My country has just one party but it has various factions within the party such as the moderates and fundamentalists who are Liberal and Conservative respectively. This is common in many single-party states.
People should be allowed to RP however they want. Nobody is forcing anybody to post in any RP or thread or to RP a certain way. If you don't like the way somebody is doing RP just don't read it and make your own thread instead.
Guest(s) Name(s): Rolfe DeWolfe and Baloo the Bear
Age(s): 35, 30
Accommodation: Darr'koen Resort
Speech At Execution: Yes
Requests: Baloo is addicted to KFC so we'll need some for him and Rolfe is powered by a nuclear fuel cell, so he might set off some alarms at the border.
If you are an esteemed genius, progressive leader of mankind or glorious comrade you most certainly enjoy LEGO and KFC.
What is your favorite LEGO theme? Do you like licensed themes or original ones better? My favorite is LEGO City. I have a really rockin' LEGO town with a powerful police...
I'm sorry but the Care Bears that secretly control Narnia would never allow us to join a blatantly evil organization. They are like the cute, fluffy version of the Illuminati that is secretly pulling the strings of the Narnian government.
Let's stay away from evil and Fascist names. If all you guys want is a blatantly evil punching bag for the DU then we shouldn't even bother with it. It will be doomed from the start and nobody would join it. I wouldn't join it if it was just some lame Axis rip-off.
It would kinda defeat the purpose of a competing organization if someone could be a member of the DU and the proposed alternate organization at once. To use the Cold War example nobody was in NATO and the Warsaw Pact at the same time. I think DU members should be allowed to be observer states...
The things that stick from a purely layman's perspective is climate, since nations that RP as tropical places could be sitting right next to arctic-themed nations in a very close area. Another thing is having large, established nations spring up out of thin air. A nation could quickly find a new...
A geologist would find it very hard to suspend disbelief regarding the map of The North Pacific. A historian or anthropologist would find it very hard to suspend disbelief regarding a lot of our Factbooks. On the other hand somebody who believes in ghosts would be able to suspend disbelief...
If you want reality don't RP. Go outside or watch a documentary. A lot of stuff like fantasy geography that has nothing to do with Earth or made-up countries that could never exist even with the craziest of alternate history timelines aren't realistic either.
The closest thing to a realistic...
Am I the only one who read the OP? McMasterdonia specifically brings up the idea of a competing organization in the OP. It can't be threadjacking if the OP brings it up as a specific topic of discussion.
Third paragraph, first sentence.
I think it would be doomed to fail and really cliche and dumb. While the DU would be the "serious" alliance, the evil alternate would be more of just a cheap joke. Somebody playing as say, an absolutist European monarchy isn't going to want to join what is just for "evil" nations. Same with...
Not all non-democratic nations are cartoonishly evil regimes. A lot of them are more benign things like absolute monarchies, Father Knows Best States, religious states and Socialist states.
The opposite to the DU shouldn't just be it's evil twin, it should be something regular nations might...
I think it should be fine as long as the other species don't have superpowers and abilities that makes them dramatically overpowered in the setting. If they are just mere mortal flesh and blood it doesn't really dramatically effect the story.
In my opinion having Baloo the bear in an RP would...
You should let dictatorships in the DU, maybe as permanent observer states or something. The way it is now a lot of nations are left out of the majority of RPs because they play as non-democratic countries.

I edited my posts to change the Fazbear robots into the more realistic Rock-afire ones. I might have missed a few things, but I think I got it for the most part.
I would retcon the Fazbear animatronics, and switch to the Rock-afire ones if you guys only want things that exist in real life. Robots that walk and navigate obstacles, like ASIMO exist as well so that isn't future time. They wouldn't have any powers though, so their uses for combat would be...
So a futuristic helicopter that looks like something aliens could only build is ok, but robots that exist in real life are not? Sounds unfair to me.
Allowing one futuristic thing, while not allowing another is stupid.
If you only want things that exist in real-life I could use the...
