🍊 Beware of scurvy! 🍊
Grab ye a flagon o' ale and haul yerself a seat if ye can find one. Let’s parley 'bout ways t' make this vessel proper seaworthy. Ye’ll find that the meta discussion be goin' here... RULES 1. NO SQUAWKING! No talking about this board elsewhere 2. Moids will be keelhauled. "Scrotefoiling" is not against the rules. 3. All thread OPs must be written in a pirate fashion with board theming 4. Discussion and debate is allowed but excessive hate and infighting isn't 5. NSFW belongs spoilered and in its own thread. No 3D as per website rules. 6. Don't be a scallywag. If privateers unanimously see your post as foolish, it is subject to moderation.
>>12142 These have literally been the implied rules since day 0 what are you on about? >>12115 Great stuff First Mate!
>>12154 it would be nice if they actually banned moids
>>12162 they do though >>12017 >>11822
>>12117 I kept the no squawking rule on the list since it's been a culture mainstay on this board. It isn't enforceable, but I feel like it's a part of our board history. >>12142 As >>12154 said, most of these are rules that have been around since the board started. I wanted to keep Capmin's original ruleset since it's done well so far. I added the last rule because we are small and for smaller communities, it's usually easier to have a general consensus on choices we make. Scrotefoiling has not been an issue here. If someone got banned for being a moid but they are indeed a true privateer there is a ban appeal option.
With no additional amendments to the rules, I will consider the current list final. I'll add it to the meta OP post. If there are any suggestions, please feel free to add them here. I read one matey say there may be interest in a general offtopic chatting thread instead of the segmented topic threads. This seems like a good idea to me! If you pirates would be interested in some non IB related chit chat, feel free to start a thread for it. The waters are calm enough here that it would be easy to keep up with.
what are ye' interests and hobbies?
Sorry to be negative, especially if any mateys enjoy this, but I already did not understand the appeal of diamond painting because to me it seems like it just leaves people with large completed pixelated canvases that then get piled up at the thrift store because no one wants them in their house. Tonight, I have just learned of "book bedazzling" which seems to be what diamond painters move on from and honestly, I understand it even less. It seems like it would be a hassle to store (the rhinestones might indent any plain softcover books it touches) or read these books (have to worry about the rhinestones falling off), and in many of the examples I've seen, it doesn't even look good. Some covers end up being so pixelated that you can barely make out what the image/title are, and yet I found listings on etsy where people are asking like $150 for a bedazzled book. Who is buying that, if anyone?
>>12244 I feel like this is for a super specific type of book girl, and it's strictly for display and not use. Like the type of people buying every different variation of the Taylor swift special vinyl releases.
>>12247 That would make sense. I personally hate rhinestone items because once they start falling off, it looks awful
This might sound retarded, but I really love driving as a hobby and not like racing or anything, but just driving around aimlessly/going for a drive. I just got back from a short one and I'm already wanting to go again. It feels a bit bad because I know it's a waste of gas and I'm putting miles on my car and polluting the earth when I do it, but it's really so relaxing for me to just drive about in my car and listen/sing along to music and enjoy the scenery.
>>13168 Me too, matey! I love driving. Windows down, nice music playing, enjoying the freedom and the scenery. I love going through those drive thru car washes then going on a scenic drive through the countryside. Do you prefer music, podcast, or nothing on the radio?
You gather round the well stocked galley, sharing tales far and wide.
>>13163 but i want wc NOW
>>13161 but that's the POINT of an anonymous messageboard. why post on chans if you're just going to fixate over who is posting. it's funny to laugh at obvious samefags and failtrolls but investigating every post is just a buzzkill
ban nimufoiling
>>13162 Honestly after taking a vacation from IB adminship it's really tempting to not pick up the mantle again (not nimu)
LC /meta/ looking pretty wild as usual
Keep yer weapons back in the ships, parley is in place.
home sweet home
>>13153 Can I come over
>>13154 sure you can take the bed over there. I'll take the floor
>>13156 This feels like one of those pics that gives you a stroke
>>13142 >>13143 Tbh, I don't like that she dictated to the userbase what the boardtan would be. I feel it should have started with the users, like when they were designing the little toad or whatever. Instead it's knock off Harry Potter because nimu is a control freak

ahoy me-nonnies! this be for all ye' bilge and whatnot.
decided to try the black cat drink at starbucks just because it looked cute. big mistake. tastes horrible. the chocolate cat ears were cute and tasted nice but that was the only good part. wouldn't mind more cute themed drinks but i'd like them to actually be edible in the future. ended up not finishing this one it was so bad
>>12802 I've been wanting to try it, but I'm afraid of the sweet novelty drinks. What does it actually taste like?
>>12815 hard to describe exactly, I think it was supposed to taste like chocolate cake, but to me it seemed more like licorice maybe mixed with a chemical grape flavor?
I really like the irc thread. I'll still post in this one sometimes though. >>12819 Sounds gross, I'm sorry you had to drink that.
>>12977 I hope their next novelty drink tastes good. I like the idea of novelty drinks (and foods) as something fun to look forward to and change things up with, but I need them to actually taste ok.
We be discussin' and speculatin' on the fine topic o' milk, arr! In honor of our dear Rules-chan, who first volunteered to be the board owner, let's remember to put the cow's name in the Name field, aye. If ye happen to find a cow that be so popular and beloved by the nonnies, then ye be havin' the freedom to create a general thread just for that fine bovine! It be a great honor to have a thread dedicated to a cow that has captured the hearts of many, arr! So if ye think a cow deserves its own special place, go ahead! In the vast sea of general-generals, such as the Trans General, Cartoon Industry General, Breadtube General, Celebricows, and the like, our nonnas be empowered to create threads as they see fit. If they have a hankerin' for a new general thread, they be free to create it, arr!
There's no thread about it on lc but I've been having fun with the reckless ben/ lego/ community drama. For background, a youtuber named Reckless Ben made a series of youtube videos trying to get a family money a company owed them from legos. Since then the videos have spawned a brand new youtube ecosystem. There's several new channels who get 6 digit view counts just because of these and from this brand new drama. She's been my favorite in terms of coverage because she's more facts oriented. https://www.youtube.com/live/tt-Mp2AhVmA Has anyone else been keeping up?
>>12694 I thought this would embed. F.
>>12694 I've not been following it, but watching the video you posted, I really hate his hat
>>12696 Me too, and he's just as annoying as his hat
This H3 milk is the best in a long time, as much as it sucks for Hila. I don't care about anyone in that whole internet corner but watching this nasty scrote and his nlog getting dragged with no sympathy is extremely funny.
Yar mateys. 'Tis boring to sail on the seven seas without a sailors' tune to pass the time. Share yer favorite songs and lyrics in this thread.
>>11241 Pretty art but such a nothing love story. Hard to fit any kind of interesting or impactful love story into two minutes but really, this isn't even trying to do that. A love story lives or dies on how much you humanize its characters, and there's nothing to grab onto here...

love me pasta, simple as
Made me think of this place
>>7177 Me on the left (I'm a pirate)
just saw picrel. it reminded me of a time I traveled abroad, had just gotten to my hostel the night before. my first morning there, I decide to go for a walk around the hostel to see what's nearby/find a bakery for breakfast. It starts lightly raining, so no big deal really, but an older woman chased me down and offered up a spare umbrella to me. I tried to politely decline at first, but she was really insistent. I ended up carrying that umbrella the rest of my trip. It makes me happy to think about this woman. I hope she's doing well!

Ahoy! The legends of Pirate-tan and her friends be immortalized here in this gallery. Observe the legendary visages and share tales of the souls Pirate-tan has crossed paths with on her voyages! Any legendary board-tans and related characters belong in these halls, so long as they be chummy with our beloved pirate mascot. And do be wise to keep any unsavory images spoilered.
Elsie in Courn's style kek
Original art from another privateer. Thanks, matey.
>>12692 idk about the other mateys but id rather this go in the containment thread...
