Btw, "savey" is supposed to mean "you get that" or somesuch. Strange, quite the same like Naruto's "Dattebayo", now that I think of it. Oh well... dont mind. ^^

    It's spelled "SAVVY".

    I've also never heard a pirate say "Blimey!" That's more of a British exclamation than anything a pirate would say, IMO.

    Enough already! Theres a fine line between being upset with a game feature and trolling.

    You know ... that would be really cool actually if the chatting system (not private messages) "translated" what people say into pirate speak. I know it would be a lot, but I think it could be done. Parlay?

    Oh, it could be done, but it would get *so* annoying after the initial humor wore off.  We considered it over lunch one day, and after the beer wore off we decided against it...

    realy,do you realy think pirates talked like that during those days ... ofcourse some did ,who didnt know how to keep themselves healthy and when they went out to sea they wouldnt last more than 2 weeks ,they would become scurvy and panic and fall flat on the ground.When you talk like that you talk like a bad pirate,and bad in bad sense,like not good at it.

    I don't know about pirates but I live in Plymouth, Devon and this is the way the natives speak now.
