CoDz Code of Conduct
Listed below is the Code of Conduct.
Please don't just read numbered points and say "I'd never advertise!" and skip over it, because there are things you may not realize are categorized as advertising, or anything else, that are and you might have already broken them. If you have any questions regarding this, please ask, and have a good time and be sure to follow the rules!
1. ADVERTISING [ADV]:
Rule: Advertising to other users inside the CoDz Forum, whether it be via a post, personal message, or profile/signature links, to buy or view any products, websites, or other service is strictly prohibited. Non-intrusive links in signatures to personal YouTube accounts may be allowed, but that is case-to-case and each will be reviewed individually.
Consequence: The infringing user’s account will be banned, as well as the IP address. Any post with the intentions of advertising will be immediately and permanently deleted.
Example: If you are a spam bot, a hired advertiser, or a desperate website/business owner, this may apply to you. Signing up and making your only post a promotion for your zombie gameplay YouTube channel is breaking the rule. However simply sending links to a fellow forum goer who wants to know where to buy a capture card is not breaking this rule, PMing your buddy a link to a funny YouTube video isn't, etc.
2. DOUBLE ACCOUNTS [DBLE]:
Rule: Creating another account when a a user already has one account on CoDz is not allowed. There is little to no need for a separate account. If you've forgotten your password and need access back to your main account, use the Forgot Password link. Should there be a logical reason outside of forgetting credentials for the double account, contact a staff member immediately with details of the situation..
Consequence: The secondary account created by the original user will be permanently banned given with evidence of double accounts. In addition, the original account held by the user will be temporarily banned as well. Using the secondary account to avoid a suspension/ban on the main account will result in both accounts being permanently banned.
Example: A user creates a double account because they've been banned. If that account matches up the original user and no case has been made to the staff about the reason for the double account, both accounts will be banned after contacting the user.
3. SPAMMING [SPAM]: Spamming is defined as many things, and all of them aren’t allowed. As a CoDz user, you should hold yourself to a high standard and use common sense when posting.
Duplicate Posts -
Rule: Creating a thread that discusses a topic that has already been brought up in another thread is generally frowned upon, as each user is responsible for finding the pre-existing thread and making their remarks there. Cross-posting violations (making more than one post of the same question/answer across multiple forums) is prohibited.
Consequence: The infringing duplicate thread will be either merged (with the original thread), locked, or deleted, depending on the situation. When dealing with two duplicate threads, the staff will sometimes exercise their own personal judgement with regard to the thread’s posts, to avoid conversations being broken up and posts losing their cohesion, as all the comments in both threads are merged and arranged by the date they were posted.
Cross-posting violations will be dealt with by deleting all cross-posted threads. Users are responsible for figuring out the appropriate section in which to post their topic. If you have any trouble you may ask any staff member for advice!
We always welcome PMs from the users!
Example: If two threads are created that both discuss the exact same element of a newly released Zombie Map trailer, they become ‘duplicate posts’, as they consist of identical, or very similar, material. However, if someone makes a thread about, for example, who they think the Pentagon Thief is, and then someone else makes a thread in which they argue that it is actually someone completely different, they would not be breaking the rule.
Moreover, if someone made a thread that came to the same conclusion as the first user’s thread did, it still wouldn’t necessarily break the rule, as long as they brought new evidence to the table (or reevaluated old evidence) while doing so. If they reach the same conclusion, then they will be merged, in which case the older thread will remain, and the newer thread will become a reply to the older post.
Post Pumping -
Rule: Any user that makes a post just to increase their own post count is considered disruptive to the community, and is interfering with the other members’ usage of the CoDz forum.
Consequence: Violations will be dealt with on a case-by-case basis - some users will be warned verbally by PM, others may receive an official warning, and posts/threads may also be deleted (which will make your post count drop again!). Repeat offenders will suffer a Permanent Ban of their account on the forum.
Example: If a user makes a post saying “I agree,” or “We know,” or something similar and they do not further the conversation or productivity of the thread, that would be grounds for deletion of the post. The specific details of post pumping are left for staff to decide case-by-case, as there are a broad range of possibilities, which are quite dependent on the circumstances.
4. FLAMING [FLAME]:
Rule: Posts, signatures, avatars, or PMs that are intended to harass, threaten, embarrass or cause the distress or discomfort to another member of the CoDz Forum Community or any other individual or entity is unacceptable. (For this reason, the emoticon known as “facepalm” has been removed from the forum.)
Consequence: In some cases, warnings may be issued, but flaming is likely to result in Permanent Banning. It is therefore advisable to always be respectful to your fellow members; this does not mean you cannot disagree with someone, but you do not need to tear a person down in order to prove your point, so be careful with sarcasm! The response “I was only joking” will not get you much sympathy.
Example: If a user says to another on the forum that they are stupid, dumb, illogical, incompetent, etc., that is an example of a user tearing another down, and is considered to be ‘flaming’. Even sarcastically saying “Wow, you’re a bright one, aren’t you..” or “Did you figure that out on your own?” would qualify as a form of harassment.
5. OFFENSIVE CONTENT [OFF]:
Rule: Using offensive language in any context is not allowed here at the CoDz Forum. We believe that our intelligent members can make their points and offer their contributions WITHOUT the necessity of vulgarities. Included in this would be racism, sexism, or any other form of discrimination that may end up causing the distress or discomfort of a user or any group in general. Along with offensive language, displaying or linking to offensive content is not allowed at CoDz. Please be sensitive towards others and how they may react to sensitive material.
Consequence: Posts, signatures, or profiles containing offensive language, content, or links will be edited and/or deleted by the Forum Moderators and Warnings will be issued as appropriate. Repeat violations of this policy may result in more severe actions, up to and including Permanent Banning.
Example: You can come up with your own examples for sensitive language, I trust we all have at least a few in our heads, but simply starring out a letter or putting a strike through the word does not excuse its usage, such as f*ck, sh*t, etc. An example of offensive content could be an avatar of the Twin Towers falling with the caption “Burn baby burn!” This is very offensive to many people, and although it may not be so to you, please respect the feelings of other users.
Examples of offensive links include Pornographic, Racial, Defamation, or any other derogatory content. If it does not pass our CoC do not link to it on our site.
6. SIGNATURES [SIG]:
Rule: A user’s signature may only be 5 lines high, 15 pixels high per line and 65 pixels wide per line. A signature must follow all of the above guidelines concerning offensive language and material, and also concerning advertising.
Consequence: If a user creates a signature that violates the above rules, they will first be contacted and asked to change their signature. If they do not comply, someone will change it for them. Particularly horrid offenses will be dealt with by staff in an appropriate manner.
Example: A “good” signature could contain a few links to some threads (as long as they follow previous rules), zombie round numbers, a small image, or something personal, such as a saying or quote. A “bad” signature would contain any annoying “flashy” .GIFs, or any content that would not comply with previous CoC rules.

the "ready up" system is a key part of why zombies matchmaking has been so fun for all these years. it allowed for players to conversate, wait for others with headsets, and eliminate those who didnt. it kept the public matchmaking alive for years after release, but now it has been removed and replaced with a 60 second counter that doesnt reset upon joining or leaving and there is no way to extend it. this is game ruining for a pulic match player like myself and leaves us with a few choices. -play solo, wich i like but gets boring after mastering the map. -friends sessions, wich is also fun but gets boring quickly. - play with no mics, ragers, squeakers, and morons. is the…

With the latest news of "panic knifing" being removed from the game after SO long, I began to wonder: How will knifing work? Well supposedly, knifing now stuns the enemy with small amounts of damage from a weapon smash to the face. That's really cool, but won't kill the average player. Now many people are upset about this, and I have to say this: There are 2 solutions A knife being a weapon, which will take up a weapons slot and kill the player one stab. Or: The return of the bayonet attachment: Slap that on and you get melee-kills from weapon bashes. Of course, it takes up an attachment slot... Your thoughts?

I have seen people say that they have seen the Chicom CQB in the trailer along with the Remington 870 MCS. I can agree with those as I have at least seen what could be new versions of them in the trailer. My question is, are there any weapons we know about or are most of them new? Especially these pistols:

As I'm sure you've seen on youtuber's channels. Black ops 3 has gone gold. MEANING, it's finished. No more major tweaks or changes. Everything's just being printed onto disks and shipped to storage. What does this mean for us? Leaks- Avoid these. More stuff to anaylize: Now that game production is on the backburner, treyarch is biding it's time by either advertising the game more. Or sitting back and not doing much. Chances are if they're smart, it'll be the first one. We're nearly a month before launch fellow inmates! Getting close! Nov. 6 isn't that far off! (39 days from now ^_^)

Is anyone else disappointed in the graphics shown thus far in gameplay clips (zomibes or multiplayer)? They just don't seem to be much more improved over last gen consoles. To me the jump from WaW (360) to BO2 (One) is way bigger than BO2 (360) to BO3 (One). Here's 1080p (though 30fps) gameplay of BO3 multiplayer. https://youtu.be/5ociYeI-cEE?t=44s And while the one in game screenshot of Richtofen in The Giant looked good, the gameplay of Shadows of Evil didn't seem that much improved. Maybe we'll just have to wait to see it in action on our own consoles/PC to judge, but so far I'm not impressed.

So, many of you will remember supply drops from advanced warfare. You typically got one, maybe 2, each game, and at the end of the match you'd be rewarded with 3 random items ranging from clothes to hidden weapons. You also had a legendary supply drop awarded to you upon reaching certain levels. Items you already had could be exchanged for XP. In BO3 we have a similar system where each game we earn 2-3 cryptokeys and can trade 10 of them in for 3 items ranging from calling cards to hidden weapons. Or, you can wait, collect 30 cryptokeys, then get a special crate of somewhat "better" items. You can burn duplicates as well. Here's t…

We were extremely close to getting the Paris map in Black Ops but now as we write the evenst of Black Ops again maybe we finally get to visit Paris. The Giant map starts from the point Richtofen betrays Maxis. So what happened after this point? Richtofen would have met the O4 at Shi No Numa where he would have gone back to Der Riese and started their travel together to hunt the artifacts. Now Richtofen is dead and O4 are most likely still at the Siberian outpost. Treyarch has said they have no plans at the moment to visit other old maps in Black Ops III so we know that the crews trip will change. They are not going to find the artifacts or blow up the Earth but do someth…

What is everyones thoughts on this? I'd so love to play BO1/2 on current gen, i think it could be a good marketing strategy to promote BO3 tbh. But typical ATVI may not allow it.

In buried, after completing the easter egg for maxis's side, we get to hear what richtofen knows about samantha, which is still cryptic. It describes how samantha is likely dead, but more importantly, is trapped within the body of richtofen. Now I'm just spitballing here... But what if the richtofen in the giant's opening, the old one... Is samantha from moon... It would explain a lot. Why she's gone quiet, why there's crying in the furnace... If samantha was controlling richtofen in that body, or was linked to it. She's just lost her last conduit to the human world, similar to gersh. It'd be a compelling act but look at …

Okay, heres a short breakdown of the very first CoDZ comic. I haven't talked or discussed about it with anyone, nor have I read it myself. I have only seen MrRoffleWaffles's video. I self really like it, both the story as the style it is written and drawed. It still leaves some open gaps for theorists, unlike I previously thought. Here we go: Spoiler In the first page of the comic book, it is said by the sane Origins Richthofen that many worlds are broken, because of his own selfish agenda. The story zooms in on four specific survivors: Misty, Marlton, Russman and Stulinger, all in an unknown American town. While Marlton is sitting in some kind o…

So looking at the model and how the thief works, anyone notice the thing on his belt? kind of looks like one of the gadgets on the moon loading screen, could this be how he travels? with multiverses being a thing now could we see him again? Or maybe with all the equations and things on him, and him being from 935 as shown on his bag, could this be monty? edit: Who remembers this? In one of the "ads" it talks about a pocket personal teleporter as well as an xenon belt. Now could the Pentagon theif be Mr. M after all we only saw him in one map however he had some of these items (my opinion on closer inspection of the thiefs model.)…

I will preface this by saying that, yes, I do know that there is a topic for discussing the ending, and I have commented my brief thoughts there. I wanted to talk a bit more about this and some more that could be considered quite off-topic in that topic. I love Zombies. I have since the first time I played Kino der Toten, years ago. And I really care about the Zombies community. It is full of entertaining, intelligent, resourceful people that all share a common interest in Zombies. But this ending, no, the entirety of Blundell's story, from Mob of the Dead to Revelations, has caused one major issue that absolutely needs to be resolved. And no, I am not suggesting that…

With the new patch, there looks to be a difference in the Zombies behaviour. They seem to be a lot less aggressive on the early rounds, and generally have a slower response time, similar to Black Ops 2 Zombies. It looks like that there may be a lot more walkers than usual per round too, and they have new walking animations. Also, as the rounds progress Zombies run much faster, similar to Zombies that are struck by George in Call of the Dead, or Zombies who chase after the Tank in Origins. So, I'm wondering if anyone else has noticed this too? I don't knowwhy Treyarch have done this, but if I had to guess it would…

From WaW through to Black Ops 3, map by map, game by game - what remains unanswered, what has been answered, when did the story divert from what was originally being told/did it divert? When did apothicons and margwas first get introduced what was the purpose, did the ending answer everything, was it a good or bad ending? Lets keep it on topic and factual please.

As we know, Treyarch has been streaming interviews every Fridays this month. This week is the third episode. Sidenote: This Friday they MAY talk a bit about zombies. If you wish to tune in its up on Call of Duty's youtube channel by Friday afternoon. I doubt there will be any huge spoilers. The first two episodes have been mostly just technical talk and q&a with a few devs. They have mentioned stuff like how improvements are being made to multiplayer spawn systems and AI, what has changed since the beta and they've showcased the new specialist and MP map. They've also shared their insight and stories about how they got their inspirations and how they set up maps for t…

The inspiration for this map is a bit topical, if the mods have any issue with it, please feel free to inform me to remove what's in this spoiler, or remove it yourself. I don't want this thread taken down for something so trifle, but I do want people to get the whole picture. Just tell me and I'll take it down. *Thumbs up Emoji Now for those that don't want to hear anything about the BO3 beta's PC file codes: Skip this spoiler. Ladys and gentlemen: Dead OPs Arcade II: Castle of the undead This mode will be unlocked similarly to the last DOA, only this time it's by finding a specific website on the the new In-game-Wiki.

So as we know the Dr Monty thing was released and we know he is a person but thats not why i made this topic i made this topic to talk about the most important thing he said in my mind in the segment the line i am referring to is this one "You Changed the rules" that has been bothering me ever since i first watched a reaction by Mrrolfwaffles(Damn me to hell if i spelled it wrong) and i just wonder, Did Monty actually have rules set up for this whole thing from the start of the zombies mode? Did he have rules set up for the origins crew?
