Sure, we all know and love pirates such as Captain Jack Sparrow, Captain James Hook, etc. But what about those pirates of lore? What about actual pirates that have their place in history? Blackbeard, William Kidd, Anne Bonney, Mary Read- the list goes on!
In this loverly thread, anyone is welcome to post any information on any pirate they would like. Anything goes! Well, there are, of course, rules... guidelines, of course, but anyone may post.
And don't limit yourself to information on specific pirates; this is a thread for pirate-lovers to discuss any and all things piratical. (I love that word! mrgreen )

Rules:
*Abide by Gaia Terms of Service.
*Keep swearing to a minimum if you must. (It really isn't as attractive as some believe it to be.)
*Try to stay on the topic of pirates. I won't kill you if you stray a bit, seeing as I can have quite the ADD myself, but please try.
wahmbulance AND MOST IMPORTANTLY wahmbulance
*Please use proper grammar. it drvs me up a wall whn ppl tlk lik ths. Just don't do it in this thread, okay? I understand a mistake here and there, but I don't want to see people intentionally ignoring capital letters, commas, etc.
Anything I should add? I've never started potentially big threads such as this. Suggestions are welcome.

I was just using a few examples. Ideally, if you'd like them mentioned, you mention them- tell us who they are, what their history is. Basically this thread is for information-craving people like myself. ^^
(The Dread Pirate Roberts is the best! biggrin )
P.S. I promise I'll stop by and fill some of the reserves when I have the time and patience for it...
