Okay, don't tell me it is...

So why don't the people who keep bitching about the north being "happy fucking bunny land" quit bitching about it and -do- something about it?
But it's not supposed to be Allanak and rightfully -shouldn't- be it's a different type of society all together.

The fact that the north -has- an ecosystem is what really turns me on about it.

I completely agree that the south needs more added to create an ecosystem rather than just toning down the beasts...give them something to eat besides pcs maybe?

The 1 day char thing shouldn't matter...your char is supposed to have been around for a while IC, whether or not they have been played for 1 day or ten, playing intelligently or foolishly will still determine whether or not you will continue to live.
That's like saying your 1day old char, who lived in Tuluk their whole life, IC isn't supposed to know where The Sun-King's Sanctuary is because OOC they are only 1day old.
If your char possesses the skill and it is IC for -your char- to do what they do, then so be it.
