I was wonderin, I havn't seen many of me fellow crew. I think Diego and Rummy are the only ones I've actually had the pleasure of meeting. And those avatars and profile pics are too small ta be seein with me dead lights. So I was thinkin that I should start a thread, so me mates can be puttin pics up o themselves in their Pyrate garb. Also ya can post if thar be a particular someone o the crew that you would like ta be seein a pic of.

Meet your Admin / Moderator Team Hello my name is Kimberly but I am known as The Black Syren . I am a Texas native and have always been fascinated with pirates and buried treasure. Grew up close to the coast so during the summer or on weekends I was always at Crystal Beach or riding the ferry to Galveston. The ferry became my pirate ship and I have been hooked ever since. However, I did not know about the Pyracy Pub till The Curse of the Black Pearl came out. I began looking online for others who shared my interest. I had no idea how many shared my interest till I signed into the Pub. Of course, signing in meant coming up with …

How to use Discord for Chat Our Discord channel is a wonderful resource for asking and answering questions in real time. I recommend downloading the ap to your device of choice, but a perusal computer is highly recommended. There are two parts to the channel. ‘Written’ is for text communications, pictures and video, and can be seen even when using ‘Parlay’. ‘Parlay’ is a voice option, where participants can listen and/or speak to one another. When using ‘Parlay’ we recommend getting a good pair of headphones with a microphone and setting your voice and video settings to ‘Push to Talk’. This costs out background noise, feedback a…

Back in 2009, Haunting Lily and I began a thread to consolidate discussions from all parts of the Pub regarding 'How to Get Started at PIP' (Pirates in Paradise). Since so many people were asking us about basic clothing, tents, weapons, and every other kit you can imagine, it was beneficial to have it all in one place. Having a list at out fingertips saved us a lot of time. Fast forward to 2012 and we're still sending people to that thread, which remains buried in one of the crew sub-forums where most people never notice it. I spoke with Lily today and asked her if I could move the materials in that thread to the Crow's Nest, but after looking it over, I've decided to…

I loaded a ton of photos over the last couple days into the event albums. They covered many miscellaneous Pyrate events, and Ft Taylor from 2014 back to 2005. I know each photo shows up as an activity in unread content. Sorry bout that! I'm done now... Several people were asked to load photos they have, so that may still happen. If anyone wishes to contribute, please feel free. If you want photo credit, let me know and I'll add you to the album credits. Just be careful to load photos corresponding to that years event album. If you are not sure, ask someone! I know they can be misfiled, or stored with no date info, etc... Someone here may be able to help identi…

While looking for Tallships events in the Great Lakes. I ran across this site. Apparently the caretakers and have run into some problems. I imagine it has more to do with money than anything else... Protect Brig Niagara was organized with the goal to ensure that the US Brig Niagara is in the hands of people who can maintain her and operate her safely, successfully, and transparently as an actively sailing vessel in her role as an ambassador for the people and history of Pennsylvania. Our concerns have reached a new level as, according to a statement made on August 9, 2024 by Captain Bailey who was recently named Niagara‘s captain. PHMC [The Pennsylvania Histo…
