And I am posting it here because it is quite well written and clearly explains how do get the title (and a pirate outfit). I know the author irl and he gave me permission.

The Complete Guide to Bloodsail Admiral Title

1. As some of you know or don't know in the new patch 3.0 if you complete the quest Quest: Avast Ye, Admiral! - Thottbot: World of Warcraft you will get the hat and the new title Bloodsail Admiral.


In this guide I will show you the easiest and fastest way to getting the Hat and the new title.

INTRODUCTION

The Bloodsail Admiral title is not an easy title to get most of you will need to kill over 1000 guards its a boring grind but in my opinion its worth every bit of time you put into it. In this guide I will show you ways to solo, group and raid Booty Bay.

GETTING STARTED

The best way to do this (NON RAID) and fastest is to get a group of 3 people with 1 healer. If you can get a good raid of 20 the rep will fly, but sometimes its hard to get that many people.

Things you will need are lots of water (if you want to do this in 1 or 2 nights) and a repair bot (if you can use one.) and swim speed potions, mana potioins and health potions, you will die and get ganked by horde/alliance and you will have to live with it.

HATED TO HOSTILE

This is the hardest part of this grind. If you are at 0/36000 (Some of you are) you will need to kill 1,440 Booty Bay Bruisers. Each time you kill a Bruiser you will lose 125 rep from Booty Bay and gain 25 rep with Bloodsail.

Lets get started. If you are going to solo this is the best way to take some of the guards on 1v1 with out pulling any other guards.



Pull the left guard up into the graveyard and its out of the way of other guards do the same with the guard on the right.



2 Guards patrol the walkway going into Booty Bay pull one at a time out to the graveyard and kill them.



You can pull this guard to you, look out for the pat from behind!



This guard just pull back and kill, after that you can kill McGavan and a guard will come after killing him

After you are done with killing them go out to the entrance and repeat, this is what I did when my friend was gone and it was just me.

Group of 2 or 3
When you are still at Hated with Bloodsail you will still be friendly+ with Booty Bay, the best way to do this is with a group of 2 or 3 and run in and kill the quest givers and other npc this will pull guards, also killing the other faction. If you are in a group of 2 I would not recommend going over 6 guards. You WILL need a healer if you want to go fast.

After you pick up enough guards you think you can kill, DON'T MOVE if you move any more you will get more guards. This is why you don't want to go over 3 people you just get to many guards at one time. (You don't want to go into the INN if you go into the INN with only 3 people it spells death!)

If you have a raid just go balls out on the city, not much for tips but just kill every horde/alliance.

Getting from hated to hostile will take a lot of time. Most of you will need to kill 1000+ guards. This part will test you if you really want to get the title. Just keep killing guards, you don't have to worry about guards popping up just yet.

HOSTILE TO UNFRIENDLY TO NEUTRAL

Getting to unfriendly only takes 120 kills and another 120 to neutral! This would be a good time if you wanted to solo some but still the group of 2-3 works best.

At this point you might be Hated with Booty Bay. If you just stand in Booty Bay a guard will appear. So this is the best place to stand when Hated with Booty Bay. Else just keep killing guards/NPC until hated with Booty Bay.



At this spot the guards wont stop coming out. If they do just kill a quest giver fast. If you find that you are oom or have lots of guards, just jump of the side and pop a swim speed potion.

Doing this method will get you 120 kills fast. Again don't move to far because you will pick up more and more guards as you go. 1 guard will spawn for every member you have in your group.

After you hit unfriendly just keep doing this until neutral and you are almost done! You will need 240 kills in all to get to neutral just keep grinding!

NEUTRAL TO FRIENDLY

Almost done! Just 6000 more rep to grind. At this point you are 0/36000 with Booty Bay, just keep doing the same strategy as before, and again going any where in Booty Bay will agro guards.

After getting to friendly take a break drink some water and get ready for the last part! You will need to do the quest Quest: Avast Ye, Admiral! - Thottbot: World of Warcraft.

FRIENDLY TO Bloodsail Admiral!

Go out to 30,91and talk to Fleet Master Firallon to get the quest Avast Ye, Scallywag, then get Avast Ye, Admiral

ALMOST DONE! Just need to kill Baron Revilgaz and Fleet Master Seahorn. Just work your way up to them with your group. Don't go to fast take your time.

The best way to do this is find someone who is still friendly or above to help kill them with you, so they can walk past all the guards.After you kill them jump off the side, go turn in the quest to Fleet Master Firallon, and GRATZ! You are done go sleep eat and what ever else you need to do because you will have spent a long ass time on this!

Completing your Pirate Regalia

I just want to say, I'm surprised no one has come up with a complete pirate outfit yet, so I think I will post my outfit (which I find very cool :-P ) up here

This is what I wear as a pirate and where to get it all:

Head: [Bloodsail Admiral's hat] Source: Quest from Bloodsails when reaching friendly
Neck: Anything (Not shown)
Shoulder: [Shadow Council mantle of _______] Source: Any level 65-67 mob in outland, usually the twilight camp (or whatever) in nagrand that is south of Burning Blade ruins, or this can usually be found on the AH
Back: Being a caster I have [Ruby Drape of the Mysticant] from kara which I also use with my normal gear. Now, I don't think most guilds will simply give up an item of that quality to someone just because they want it for a pirate outfit, so a good replacement for that would be the [Bloodlust Cape] which drops off any mob in azshara or felwood (which can also be found on the Auction House)
Chest: [Bloodsail Shirt] Source: Reward from reaching neutral with Bloodsail Buccaneers
Shirt: None
Tabard: None
Wrist: Anything (Not shown)
Hands: None
Belt: [Bloodsail Sash] Source: Reward from reaching neutral with Bloodsail Buccaneers
Legs: [Bloodsail Pants] Source: Reward from reaching neutral with Bloodsail Buccaneers
Feet: [Bloodsail Boots] Source: Reward from reaching neutral with Bloodsail Buccaneers
Trinkets / Rings: Anything (Not shown)
Weapons: Now, for the weapons, You can chose whichever weapon you like to fit your outfit, as there are many different types of Cutlas/Scimitar/very-pirate-looking weapons, however, I reccomend the [Cruel Barb] from Edwin VanCleef in the deadmines (which level 70s can probably farm them nonstop until you get one), which is the weapon that I currently use. However, if you don't want to go through the trouble of farming Deadmines for the 10% drop rate on the CB, I reccomend the [Light Scimitar] which can drop off any level 30-37 mob (usually in Stranglethorn Vale). This weapon is actually also on the Auction House on my server alot for about 35-50 silver each. Being a caster, I can't dual-wield these, so I wouldn't know how it would look. I personally just like the single weapon, so It really doesn't matter to me.



Well, that's my pirate outfit, I hope you like it!
