Diggles, if someone made a guild called "The Rape of Nanking" I would be offended even if I didn't know anyone was killed in The Rape of Nanking.
People don't need to be victims of a genocide in order to empathize with and be sensitive to the people who did.
My neighbor and close friend is a holocaust survivor. She was sent to a concentration camp and separated from her parents and siblings. During a physical, the doctor explained that he could help her escape if she could play dead. She agreed to the plan. Nazi soldiers stripped her and dumped her into a pit of corpses outside of the camp. She was nine. When the soldiers left, she climbed out and ran, stark-naked, into the forest. She was taken in by compassionate strangers. None of her immediate family survived the camps. She's one of the sweetest, funniest people I know.
Many of my friends had family die in the holocaust, and some of my family died fighting the Nazis.
How do you people live with yourselves?

Holocaust has nothing to do with race. Genocide, however, does.
You could name a guild Genocide and it still wouldn't be offensive.
Slave Labor, Slave Force and other Slave guild names should be allowed too.
guild names like "African ****** Slaves" wouldn't cut it, nor would "****** Slaves" or "Jewish ****** Genocidery" or "****** Jewocaust"
i am pretty sure the word holocaust predates Jewish people, get off it's nuts.
