The way I have my game set up, I avoid monstrosities such as that.. As
well as Charles Darwins, killer teapots, and nests of Gazeebos. :)
But, yes ... >sigh< I suppose if you're on that level, that *is* a path
you could take...

There's a project out there called "The Playable Buddy List" essentially
a list of screened and approved players. The idea was to weed out such
things. So I have the players listed and the game set to "buddy content

It works quite well.
