How does time pass in RP? I know that tours exc. use real life dates, but is there a system for how characters age? Is ingame time just used for that? I know there are some acts on here that have apparently been around a long time and realeased tons of albums, but obviously the players haven't been here for 20 years or something.

I just use it as real time for everything. Some people age their characters differently though but I think the majority use real time.

i never really cared about the age thing. lol. I just wrote stuff like "it's been awhile" or "for many years" "several months" etc lol I don't think the age really matters too much, especially since everything in this game I would say is much more fast paced than real life musicians'/celebrities' lives.
