Thanks. In the OP, I said,

In all chat modes, there is a primary-level filter that prevents blatant obscenities, from going through. Entering that in a chat line, prevents the line from going through and displays a warning on the person's screen, warning them that their account standing is in jeopardy. Further such attempts give sterner warnings. Ignoring those can automatically block an account.
The "short list" of bad words is actually quite short - about a dozen words and maybe 5 dozen variations of them. Since most of those same terms are censored here, there is no reason to try listing those here. Furthermore, those give a perfectly clear warning.

Of interest to me (and the purpose of this thread) is to identify the "mystery" terms, that give no warning whatsoever, that DO give an indication the chat went through, when in fact, the server side filter eats the entire line of text.
