The moderators do not edit it. It's the profanity filter.

Wasn't bungie first going to call itself blam or something like that. I'don't know but i remember the word had a signifigant meaning for bungie. anyways I'm going to blam a little now... -blam!- -blam!- mother -blam!-s -blam!- -blam!- -blam!- -blam!- -blam!-s -blam!- -blam!- -blam!- -blam!- -blam!- -blam!-. that feels better.

Yep. There's a profanity filter installed here on bungie.net. It replaces foul language with blam!

I haven't heard any stories of Bungie possibly being called blam... Perhaps you are referring to the internal code name that was used for Halo? (well, technically the second code name after the first was dropped... but you already know that)
