Is that the fourth thread already about it?:P

1. it's not the swastika; different orientation - different sign
2. we've had threads on this
3. the 'swastika' is a much older symbol and has been asociated with far different themes and ideas for far longer than the nazis have existed
4. the random map generator makes crosses, up-side-down-crosses, and any number of vague shapes and symbols - so what? Who cares?
5. if it is the swastika as you might insist, who cares? It's the location of a dungeon filled with evil things! Wouldn't the swastika be fitting? It's evil too! Should we have ponies in dungeons because the recently undead, baby corpses, and skeletons offend you?
6. a map generator is not racist, it can't be racist - it isn't a person

Maybe I can make it before it gets locked. Let's see.

Pure coincidence. I doubt GGG would do this on purpose :)

It could have been on purpose. I doubt it though. With how it is laid out it looks like a native american symbol used. Seems like it is used in tons of different cultures.

I think Western society puts too much power in the Swastika. If we're just to accept it as it is, to let people use it as they will, it will lose its power and people will stop caring about it. If people think this symbol should be changed - if we should censor this - then we will ultimately just be giving power to this silly symbol.

It's not racism. Just let it be.

Clearly a sign the Mayan calendar is true and we will be all be dead by the end of the year.
