2B || !2B - Why don't you look Inside the Machine?
This is how I see it:
The profanity blocker on here is to really cover only the basics. You've got your words in question and you have the method to block them. When people start changing vowels to look different but to still give it an appearance of the word, well, your method doesn't work anymore. The problem is that any method can't cover every situation. That is why you try your hardest to block as many words/phrases and then you weed out the rest. You can never fully cover the adaptability of speech and how people will try their hardest to cuss or say what they feel they have a right to say.
That is why for the people who take extra hard care in trying to cuss get a serious punishment. If you don't obey the rules and/or try to circumvent the rules then you'll end up in a deal of trouble. Perhaps a 7-day blacklist, maybe a 1 month blacklist, or even a perma-ban. The theme is: Don't go out of your way to break the rules, if you can't do it then don't try to intentionally do it.
The better solution to this problem is: Don't swear/cuss/use intolerable language on this forum board. Swearing/Cussing/Intolerable language isn't a good thing to practice in the first place, but, if you want to use it then do it elsewhere. Bungie.net should be considered a "family zone." You don't want to use language that could offend or hurt someone here because children do come here because Bungie is an immortal tower of joy and bliss, plus Halo.
Do good to others, for others. Actually, better put, Play Nice.
Edit: For clarity I came off a bit harsh, it isn't my intention. I'm just trying to give an opinion.
