Yes it’s almost that time again. “Talk Like A Pirate Day” is coming up soon. In fact, it is September 19th.
Most days are like all of the others,
Go to work, come back home, watch TV,
But, brother, if I had me druthers,
I’d chuck it and head out to sea,
For I dream of the skull and the crossbones,
I dream of the great day to come,
When I dump the mundane for the Old Spanish Main
And trade my computer for rum! ARRR!
Drink up, me hearties!
– Ethic
for your pirate goodiness….

On my WoW server Archimonde, there’s an entire guild who roleplay pirates called The Shipwrecked Pirates.

They’re hilarious! Too bad they’re on alliance and I can’t understand what they’re saying because my old guild had a huge brawl with them in the … er those flats down south of thousand needles (forget the name). We had a big 15 vs 15 going, and faught about 10 times that day, was huge fun.
They were sniping people from the zepplin tower in Grom’Gol and a GM came along and told them to move to the ground or leave and they gave her a really hard time and kept calling her “Lubber” and “Lass” and making dirty jokes about her, asking her if she wanted some grog etc. Wish I’d saved that screen with all the text it was a riot.
LOL I just may have to make an alt there to check them out….
(Shimmering Flats, btw)
Any guild that can befuddle a GM with piratey goodness has to be a heck of a guild. Archiminde ye say?
