Honestly that was one of my first thoughts when I saw this, someone is going to draw one of those. People love trying to be offensive in something that barely allows communication. I remember seeing some MMORPG that had no chat where players would log in and just stand in the shape of a swastika.
Makes me wonder if it's reasonable to write an algorithm to detect that.
I built a grid-based music sequencer for the web a while ago that lets people see projects other people made in a side panel.
I very quickly realized I needed some manual content moderation because some people immediately started sharing patterns that looked like dicks and swastikas lol
Which MMO was that in? I'm working on my own and now I have a new worry on my plate. Short of standard moderation, an algorithm to detect it could be interesting.
You could search for the article about how the Lego mmo (or that's what i think it was) was shut down, then stop worrying about it. Unless you want to spend the rest of your natural life on detecting penises, swastikas and everything else. I mean, everything is offensive to someone.
I realized it would be easy enough to detect when certain lines are forming and manually shuffling the players a few spots, but your comment made me smile. Somewhere in there is the start of a biography title.
Here's an extra part of the spec: Deliberately there is no correct WWW browser window width. So you'll also have to account for the swastika writers using a whole range of window widths.
