The Nazi party borrowed a lot of symbolism from ancient history. In fact, the swastika itself is derived from an ancient symbol for good luck (4 "L's" bound together to mean "Luck," "Life," "Love," and "Light."
The cross on the Legion banner - as well as practically every thematic device we use, from our banner motifs to our motto ("Victuri te Salutant" - Latin for "We, who are about to succeed, salute you;" a more positive take on the old gladiator adage) - are derived from the ancient Roman empire.
I think more people took offense to the fact that you actually thought that any large modern organization of people in as mainstream a medium as a video game could actually form a guild based on National Socialism or what the party stood for.
Regardless, let's consider any such misinterpretation dispelled now.
We apologize for our overreaction. We will not, however, apologize for our being offended by your very question.
Please take care.
The watcher.
