My new duo, shamans, are Windführer and Oprahwinfury. People instantly said "You're going to get reported/suspended", I don't get it. It's a legit german noun meaning leader or sometimes guide, naturally he is the guide of the wind - down his arms when windfury procs and so on. Hmpf. People are messed up.
I think this depends on the server you are on. If you are on a German WoW server in the EU, you are unlikely to have a problem, since what you are saying is correct. 'Fuehrerschein' for example means driving license. But in the US, or even on English EU servers, that is different. You can expect people there to associate the word with the context they are most likely to have heard it in, and that is in WWII movies and used by the Nazis. That is not exactly an association you want when you are trying to immerse yourself in an MMO, in particular on a RP server. =]
