NEW UPDATE: Added an interface menu and now you can choose if you want automatic messages from for example addons like weakaurs to be translated or not. Also a moveable button!
Use /piratemode to toggle on or off the piratespeech OR press the button next to the chatbar. Use /piratesay directly to turn your text into piratespeech.
Made for 3.3.5 currently.
