None of the people who think the guild name is offensive are responding to the people who are saying why it should be allowed. You guys are just repeating the same silly arguments over and over again. "Holocaust" in common parlance does not refer to the slaughter of jews in world war 2; "THE Holocaust" does. But "Holocaust" means something completely different. You know the Armenian genocide is sometimes called the Great Calamity? I mean, just google "the great calamity" and the first link is a link about the Armenian genocide. Are you going to tell me that such a guild name would be offensive?

like i said before, you would have to be mad to think this. do a google search for holocaust, find the first non-jewish holocaust reference and tell me which page is on. i already did the search myself, i know you'll be looking for a while. in common usage the word 'holocaust' almost always refers specifically to the jewish holocaust.
