It's unfair to assume that the guild name "Holocaust" is referring to the events that transpired during world war 2, so it should be allowed because it can be interpreted in multiple ways.

Well, at least in Europe it is only associated with the murder of 6 million people. And do you really think these guys didn't chose the name in order to provoke other players? Of course they did. If they had named their guild "Nuclear Holocaust", that would have described a completely different concept. No problem! But the bare word "Holocaust" clearly refers to the mass murder. Wikipedia quote regarding its public use: "The mini-series Holocaust is credited with introducing the term into common parlance after 1978.[12]"
I didn't want to bring this up, because the devs have better things to do. Still, you would never want to be connected to the term "Holocaust" (except you're a neo-Nazi).
