Samurai Pros adn Cons:

Pros:
-Big freaking sword
-Cool Clothing Line
-Towns people either respect or are scared of you
-You get paid to rome around the streets and make sure everything is as it should be until there is a war
-You get to eat damn good food
-There is no sneakyness

Cons:
-Get pwned by ninjas IF your a guard
-You can die
-You can't go see a geisha whenever you want
-you have to sleep on thin mats with a dozen others in the room...
(Depending what rank you are :P)

Additional:

Pros: You can freaking cut peoples heads off if you think your sword feels like it!

And Geisha are the non-consenting ones. Samurai were allowed Escorts whenever they wanted (women or little boys) and paid in Koku, units of rice.

If Ninja's win this poll it will be a travesty of justice. A TRAVESTY, I SAY!!!

For me:

modern pirates > modern ninjas
swashbuckling pirates < feudal ninjas

Eh, I dunno. Rouge ninja who becomes a pirate. There we go.

As the speaker of the house for the ninja group I declare you change the poll back for simply not thinking of "Fifteen men on a dead man's chest" for your use of altering the tally.
