I don't know if this is what you were getting at, but here's the dirt on Bam
Bam from the Q&A:

Bam-Bam:
Q1: By paying the cost again, may Bam-Bam's melee be added to his Attack Value
multiple times?
A1: Sorry, can't grant your wish. Bam-Bam's Melee can only be added to his
Attack value once per combat. We'll make this clearer when the card is
reprinted.

Q2: Why the pumpability differences on some Runners, i.e. only one pump for
Bam-Bam, but unlimited for Stiletto or Tin Man? Let's have some continuity...
A2: There is. Bam-Bam is not pumpable. He has a special ability w/ a cost. If
he was pumpable, Bam-Bam's card would read: 1Y = +1/+0

Hope this helps.

Tony
