Talk:Pirate King

List of candidates
Why was the list of candidates removed? I think it is quite important to know who are possible Pirate Kings, and the information is canon. El Chupacabra 11:01, 14 July 2008 (UTC)


 * Its been tempting the fate of speculation for a long while now and after too many have have been placed over time we'd best to not allow idiots the chance to keep posting. Besides, there is no need to list every candidate. While its cannon, its too excessive (yes and I know I spelt it wrong). We're an encyclopedia, not a fan site. The trouble with this site is we tend to forget that. --One-Winged Hawk 16:15, 14 July 2008 (UTC)

Going with the storyline, I can't help but see only Luffy becoming the Pirate King anyway. lol `-` Sephirona 16:56, 14 July 2008 (UT C)

Although I happen to agree with everyone on this topic, I agree most with El Chupacabra. Why was the list of candidates removed? They were all valid, strong and make sense to the current story line. Those were all people that were candidates, and good candidates, in my opinion. I say we take a vote and try to bring the list of candidates back. It made the page worth looking at and spiced things up. Having just a long winded explanation of what the pirate king actually is defined as makes it one of the most boring pages on this website. I don't care if it's supposed to be informative. Before it was informative and fun, now it's just boring to read.


 * Same reason as wikipedia removing theirs. Such lists are little use.  All we basically need to know:


 * What the PK is and who the last was.
 * Yonkou are the closet with WB the closest of the Yonkou.
 * The great pirate age and struggle to be next PK.
 * Supernoves.


 * N need for an extensive list. Though its not been treated as bad as the wikipedian one was, you couldn't keep off the Speculation. If someone finds a better way to handle it resulting in little room for those nicks of speculation to creep in, I'm not going to stop them putting it back in.  For now, at least until its revised, keep it off.  --One-Winged Hawk 19:46, 16 July 2008 (UTC)
