There's only topics concerning posting photos of it. In the case of an emoji, one could assume that something that simple would be blocked by the same filter they use to ban words they don't like, or perhaps even hidden by the profanity filter.

The general gist I can get though is that the middle finger, in general, falls under flaming - so it wouldn't be okay to direct towards another user, but is fine as long as it's directed at a non-user (or not at anyone)?

i literally got moderated for posting the joe biden picture saying WILL YOU SHUT UP, MAN meme with no other text or offensive remarks while people are allowed to tell each other to shut the fuck up
anything is moddable here, it's like any other law - it depends on who is around and who is enforcing and judging

Pretty much, yeah:

If you can see this message it's a wonder why it hasn't been modded yet by the snowflakes.

Also little known trivia, if you have the profanity filter turned on, it converts it to a thumbs up. =P

Oh wow, a rare "devs think of everything" moment on GameFAQs. And I guess that specifically confirms that it's not a violation in and of itself, if the filter specifically catches it.
