,000 bugs once activated or installed on your computer. The staff strongly advise that you do not accept or download this file or program in anyway.

What this file or program really does:

This program provides remote access to the computer it is installed on and can get into your webcam.

The file or program is currently being investigated by our Administrators and Developers. If you have any further information, please provide a report to admin@chobots.net. Let your friends be aware of this situation as soon as possible. If you have accidently downloaded it, please delete/uninstall it as soon as possible. Thank you for your awareness!

Now that I have your attention, I want to make sure you all are aware that the forum has reopened!


The Chobots Forum is a community page where you can discuss with other users about the game and other off-topic stuff. You can participate in contests, earn sweet awards, and even run your own forum blog! User feedback, suggestions, and ideas will be checked frequently on the forum by the Chobots Team. Unfortunately, after a critical error, if you had an account on the old Chobots Forum, you will have to re-register. All data from the old forum was also lost into cyberspace and the developers were unable to retrieve any lost information. The staff apologies for any inconveniences that this might've caused for users.
Check out the forum and register today! Leave any feedback in the feedback section on the forum of what you think once you've gotten around it!
 
Have a marvelous Monday,

Juniors Can Now Gift

Hi everyone!
Chobots is always looking for more ways to improve the game. They have been listening to what users have been saying, and thus have brought the gifting feature back for all members!
To be able to gift to other users, you must be at least 30 days old or have purchased citizenship. While trading will still remain a premium feature, this is a huge step into future updates to come!
Enjoy gifting,

New Author + Recap of St. Patrick's Party!

Hey guys, Camera here! I'm a new author for Vasa's amazing blog! (long-time fan, new-time writer). ;)
Basically, I will post about anything new to the Chobots World, for your viewing pleasure!

To begin, The St. Patrick's Day party just ended, and it was a huge blast! The party began with some awesome magic while they chose winners of their St. Patrick's Day look contest, whom happened to be Sweetypie0518, Willkdh, and Ariannagrande27!! Nice job guys--you have all became 2,000 bugs richer! Sweet!




After about 20 minutes of the moderator's magic and music that kept everyone on their feet, Vani made it even better and held a quiz, in which a handful of people won this amazing shirt of hers:


After all of these festivities, they ended the party with a massive amount of rain, such as Anonymous masks, Samantha hair, headbows, and more!


Then sadly, the party came to a close. It was so much fun, and I can't wait until the next party! :)
Well, that ends my first post. Hope you guys enjoyed, and can't wait to post again!

St. Patrick's Day Research Contest

Hi everyone!
Can you believe St. Patrick's day is only a few days away? I sure can't! The team figured it would be best if you knew a little background information before the party, so they're going to have a research contest!
Feel free to use this template when making your entry:
From today until March 23rd, you're asked to find the most interesting facts about St. Patrick's day. You can do so using some image editors, such as Paint, Photoshop, or anything else. The winners will receive citizenship, bugs, and even a little something extra!
Please keep in mind plagiarism is not accepted. You must rewrite the information in your own words. IF you catch anyone cheating, please email support@chobots.net
Have fun!

March Citizenship Items

Hi guys!
I can already feel spring in the air, warmer weather, and lots of sunshine! Since the month of March is upon us, of course there is a new citizenship package:
It looks like this package is based on St. Patrick's Day, a holiday coming up! Did you notice the new template? ;)
Along with a month of citizenship, 10,000 bugs, and the ability to trade/gift, you will receive a clown mask, board, wings, and four leaf clover! What could be luckier than that?
Have a great day,

Board Games Competition

Hi guys!
Now that Chobots is up, it's time for another contest. Let's sharpen our logical thinking skills and settle in for a three way competition involving chess, checkers, and sliders; all that can be found at the Academy Street and in the Academy!
Starting today and until March 15th, now is the time to rack up as many points as you can on the scoreboards. I've heard there's some pretty sweet prizes for the top three placers, so get playing!
Good luck,

Twin Party

Hello guys!
Unfortunately, Chobots was down for a few days due to maintenance. But now, let's celebrate because it's back up and running smoothly! More specifically, let's have a party - a Twin Party!
As you can see from the image above, this will take place today, March 8th, at 10PM cho-time in the Cafe. Teamwork plays a key role in this party, you and your partner will have to coordinate outfits in order to twin. Your best bet is to plan ahead so you can be prepared for the party! As always, there will be loads of fun magic, music, and rain. The bets three matching pairs will receive bugs.
See you there!
