Fox Posted December 20, 2016 Share Posted December 20, 2016 As we count down to the last days of Captain Twill thoughts turn to the future of historical pirate discussion. Facebook is not such a good medium as Twill has been over the years, but it's unlikely to go away any time soon, so may I extend an invitation to any denizens of Twill who are not already members to join the Authentic Pirate Living History group on Facebook.

Coastie04 Posted December 21, 2016 Share Posted December 21, 2016 Moderators of said facebook group might want to have a couple of 'canned' answers to common questions filed away in a word document so that they can just be cut/pasted when those inevitable questions arise. You know: bucket boots, proper flags and why pirates say "arrrgh" all the time. Unfortunately we can no longer cite/link pyracy.com...

Coastie04 Posted December 23, 2016 Share Posted December 23, 2016 Well, in good sailor fashion, I assumed the best, but prepared for the worst.

Fox Posted December 26, 2016 Author Share Posted December 26, 2016 The whole of the Pub is being closed down, yes. There is a thread explaining HERE.

Swashbuckler 1700 Posted December 28, 2016 Share Posted December 28, 2016 (edited) Hmm. It seems all fairly specific and concentrated on reenacting. Do you deal with related but slightly deeper historical points?

At least for someone like me, and who is too a "weird" foreigner, it is less fun to lose this "privacy" behind anynomous forum account... But something to get used to I guess. (BTW Foxe: I have your document collection book now. It is great, of course. Really something that makes me feel hunger of information is fairly well satisfied) Edited December 30, 2016 by Swashbuckler 1700 "I have not yet Begun To Fight!"John Paul Jones Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fox Posted December 31, 2016 Author Share Posted December 31, 2016 There are plenty of weird foreigners in the APLH group, but I understand what you mean. Still, it might be a case of beggars not being choosers. I hope you enjoy the documents. Volume II is in the works, but other projects keep getting in the way...
