Red_Dawn Posted August 17, 2010 Share Posted August 17, 2010 I'm new on this forum, though a few of you may know me from Piratesinfo.com. I'm in the research stage of writing cheesy pirate stories (and boy, do I need to work on my research). I've lurked for a few years and this looked like a good place to learn things, so I figured I should probably join so I could ask questions. The more sources, the better! (That, and I might need to ask less family-friendly questions than Piratesinfo.com allows.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
William Brand Posted August 17, 2010 Share Posted August 17, 2010 I was a member of Pirateinfo before learning of this place. Welcome aboard and feel free to ask questions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mission Posted August 17, 2010 Share Posted August 17, 2010 When were you a member of Piratesinfo, William? I think they still have me listed as a moderator over there, although I really haven't been active since 2004. Hi, Red_Dawn! You're just in time to wish Daniel farewell. (He's off to law school.) Mycroft: "My brother has the brain of a scientist or a philosopher, yet he elects to be a detective. What might we deduce about his heart?" John: "I don't know." Mycroft: "Neither do I. But initially he wanted to be a pirate." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red_Dawn Posted August 18, 2010 Author Share Posted August 18, 2010 Thanks for the welcome, everyone! I'll warn you now, though; I can ask some pretty stupid-seeming questions.

Elena Posted August 20, 2010 Share Posted August 20, 2010 (edited) Welcome to a fellow writer from an (aspiring) one! If you feel like writing a bit more in a pirate-filled (or history-filled) environment, please join one of the two Age of Sail RPGs I am on. One is brand new, so you can get a good position in any crew you wish - pirates, privateers, French/ Spanish/ British navy. And I have read extensively "PirateInfo" too...
