Sure, but perhaps for slightly too long, it has been mirroring slightly too boring time frames?

Re: potato paradise
Is it wrong? No, it's just a freedom of playstyle in action.
Would I like to play a character in such a community? I guess it depends... but for most cases it would be OMGWTFRunForYourLife kind of a reaction.

Re: potato paradise
I have used this phrase many times in the past ten years in game when possible drama might arise... I said, "It's better than farming potatoes all our lives and having nothing better to talk about". Some days we all want to just get along and collect food together. Other days (or characters) we need more excitement, more conflict. Potato paradise is great for all those free form role players that are into interpersonal relationships that revolve around spuds but that can only keep your attention (as a player) so long.
