Not really. I've encountered people in my life who I've imagined I might off were I certain to get away with it, but I've never experienced the desire to kill 10 million people just for the lulz, much less because they were of a certain ethnic background, sexual orientation, political persuasion, or what have you.

ZyklonB is a pretty cool name. And historically speaking, it wasn't used only on Jews, it was used on anyone the Nazis wanted to eliminate, including a significant number of non-Jews.
As a username it should not be seen in any worse context than some of the other Gnet usernames that are linked to death: Rotting Corpse, Maggot, Slipknot, corpse grinder, The Killer Inside, and many others.
What is more important is ZyklonB's good taste in music! 
Welcome.

Technically speaking Zyklon B is just a deadly gas, but it's name harbors potent connotations, connotations which, as you stated, not only entail ethnic purging, but genocide perpetrated against homosexuals, freemasons, and Jehovah's Witnesses, to name a few.
I could log in to Gnet with the handle NAZI, intending my forumname to be an acronym for "No Annoying Zebra Iconoclasts" or something of that nature, but I'd be pretty optimistic if I didn't expect someone to question me about it.

Possibly because of the amount of rivetheads I talk to (the Northern parts of Britain are very industrial/noize these days), ZyklonB is more of a band I'm not fond of than something that has any kind of genocidal connotations for me. (I'm not intending to belittle the use of it, only saying that my current social situation leads me to see words differently).
I'm sure that some rivetheads, if we had any, would immediately think of the music and not the murder.
But anyway.
Welcome, Zyklon. Have a good time. We share music taste (yay Voltaire!) and I'm sure you'll get along fine once everyone gets used to your username.

Anyways, once again, welcome.

I agree with gothicusmaximus, your choice of "ZyklonB" as your forumname is a bit odd. As long as your not a nazi, your cool. Welcome to Gnet.

Honestly? No...I have this nasty little habit of converting anger toward others into anger toward myself. I think many women are socialized to act inwardly with negative affect, which isn't to say that there exist homicidal women.
Just...personally. I could never willfully harm any mammal, let alone human.
