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.

Yes, I'm starting this up again. If any of you remember, I screwed the pooch a while back and made a... urg. Poor topic on the HQ about a mission where you track down JFK's shooter (yes carbon, I know you don't agree with this). In short an all out flame war started because of me. (Job well done?) Anywho, I found a tidbit on this controversy you may find interesting. Keep in mind that when I post this, I remain neutral on the matter. I give you JD's views on the matter: http://www.gamerzines.com/ps3/news/blac ... scene.html THINK BEFORE YOU POST!

Okay, I've played through the campaign several times now, I completely understand the stuff about the numbers, but the part that still confuses me is what things was Alex hallucinating about, a great example is, when you steal the hind in Payback, when you see the hind, you start to hear the numbers, but Reznov wasn't with you? Could you have been hallucinating about Woods there?

Alright, my friend is REALLY good at Black Ops, and i usually can't beat him on split-screen. But one night I start beating him on TDM, and he starts screen-looking and being a punk. What are your views on Screen-looking? Give me some feedback.

Okay, so at the start of the Black Ops release, quite alot of people got upset by the fact that the new zombie map with the crew took place in a theater, sure in Der Riese there was a picture of a teleporter with a sheet over it in a theater but in Der Riese there was the radio where Dr.Maxis was explaining that Group 935 were running out of Element 115 but said there was plenty of 115 at the Nevada base (Area 51 - so it had people scratching their heads when there was no Area 51 map in Black Ops. There was Deap Ops, no sight of area 51, FIVE-close but no cigar, Ascension - random Russian rocket station. Call of the Dead - no, Shangri La - random temple place which no o…

What do you want to see in Black Ops multiplayer? Here is what I want. I want LOTS of attachments like 3 different red dots, 3 different acog scopes, maybe different silencers if possible? I would also like to see more gun customization for example customizable camos (PLEASE!) where you could mix colors but you can only choose the colors once each time you unlock a camo. -Each perk should have a perk that can counter it!- -No secondary weapons like MW2, only pistols or crappy auto pistols as secondary- New Perks: - A perk that allows you to place a camera somewhere and you can see where its aiming on the bottom left of your screen? - Extra ki…

As many of us thought the computer used to access Dead Ops has other secrets...In this case another secret mini-game: ZORK. This is not atall related to Zombies and actually references the campaign. Type in Zork on Pc. Will unlock challenge 'Eaten by a Grue'. This I suppose you would describe as a 'text based adventure game'. You basically type in code and DOS (Disc operating system) commands. It is apparently a homage to Infocom's Zork game. Zork describes Itself as: 'A game of adventure, danger and low-cunning. You will explore territory never before seen by mortals. No computer should be without one'. I found this funny as all you seem to do …

I was thinking about buying the prestige edition for Black Ops so I was looking at the description for the RC-XD that comes with the prestige edition and then I noticed something interesting that might change my mind of getting it. In the red box it says the range can go up to 200 feet. I say to myself "ok this sounds like it can go really far" but then I realized that 200 feet is only about 67 yards so if I drove the RC-XD up a football field it would not even work if I go barely more than halfway. I know this isn't a REAL RC-XD but still even if i try to go up my street it would just stop working and be a waste a extra $70. So what do you guys think? I honest…

I can see this fitting in pretty nicely, as it could help players show off their zombie killing skills in-game. For example they could have their record round on the particular zombie match etched into their gun, much like the tallies etched onto the gun on the preorder poster. (If this thread exists already I'll delete this.)

As the title states, anyone who wants to is welcome to post their first Black Ops Multiplayer match right here! My first Multiplayer match is always very exciting for me, so it is special. I always wonder several months after starting to play the game, "I wonder what I first started out like?" I'm not entirely sure if you will be able to upload them to Youtube as well as the CoDHQ and then embed them on this site like normal videos. If not then mods, feel free to delete this thread. Only 1 Day to go! (I will not be posting my first MP match the day it comes out as i play other things first)

In this thread please post any suggestions you have for theater mode, or feedback on features we already have. The theater mode concept is an ever changing and improving feature, so I am curious what kind of things you would like to see in future versions. Personally I would like to see some kind of audio filter to choose which sounds are active during playback. Ready.... Go!

So we've all seen the new Black Ops Multi-player teaser, and if you haven't you can here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h_fsM6LBi54 In my opinion the teaser was exciting, but could probably be passed off as a map pack for Modern Warfare 2, still the game looks good and heres a list of things you should've noticed in the video 0:05 - 1 The game has a very clean look, the graphics are superb, but lack the gritty look of World at War and in fact looks very similar to Modern Warfare 2 - 2 You can also see that in the stead of the mini-map or radar, there is a live feed from a player deployed camera, a camera like icon can also be found above the upward arro…
