Yes, because eventually everyone will be on the same technological level. Therefore, making the strongest military the largest, which means that this game will end sometime with China being the world's uncontested military and industrial superpower.

Logically, countries strive to better themselves technologically. Also, if the time-line can go on to an undefined date then technology should be able to advance.

Britain, if you've ever been in a modern world RP, EVERYONE starts out at the same technological level and no one goes past it.

Starts out the same? Do you really consider all modern countries in the world on the same technological level? I'd like to see you explain that. Please, enlighten me as to how all countries are on the same level. Last I checked the United States has a Laser Tanbk in development that will likely enter service in the 2020 range, can anyone else in the world, possibly save the British, Chinese, French, and Russians, say that?

We wouldn't include stupid shit like lasers. It'd go to modern day, hence why it's called "Modern Time". All of my past RPs have been exactly like this: time does not progress and neither does technology, yet I see no one complaining there. Makes me think you guys are just whining because countries have larger populations than you.
And who gives a shit if someone becomes a huge superpower? That's what alliances are for. Stop bitching, it's all part of the RP.

Umm... All your past RP's have DIED. The farthest I remember was Blitz, which lasted like 8 Months in game.

Yep, and that gave you ample time to bitch about the technology system; which you didn't; and yet it's exactly on par/similar to this system.

Tech could advance very slowly. Also, I was thinking that new nations or 3rd world could gain various pre-era weapons. Like, should we advance technology to... what, say semi-automatic rifles (M1 Carbine, if I'm thinking right) then perhaps said nation could be able to purchase those and replace their bolt action with them.

Any prospect of a semi-automatic rifle is in 1930, if not 1940. That's 2 years and a month in real time. This RP is not going to last for 2 years, I'll be applying for colleges in 2 years.

WW1 tech doesn't really end until 1926 when France starts building monoplanes.

I think it should be able to advance past 1918, as long as it's RPd well, and isn't tech wanked or used unrealistically.
