The idea that players new to the server "deserve" to have their character severely punished for not knowing details is not one I agree with. Sure, Thay is a ruthless, cold and cruel nation. But particularly in light of the fact that I am new here I hope that, should I fail to have memorized everything here in a week that some here have had years to assimilate, my character will not be ruthlessly beat down without so much as a tell from another player giving some sort of explanation.

Admittably, it is a pretty good way to learn, though, and it's not like it is you who is getting beat down, just your character. Ignorance is no excuse, afterall, and punishment of that ignorance could lead to some interesting interaction and then relationship between the punisher and punished.
That's my thoughts on it, at least.
