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 like how they have kept this a secret for so long. (Or have I missed something... :?) The only hints we have got to what the rewards may be, are from Vahn's random tweets which everyone thinks are directly related to Black Ops (we actually never really know ) Well, they did confirm the first 5 prestige levels will be CaC Custom Slot unlocks. (MP Reveal) There are many things that could be rewarded for prestiging. I think guns/weapons may be a little too far though (balance issues! )

Day 1 Results: Highest Vote: People want to talk about leaked footage but only if it has a warning. Average Vote: People would like to talk about leaked footage regardless or with warnings. Second least Votes: People don't want to hear or see anything related to leaked footage. Least Votes: People really just don't care... haha. Fair enough? Hey guys, I've been browsing the topics constantly on and off recently. During the last week leaked footage has been spewing from every direction. I've also seen two factions of some sort. Those who are against any conversations about leaked footage. Then there are those who want to talk about the new thing…

As we've seen with the last couple of call of duty titles a number of supermarkets in the UK are having a midnight opening and price war for the sale of blackops. For MW2 they had copies on sale for £27 instead of the full £55 which was RRP and ive had confirmation that a number are looking to do the same again but copies will be limited. If you're in the uk ANd haven't preordered and fancy a bargain I suggest you check if your local Asda or Sainsburys is planning to open and if they are then get there early as only a couple of hundred copies likely per store. Good luck and hope to see you online at 12.10!!!!

So Raptr is encouraging everyone to play COD: BO (as if people need encouraging.) The more you play, the more prizes they unlock in a contest they are running (there is a lovely Alienware PC they are giving away.) It's an interesting concept, with prizes unlocked very 250,000 hours racked up. I do wonder if they will hit 4 million though to unlock all the stuff, since looking at the Raptr charts on their homepage, Halo: Reach has about 1.5 million hours tracked in the last month so far. The contest page is here: http://blog.raptr.com/2010/11/04/call-o ... e-you-win/

Well me and a mate were talking last night about what we'd have for our favourite classes at this stage - (obviously that could change when we actually play the game coz the guns we like could actually be terrible) and i was just interested to know what everyone is thinking in terms of create a class set-ups for what they've liked so far.. The main guns/weapons in MP i've liked the look of so far are: Olympia (because it looks so epic for a shotgun and i like the over and under.) Enfield M-16 M-14 w./ acog Ballistic knife Tomahawk MP5K M60 Death Machine (come on, how could you not like it - it looks like an absolute beast no doubt it will be ove…

SOURCE: http://www.callofduty.com/board/viewtop ... 0&t=304268 I apologize, but because I posted it in the CODHQ, I wanted to post it here on CODZ so other could learn of this discovery I made. Again, as I said last night on CODHQ, I hope this doesn't detract you from your plans of acquiring COD:BO...and as I said, I've only seen these "hit-detection issues" in Zombies gameplay, and not Campaign.

If you've watched some BO trailers, you know what I'm talking about. It's equipped with a Red Dot in most, and it brings back memories of the TMP from MW2 in its reloading animation and general feel. However, based upon the trailers, (haven't watched the leaks) it has high power, low rate of fire, and little recoil. This deadly combination has been seen in the MP40 and UMP45. I hope Treyarch fixes this, but I would like to hear you guys' thoughts. Discuss.
