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.

I woke up this morning to do a few things, then I decided to play online for alittle and I joined about 5 different domination matches (all casual) and every single match I was up against high prestigers (10th 11th 12th.. and so on)! Now it's pretty normal every once and while to run into a match with high prestigers but almost every one of them has them!!! I then looked at the playlist and saw that the prestige playlists weren't there anymore, I don't know about everyone else but i'm only 2nd prestige and i'm not the greatest player in the world and my ratio is really dropping from this. Just thought I should speak my mind :)

You guys know about the new update for gknova6, of course you do well you see those docter supples on the table on gknova look at the teaser trailer and you'll see the same tools with THE TVS. So that means, maybe the main character is captured and is being turned into a mindless freak but escapes and fights off a horde of zombies. :twisted:

some ideas that i liked to share about black ops zombies Called in by radio and takes up the special grenades slot. When you receive a walkie talkie in the random weapon box, you have the option of the three choices below. The chances of receiving a walkie talkie from the random weapon box is as rare as receiving a Colt 1911 from the box. •AH-64D Apache Attack Helicopter equipped with two Gatling Guns and Hellfire Missiles. •HH-47 Chinook Helicopter drops off three Special Ops Force soldiers on Solo, 2 on Co-op, and cannot be called in if you have four people. Soldiers last for 2 minutes, and spawn with random assault rifles. •B-52H “Stratofortress” B…

So I was recently checking Mr. Olin's twitter, where he posted a link to a review of the Black Ops single player demo which he is showcasing over in Europe this week. Here it is: http://www.joystiq.com/2010/08/18/preview-call-of-duty-black-ops-single-player/ The man says "You'll see severed body parts and other grisly wounds. It's horrific, but the game rarely celebrates the violence." Now, of course he is referring to the single player campaign, but why would they put it in SP and not MP? That wouldn't make any sense if they did.

This is about Firing Range- but bear with me for a bit: In Nuketown's musical easter egg you knife the mannequins heads in 15 seconds and a song plays on some speakers outside of the map. When you look in any other map you cannot find those exact same speakers- except for at Firing Range. Why? Because there is a musical easter egg at Firing Range. Here is my evidence: 1) Firing Range and Nuketown have objects that no other map has- Targets and Mannequins. 2) They are the only maps with those speakers Now some may say that Treyarch would have hinted at this if it was true but perhaps Nuketown is the hint!

So do you all remember the hit-list from the GKNOVA6 Live Drop. here is a picture of it Now, there is 2 people that i have a concern about. Good ol' Shoreyo, where the F*ck did he disappear to. i am sure that he hasnt posted anything in a while. i know that some mods and stuff will be saying to use the search button AND I DID, but about 12 days is still a while. maybe treyarch told him something the person with more concern is Shizzire he last posted on MAY 24th. that is ages ago. why hasent he posted up here at all. if he was going to just not look at the forums anymore wouldnt he say something like "great site but i am going to not look at it anymor…

Wow guys, I can't believe none of us saw this. It's not really HUGELY MAJOR, but remember back to GKNOVA6 Transmissions, where we spent hours and hours decoding them? You remember the ones with the Freemasons? Think about that for a second. Freemason. Free-Mason. Mason's being interrogated ( as shown in the Launch Trailer, I think) and obviously someone's trying to free him I never noticed that, thought I'd point it out for anyone else
