Readers,

Classic-Pirates.com is currently undergoing some scheduled maintainance. During this time, some features of the site may be unavailable for use, however Pirates forum operations will proceed as usual.

We thank you for your cooperation in the matter, and we will endeavour to have the site returning to normal as soon as possible.

“Last words, either way”

Sunday, September 27th, 2009

General Armendariz, the brickflick genius pressed into the Classic-Pirates.com crew, has treated us with another oscar-winning motion picture: Shipyard Shenanigans, Episode One: “Last words, either way.” It tells the humorous story of a man’s last words as his ship crumbles into the sea – but I won’t spoil the surprise; be sure to grab some popcorn, turn off the lights, and switch on the show!

You may notice many familiar faces starring in the flick, Captain Zuloo, Mister Phes, and Captain Blackmoor among them. Some viewers may wonder, “What is this Shipyard Shenanigans?” Well, we have the same question for you! Sail by the Classic-Pirates.com forum and tell Armendariz your thoughts and opinions.

Happy Birthday Bonaparte!

We have a new Pirates Regulator!

Wednesday, August 12th, 2009

Erdbeereis is now a Pirates Regulator

After our Pirate Moderator Phred left because of his work and studies and because of the constant growth of both the forum and Classic-Pirates.com, we decided to appoint a fresh Pirate Regulator to help out Slyowl and the rest of the team.

Erdbeereis, as Shipyard Master, and because of his dedication and forum knowledge, was just an obvious choice!

So, head over to the Classic-Pirates.com Forum and welcome Erdbeereis!

With Mister Phes taking a break, the dedicated Classic-Pirates.com team has been working harder than ever to maintain our wonderful site, and strong at the helm, was Vice Admiral Zorro! Now, Vice Admiral Zorro is Admiral Zorro. Not much changes other than his rank – he’s as dedicated as anyone ever was!

So hurry on over to the Pirate forum to congratulate Zorro on his promotion to Admiral before he heads off to start another great Classic-Pirates.com project!

We’re back!
