Blackwarden Posted November 28, 2006 Posted November 28, 2006 Greetins' mates, I be Nathaniel Warden but me crew call me Blackwarden or Late Nate (damn those Frenchies). I hail from the island of Nevis, but me father sent me to Carolina to oversee his plantation there. Alas, I failed in his wishes and fled his wrath, took up with a scurvy lot, and gone on the account. **Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Scott and I've been a lurker for a long time and only recently registered on the forums. I'm a boat captain & dive instructor in real life, and lover of all things nautical, especially pyrates. I've been putting this off for a long time and I'm so glad to finally be able to post. Some of the names (and faces) on the forums are actually quite familiar to me from past events...especially Pirates in Paradise. I've been to Key West the past five years, but like the forums, have always lurked on the side and watched all the fun (although dressed in garb). I want this year to be different. I hope to be able to meet those of you that will be attending PiP this week and perhaps learn from the veterans. For the rest, I look forward to learning from, and conversing with, you as well on these here cyber seas** Now, if I be rememberin' rightly, I owe all you gents and ladies a drink. I'll be havin' a Dark and Stormy. What can I get you? *Throws the last of the stolen coins on the bar and grins* Regards, Blackwarden

Rumba Rue Posted November 28, 2006 Posted November 28, 2006 Thank you for posting here. Honestly we are having some major problems with spammers and when someone new posts elsewhere, we get suspicious. Welcome!

You're all exceedingly kind *looks around the room at the collection of pyrates and chuckles to himself*. (Spammer I am not...but I understand the concern. Thanks for letting me in RumbaRue.
