Largest NRPs Ever by post(Top 10)

A lot of NRPs are short lived, that's for sure. It's why I kind'a admire that you guys still have a thread kicking after five goddamned years.

@Shorticus

Yeah, compared to most RPs that seems around 2000 years.

Largest NRPs Ever by post(Top 10)

January 2011 is when PoW started. Here is our first thread for proof, and subsequent threads to show we've really been at it the entire time.. PoW didn't actually come from the old website, and I don't think any of us who moved from the other forums ever saw the old website. It's more like we starting on vidja game forums and kept getting in trouble, so we had to flee a couple of times. We all moved here just after the guild was rebuilt because one of our folk happened to know about this place.

It's hella funny that PoW comes in second place for biggest NRP in the RPG tho, since we only have 15 pages of IC.

@Vilageidiotx

I mean after 2 years of activity that seems to be expected
I didn't know Sporum had an RP presence, lol.

Precipice of War actually existed for YEARS beyond that and comes from the old website.

As far as I can tell, it's the result of patience and dedication and has existed for... Uh, I'm not the person to ask. But it's existed since basically the 1300's. BC. Real life.

It's a long-lasting RP is what my exaggerated saying is intended to mean.

But really, there's no contest to be the longest running or most-posts-in-thread roleplay. And remember that a TON of those posts in each thread are gonna be OOC posts.

@Shorticus

I know, I'm just trying to compile the lists.
Cause everything must be in a list (For Matthew Santoro to steal it).
I'm not trying to make it a contest anyway, just thought it would be cool to share it knowledge with everyone.

Hello Ancestor, I am what you evolve into.
Ignore the gun.

On The Edge (Pre-WW3 NRP)

I'm noticing a trend of Nationalism making a big resurgance in Politics in this timeline

@Nerevarine

I'm new to this board, but from what I've read this happens in nearly ever Semi-Near Future NRP.
I'll investigate more into this later.

@thorgili Interesting

A New Age (Semi-Apocalyptic RP)

Intrigued.

On The Edge (Pre-WW3 NRP)

Nation Name: The Republic of Quebec / Le République Quebecois

National Flag:


Description of Government:
National Socialist nation-state, lead by the Parti de libération du Québec, a militarist faction that took hold of the Quebec's government several decades ago. The government operates under a one-party system. Elections are held to determine the occupation of various official positions, but only party members are able to vote. Entrance into the Parti is by invitation only, so as to preserve the group's ideological purity. The current president is René Mulcair.

Side in Conflict (Pro RoA, Pro USA, Neutral):
Quebec has officially announced its support for the RoA, but only because it gives Quebec an excuse to make military advances on the USA, and expand the nation's territory. In reality, the only thing the Parti hates more than Anglophones are Muslims and African-Americans. They'd be just as happy to see all of America wiped off the face of the Earth.

Demographics:
The Republic of Quebec is almost entirely Francophonic Caucasian, with official surveys reporting "98% racial and cultural purity". Actual estimates put it closer to 75% Francophonic Caucasian, 17% Anglophonic Caucasian, and 8% other.

Culture:
"All printed language is mandated to be in French, and French only. All public speech is required to be in French, and French only. All business is to be conducted in French, and French only. For the sake of our nation's purity, and the preservation of our culture, please report any breach of our sacred laws to your nearest police station."

The nation is overwhelmingly Roman Catholic, but a strong Protestant community remains active across the region, in spite of ongoing persecution.

History:
Since Canada's creation, strong tensions existed between the regions once known as Upper Canada, and Lower Canada. Violence between the French and English was constantly springing up, and no compromise could be seen. Canada eventually achieved a long period of peace, now known as the "Bilingual Golden Era", that lasted from the turn of the century, until the 1960's, when Front de libération du Québec formed. With their rise to power, the country was plagued with a series of horrific terrorist attacks. Countless civilians died in the bombings. Into the 1970's, after a decade of carnage, the Canadian government managed to arrest and kill all of the FLQ's leading members. The remaining members, now leaderless, branched off and formed the Bloc Quebecois and the Parti Quebecois. Over the next several decades, these two organizations worked hand-in-hand to drum up anti-English sentiment, and enrage the masses. Finally into the 2020's, as the Canadian economy took a serious downturn following another stock-market crash, they won a majority in the province of Quebec, and even became the official opposition of Canada's National Parliament. With so much control of the government, the attacks began again, this time backed by hundreds of government officials. Without the sufficient resistance from the federal government, the Front made their victorious return. After the death of countless Canadian officials, including Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, then serving his fourth term, Canada crumbled, and the nation-state of Quebec was free to claim the surrounding provinces.

Now Canada lays in shambles, with the mighty military-state of Quebec planted firmly in the middle of the continent, looking hungrily at its neighbours to the south.

Important Person(s):
President Rene Mulcair
Prime Minister Pierre Laurier
Minister of Defense, Jean-Luc LeBlanc
Minister of Foreign Affairs and International Development, Jean-Marc Cote
Minister of English Relations, Jaques Levesque

Accepted
Also, four terms of Trudeau, that would suck for Canada.
