In Minecraft's defense, while I'm not agreeing with the blocking either, it really is hard to distinguish one set of characters from another unless you look it up. Just because you know Chinese doesn't mean he would. My wife is Chinese, and I still can't tell the difference between Japanese and Chinese characters either.

It isn't racist. And if he didn't think to look to see what the characters meant, of course he'd block it. Because who knows what they could have meant. The fact that the characters meant Shanghai was the reason why I released the block. If the characters translated would have been something derogatory or profane, I would have kept the block on.
