I had seen this on many posts and just thought I'd ask.
Filters out the naughty words.
I am a monument to all of your sins.If anything just cannot go wrong ,it will anyway.fortune wisdomI love my Mark V helmet, no upgrade necessary.
Its a word which the system uses to cover up swear words or indecent language.
For many believe, but few follow...-The Elites call me Enki 'Samudee. What do they call you?-Imperial march -The Real Community. Saving the forums one post at a time.-The Black Tower
It's the Bungie.net profanity-filter dervice 3000. Commonly refered to as the "blam" filter.
I see people getting away with swearing. What word does it filter(if bungie lets you tell me, of you PM)
Some words are allowed. And some people do stuff to words (Like add extra characters) to avoid the filter. But for specific words that are filtered, this list is long.[Edited on 02.08.2008 7:21 PM PST]
like adding a 3 in place of an E, for example?
yes

Try someting twice, and your chances increase yet again - seeing as you've done it. Try something a few thousand times, and your chances of success is exponentially increased; this increase would likely provide success every time
Well, to tell you the truth, -blam!- was actually the codename for Halo. =) As for what words are censored, it's almost all words that can be offensive if used in a certain context. It's hard to actually make a list though, since there are quiet a few.
what the blam!
m is used to cover up profanity or profane language used by bungie community which should be reported and is bealived to be equivelent to a cuss word please do not repeat this because bingie does not like to see this and they have enough problems as it is.

Flyin' ain't nothin', it's just fallin' with stylePosted by: NedgeCool. I am once again reminded why the forums are more fun for a select group of people than they are for everyone. Party on. I'll just continue to sit in the corner and watch the "cool kids" play.
What is -blam!-?The real question is, what is it not?
Gotta love -blam!-I can't remember where I read this, I thought it was the Bungie History page, bu I just checked and it's not. Apparently the origins of -blam!- are that in the old Chigago office Bungie would here cars screeching in the middle of the night. Every time they did, they hoped to here the sound of a crash, but never did. So they just improvised their own sound effects. And -blam!- was born.

You may have seen this information on Bungiepedia, among other places.
I can only imagine what it would be like if cars colliding actually made that sound. It'd make it less tragic to say the least
