Hidden in the depths of the Minecraft Forum archives (in an old thread by Mark) lies the first ever documented instance of a swastika on the server. In fact, it is one of the earliest known screenshots of the server period, which gives it historical significance. With that said, I present to you...
The Big Bang
looks like a sad pinwheel
This one was found by pure chance. I was following a railway line made by an OP and out of the blue, I spotted this gem just existing in the middle of nowhere. The creator thought they could try and create a thin swastika and make it out of trapdoors but it clearly didn't go well. The dimensions are incredibly off and the usage of trapdoors makes making a proper swastika rather difficult.

The Pencil-Thin Swastika
This one is another one I found by pure chance, not too far from the current spawn. The creator of this one was spamming a bunch of blocks everywhere and along the way, they made a swastika out of glass. It's quite large, possibly making it the largest swastika ever made on the server and crudely made with no symmetry. It's hard to see since it is made of glass so I took several screenshots including one with Wurst's "search" feature to highlight its shape. It also resembles a person waving at the viewer of this masterpiece.
This one shall now be known as...
Found moderately close to spawn, sitting on the ground floor beneath, lay this detailed treasure of a Hall of Shame entry. One of the more intricate and high-effort builds to be indoctrinated, however still all the more shameful. Depicted is a pyramid of stone brick, with Nazi imagery and symbolism injected into every orifice, both overtly visible and sheltered inside. Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you all:
The Reichamid
Top of Exterior (picture taken by me) | The signs on the sides of the peak only hold an iron cross Unicode symbol, and the banners are the German Empire flag. Also, yes, the swazzy made out of redstone is facing the improper way.
Interior (picture taken by videogamesm12) | The sign in the center says something among the lines of "RIP Himmler".
truly Disgusting
TF is the gift that keeps on giving. In the span of one day, three amazing swastikas were created.
This one's quite self-explanatory. The creator tried making a compact nazi flag with stairs. The end result is a rather goofy looking attempt at making a nazi flag. When they got caught, they ended up creating what is known as The Hindu Temple.
This one was a revision of the Reich of Fail in which the creator flipped the swastika, changed its materials and made a little shrine saying its a "Hindu Symbol" in attempt to disguise what it really is. Credit where it's due, its a rather creative way to go about making a swastika.
The creator of this one did the classic 3 troll builds which are: The Slur, The Swastika, and The Penis. All three are equally shitty and as a result, earns their place in the Hall of Shame. The swastika has absolutely 0 symmetry and each part is either shorter or longer than the others. The penis and attempted slur also suffer the same fate. Their poor construction makes you really think about the thought process of their creator.
It's once again time for more entries to be inducted into The Hall of Shame. A player griefed some builds and also created 3 masterpieces that are pictured below. The name of this entry is fitting given not one of these swastikas is built correctly. They all are of different sizes and all have a rectangular profile. I really wonder what this guy's thought process was when making these.
