Title: Age differences
Post by: Quirk on March 08, 2004, 09:32:16 AM
Well, I'm curious how the age thing has been adjusted, but in response to spawnloser's question on the Ask the Staff forum: with a character older than 13, yet less than 30, I've found myself older rather than younger.

And yes, it might make for some interesting revisions of the past.

Yeah, I have been talking to a couple people and it seems that all characters' ages were not affected the same by this change.  Someone else aged...someone got younger by a larger amount than mine.  I for one have a problem...my character's background not matching his age any more is a bit of a problem, as I know it is for some other people as well, so I'm awaiting staff response here.

Unless that is only happening to new characters (been in the game for only a little bit), That seems like an unintentional bug to me (not that I'm saying people should bug it :P). From what I understand world time went by a lot faster then my character's age. Which always confused me how it should be roleplayed when your character was around for a major event that happened 100 years ago, yet your character is only 70 years old.

I'm glad they're making the effort to fix that though :) Some people said it was a code feature, but I always thought it was a bug.
