-blam!- was used because of its implement in Halo. Now that Bungie is done with Halo, it should change to something temporary until their next game is announced.

It didn't start because of Halo.
Anyway, I like it the way it is at the moment.

It was, just that's not where the term "blam" came from.

When their studio was in Chicago, vehicle tires could be heard screeching due to having a near miss with another vehicle, and "Blam!" would be said out loud in the hopes that the vehicles would crash.

It wouldn't be -blam!- if it wasn't -blam!-

smart, interesting, seems out of place.


Official fan of Assassin's Creed, Call of Duty, (Problem with that?) Halo, and Bungie, also a total gaming junkie.

-blam!- is a part of Bungie. Changing it would be like banning the webmaster from alcoholic beverages.

No i thing it was when someone from Bungie forgot who, was talking to their mother, and used -blam- instead of the codename of the project because it was to adult. I think the projects name was monkey nuts

Key

Why would you replace it? Why would they use the same censor-word as Waypoint? What do potatoes have to do with anything? Why would they call themselves killjoys for censoring something they don't believe belongs on the site?

In a time long past, the armies of the dark came again to the lands of men. Their leaders became known as the fallen lords, and their terrible sorcery was without equal in the west.
In 30 years they reduced the civilized nations into carrion and ash. Until the free city of Madrigal alone defined them. An army gathered there, and a desperate battle was joined against the fallen
Heros were born in the fire and bloodshed of the wars which followed and their names and deeds will never be forgotten

in all honesty, -Blam!- is fine.

True, but they'd need the code word after the code word to get to the real code word. Didn't you get the -monkey nuts- memo?

It should stay the same. If it's not broken, don't fix it.

-Killjoy- seems reasonable, due to the fact that your taking someones joy from them.

I remember when I used this space to put cool looking links to my chapters back in the day. I don't even know why I'm using it now. Why are you even reading this? You must be interested in me. Still reading?

I love how don't actually type "-blam!-" when using the word -blam!-. I just type -blam!-.

Maybe -eeghad!- or -censoredbecauselittlekiddiesmightbereadingthis!- ?

Replace it with the actual word, censoring swear words is just childish.
Lol at irony?
