Wouldn't really work. The only people that would be there for any
length of time would be the old players being mentors. With such a
high turnover, it would be a very unrealistic continent and wouldn't
teach new players any more than the basic interface, as the more
interesting stuff wouldn't exist there.

I don't think there is really a problem to be fixed here - The number
of players is increasing, so new players obviously can learn the game
well enough on the real continents. Prehaps the number of players
could increase faster, but that's not important enough for this much
work, IMO.
