my faction character has been siting at 11 month's old for 5 weeks now. obviously she should turn 1 any freaking day now (so i have thought the last week and a half) - why can't we know how many DAYS old as well as how many months? - either that, or a birthdate under their pic on the select screen.

You know, I had the same problem with my factions character this last month, it's darned annoying

Personally, I would like to know the exact age of my characters. Though, of course, some say the anticipation is the best

More age detail = more fun opportunities!

Already suggested:

- To detail even hour and second.
- To show celestial animal.
- To separate time spent in an area into another /time emote...

MithranArkanere, your knowledge knows no bounds. Thanks for the input!

Search is indeed every user's friend. But after your post I tried to do a search for 'age', 'character age' and 'birthday' and only found this thread.

It seems that WildmouseX actually came up with a title that's better suited for this discussion. Unless I'm not searching correctly?

I myself have always wanted the /age command to be more specific. It only makes sense, since the servers obviously know exactly when your character was made (I have had characters turn 1 in the middle of the day).

Lucky for me though, I was able to pinpoint my necromancer's birthday. All I did was I checked in the morning, and it said 11 months. Then checked later in the afternoon, at which point his age said 12 months. Just so happens that it's the 28th of December.

It's odd b/c the first month or two they DO show the number of days you are "2 months and 9 days old" type of thing. Why that can't carry on through the life of our toons is beyond me. Definitely a good idea.

Could we also get the age in the character select screen too? that would be nice.

/signed. I'm impatient and want to know. 11 months seems to last a long time for me!
