The problem with ninjas is that they have no style. Where are the purple hats with big feathers? When was the last time you saw a ninja with a peg leg or foul-mouthed parrot?

Ninjas don't have swag either. What's the point if you can't have swag?

Oh take it easy. I haven't rigged any polls since the time I won the avatar of the month award (which I never received).

Does anybody know how the ninja vs pirate thing started. I remember way back in the day with PVPonline, while Scott Kurtz wasn't working on the comic for some reason, he had the NVP (Ninja vs Pirate) filler comics, but I don't think that was the origin of this...

PS, I don't see how pirates could stand a chance.

Being a pirate isn't just about fighting. Sure, they fight passionately, but they love and live passionately too. Ninjas don't get that. They're hopeless.

Ninja > Pirates because ninjas don't suffer from scurvy.

I mean how cool is it to have rotting gums? See, even IF ninjas suffered from scurvy, they'd still have the masks to hide those hideous gums. Therefore, Ninja > Pirates.

I read a webcomic, I think it's CounterCulture, here's the part with Ninja and Pirates, it's rather funny:

Yeah I mean, what's more intimidating? A fool in a dress with a slender sword? Or a Guy with raggy, hand made clothes that may, or may not, match; with a freaking huge axe, or a cutlass and pistoles; or better yet... a maul Very Happy Until you've had someone chase after you with a 20kg maul, swinging it around like it weighted nothing... there's really nothign scarier then that Razz

I've got a way to either help settle this debate, or help push it to a point where we'll lose interest before ever coming near any kind of agreement on this.

Let's examine the visual coolness factor of our fantastic friends, shall we?
Go find a cool picture of a [ninja/pirate] and post it here.
Just a few things first:
- It can't be helped, I know alot of ninja fans are also anime fans (I'll be damned if you can find a picture of a ninja IRL), so I'd like to limit this to one ninja pic per anime (we don't need five hundred fucking pictures of Kakashi and Sasuke and Naruto and Jiraiya an..)
- one pic per user
- one pic per [ninja/pirate]. If you find a picture (of the SAME [ninja/pirate] in your original post) that you think is cooler, you can edit the post and change the picture.
- be bandwidth conscious. If the picture you find is HUGE, post a link instead of using the img tags, because otherwise two things are happening:
1) You're slowly leeching the bandwidth of the host
2) You're slowly killing the viewers bandwidth. I'm sure some peeps are still on dialup, but aside from that I've got a huge hard drive to fill and every precious second of downloading counts Wink

I think that's it for rules, let's go crazy.

I nominate my new buddy, Kurogane:
EDIT: Well crap, looks like these guys don't enjoy remote linking ^^

Yeah, and one shot of the pistol and the ninja is dead. Or, as Cornflake so wonderfully mentioned, there's the cannon sitting on the boats.
And how can ninjas walk on water? We're talking real, physical possibilities here, please?

No, I'm quite certain that ninjas existed, just not in the same way Kishimoto depicts them. Certainly they didn't have magic powers, and the shuriken were mostly useless, they still did some pretty neat stuff.

Being trained for something does not necessarily mean one is good at that particular task.
Example: Greek hopolites were excellent defensive soldiers. They trained for such a task. But a crazed teenager with an AK-47 could still wipe them all out.
That's the kind of thing we've got here. Ninjas are great at what they do, but they cannot compete with pirates who have cannon & pistols.

Oh, well if the ninjas get "uber godlike speed", I'm going to give the pirates uber anteater-like breath, and it will nausiate the ninjas no matter what. And the zone of nausiation is infinate in radius. And it works infinately fast too. And actually, it doesn't just nausiate them, it kills them. Yeah, that would be better.

You can't just say a ninja has uber godlike speed. That's ridiculous.

oh and i give my ninja a uber ward that protects him against all offensive and defensive attacks even if it says they hit no matter what because i said all attacks. i also give him an ocular implant that kills all pirates instantly! Laughing Twisted Evil

lol If pirates have anteater-like killing breath then ninja's just have rebound sheilds which deflect anything pirate made that touches them. THEN all PIRATES would be dead :lol"

I dunno... I mean there are plenty of times when I accidentially step on the short people who are trying to sneak up on me... I still think pirates are cooler.

The thing about hobbits on their own is that they aren't very good at fighting, whereas ninjas and pirates are trained killers... kinda... The point being that even in his natual state of inebreation a pirate is more then capable of dealing with a Hobbit (or a ninja Wink)

Did you know:

In ninja clans, it was common for a man to have 10 children. It was also common for 9 of these children to die in training.

Ninja training began at 6 months with the parent forcefully dislocating each of the baby's joints daily. By puberty, a ninja should be able to dislocate a given joint at will.

The saya (sheath) of a ninja's weapon doubled as a sort of blowgun. If the ninja became disarmed, they'd blow into a hole at the end of the saya to blow clouds of powder into the enemy's face in order to escape.

Did you also know:

A Ninja might actually poison the target as well as him(/her)self. Part of the Ninja's training involved taking small amounts of various poisons. By allowing themselves to be poisoned as well, the target still dies and the Ninja gets very sick. Who would suspect a victim of being the murderer?

Ninja didn't use their shuriken as much as they were popularly believed to. In reality, a thrown shuriken doesn't fly very straight at all, and was mostly used to distract someone or slow down pursuers. (While it was unlikly to get sniped by a shuriken, most people would still think twice before running into one).

Samurai are cool - but they wouldn't beat a ninja on ninja terms.

1 on 1, it's no contest to the samurai, but what makes the ninja deadly is that they choose to fight only on their own terms.

I really want to point out that ninjas are completely useless vs. pirates as teh pirates will sit back in their nice pirate ship and blow the crap out of anything they see with cannon fire long before it can get close though to do anything.

Pirates have cannon. Pirates are well trained in the use of cannon. Ninjas have no way of stopping grapeshot. Let me tell ya, a round of grapeshot to the anywhere is gonna take a nice big chunk out of you... I don't think a ninja could survive that and still fight...

This is really getting quite silly, but I'm ok with that.

I don't think ninjas would be comfortable at sea. They would wait for the pirates to make port and off them stealthily during the shore leave.

The ninja is the master of assassination, in which there is no actual combat taking place, just the kill.

Obviously a fight between pirates and ninjas would result in both sides being wiped out. Since the ninjas are better fighters they would easily kill all the pirates, then global warming occurs and kills all the ninjas.

Food and water for as long as a year can be stored on board, and when the pirates do eventually need to go restock they can go to a pirate friendly port without ninjas... and cannon rounds and gun powder don't get used unless you're actively killing ninjas Very Happy

Salt pork and Salt beef keep very long times, fruit is more problematic, but concentrates fruit juice (like lemon or lime juice) lasts quite long too; and when added to grog keeps scurvy at bay.

As for sneaking aboard at night, that's what sentries are for; or even just sailing back and forth so that the ninja's can't simply swim to the boat.

Pirates=Old School but still beat Ninjas

Post subject: 

Pirates are cool, but being that I, myself am a ninja, ninjas win. For many good reasons, and for even more not so good reasons.

and the dwarves vs. elves i present:

Dwarves should win, except the laws of Hollywood state that the pretty boys can't lose. Thus elves would beat dwarves simply because the have orlando bloom and hes not allowed to lose (did you see him kill the oliphant?! RIDICULOUS). Anyways, IMO dwarves are cooler cuz there funny and tell you stuff instead of friggin cryptics like legolas going "That's no orc horn". plus dwarves have the power of wielding hefty axes. Hefty axe > elvish toad sticker. Im pretty sure a dwarf could tank all the pins the elves throw at em. So while dwarves should win, elves win by default because of the pretty boy law stated above.

Captain Henry Morgan was a good pirate.

From answers.com

His operations were always marked by brutality and debauchery, but were sometimes executed with skill against great odds. Sent (1672) as a prisoner to England on complaints of piracy, he soon became a hero, was knighted (1673), and was made lieutenant governor of Jamaica, where he spent the rest of his life and was acting governor (1680-82).

Ack, i whont some real debate so here gose somthing:

I think ninja are better b/c unlike piraites who use burt force and losts of men they are highly trained and use few peoleop to sealty do the job. Witch makes me think they are more effsient. Harder to find so harder to get revengen on and you lose less resorces/men per atack. Tho on the other side of that if u do lose a ninja it is going to hurt alot more then losing a few pirates. My bet that is a ninja could take a pirate one on one but when do u ever see just one pirate?

What if we had a pirate ship filled with ninjas? So we whould have ninja pirates that saild the seas and ninja looted other ships in the night. They whould be unstopable!!! HAHAHHAHA!

well u see. thats y there are stow aways, people dont always notice those, i guess. so pirates exercise stealth when another ship is docked on land, i suppose.

I know combat is not there main style of attack but as long as pirates live on ships in the water, ninjas can't touch them and if ninjas do get close to a pirates ship, the pirates have cannons. But if ninjas did fight in combat there no match for guns.

Considering most ninhas don't live in areas where there aucatly where pirates or have boats or live on/under the sea the same could be side about pirates touching ninjas unless they where to leave there boats and run threw atachent chaina/jappen area.

Also ninjas and priates did not exists in the same time periodes. If you where to put them in the same you whould have to upgrade the ninjas weaponds. But even if u did'nt they whould still have there statrs, smoke bombs and other fun tools. Can't shoot what you can't see.

You seem to believe that a ninja would have to go to the ship to get anything done.

Furthermore, let's just clear up the ninja image. What does a ninja look like? Possibly Asian, dressed in black, face mostly covered with a mask? Maybe. If it's dark, and they want to blend in with the darkness (but even then, it'd probably be just really dark blue or green).

But did ninjas do everything at night? Heck no. If they lived by those rules, they'd have only kicked half as much ass. They can take care of business whenever necessary.

He cant even see the ninja cause hes half blind and cant catch up with ninja cause he misses a leg. Ninja on the other hand is capable of making moves that are hard to follow. What is a pirates power? Getting drunk? and relying on help to save him? Face it guys, when dueled fairly, ninja would their @$$. A pirate can never solely defeat a ninja.

I'm not entirely sure about that.

The culture of Japan & China developed very similarly in parallel (with some contact, of course), but there was never an emergence of ninja, as it were.

That's just how a lot of compat & subterfuge was done until the bushido code appeared in Japan and made the dishonorable style of killing different from the norm.

Except when the peg leg was a surgical procedure willingly undertaken by the pirate(s) in question. Pistol leg, anyone?

Unfortunately, in most cases, the surgical procedure is willingly undertaken by a ninja on the pirate(s) in question.

Pirates all the way. Ninjas are just weapons, tools. Sure, ninjas kick ass, but I can be a pirate and and i can kick ass and ENJOY IT! (while knocking back some crazy alchaholic beverage)

Vikings! Vikings are better then pirates and ninjas combined!

Holy necromancer!
Anyway pirates are way cooler, ninjas commit seppuku at the sight of pirates. Plus Johnny Depp was a pirate, you can't beat Johnny Dep!

Author:  Cervantes [ Sun Mar 18, 2007 4:18 pm ]
Post subject:  RE:Ninjas or Pirates?

Uh, I'm pretty sure seppuku is more of a samurai thing, and less of a ninja thing. Besides, seppuku is committed in response to one's shame. Seeing a pirate has nothing to do with shame.

Author:  CodeMonkey2000 [ Sun Mar 18, 2007 4:32 pm ]
Post subject:  RE:Ninjas or Pirates?

Seppuku is a Japanese thing in general. And ninjas fear pirates, and fear is shameful, so they commit seppuku Razz

Post subject:  RE:Ninjas or Pirates?

*sigh* still on the Pirates vs. Ninjas. Vikings are where it's at; not only did they inspire the lesser englishmen to become pirateish later in history but they are so much more wonderfully violent and clever then ninjas! Oh; and they managed to rape half of england, which is a pretty cool feat in my book Wink

hear hear! Vikings really were pretty cool. Though I thought they were excluded from this poll! Might need a slight modification to the poll Razz

Ninjas fear(ed) Samurai. They became Ninja so they could kill.

Fear isn't shameful. Fear keeps you on your toes.

Ninja win by far. I don't see to many pirates who ever have more than 1 foot off the ground.
