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.

This seems strange, given the antagonism between the two cold war superpowers, but Black Ops is littered with hints that the Soviets worked with the Americans. First and foremost, the thundergun, a Russian weapon, shows up in the lab area on Five. You cannot get this weapon from the box, but you can see it in the lab looking like it is about to be dissembled. What would a top secret Russian weapon be doing in the pentagon, unless the Soviets gave it to the Americans. I doubt that the Soviets would have let the Americans just take such a powerful weapon, instead I believe they would have destroyed it. Moreover, the lab area is filled with canisters of the Nova 6 gas. This …

I just don't understand it. How could Treyarch have gone into making this game without realizing the dangers of the Famas, AUG, or Galil? Not only that, but the subs suck in their own right anyway. I should be able to use whatever gun that I want and still be able to compete with it, right? Let's take a look at some major balance issues. Let's say I wanted to use a Mac11. Why? Fastest reload when not reload canceling and fast swap speed. Now enter the Famas. There's no reason to use a Mac11 over a Famas. Why? Because both have the same rate of fire, but the Famas has three shot kill at close range and four at long range while the Mac11 is a four shot kill…

First of all I would Like to say Hello to all, It has been quite some time since I have been able to visit last. I would Also Like to Apologize for all of the unanswered PM's. Now, Lets get down To business! I've(unsurprisingly, Yet Sadly) noticed a lot of Complaining about the MultiPlayer in Black Ops, and I have to say I find it all absolutely Hilarious! Some of you may Remember This EXACT SAME THING Happened When World at War was Released. What Happened you ask? When World at War was Released, MANY people bought the Game Expecting to perform well online immediately, just like they did in Modern Warfare. Here's the thing: They didn…

What MK-Ultra used to be was a government mind contol movement involving real life citizens picked from the open public. Started during World War II with research on hypnosis for reducing fatigue, secure courier duties, and most importantly, interrogation. Also, used to research into effects of primitive drugs like barbiturates and cannabis as far as drug-assisted interogation goes. George Estabrooks was the leading proponent of hypnosis as the be-all and end-all of manipulating peoples minds. His book, 'Hypnotism', published in the early forties, has been decried as too fantastic and improbable in terms of describing the capabilities of hypnosis wi…

From lilmike002001 on CallofDuty.com forums "After hearing about the special edition releases of BlackOps I headed to my local gamestop to upgrade my preorder. I asked the guy behind the counter if he had anymore information on the special editions. He then handed me a pamplet of 4 papers stapled together. The front page reads 'Hardened edition details' with 4 pictures dipicting the 'medal' 'avatar outfit' 'steelbook' and a classic picture of WAW zombies on it. Under the list of 'summary of features' it says "Four exclusive Zombie maps from World at War updated for the Black Ops engine ($15 value)" Reply from Muttdawg509 "he is right, as soon as I read th…

I assume we all remember the infamous Model 1887 shotguns from MW2, correct? Well, in the new SP trailer that was posted earlier tonight, a very quick shot is shown a man on a motorcycle pursuit, and the man whose eyes you are seeing this through is holding a single Model (The scene is also very reminiscent of the motorcycle chase in Terminator 2, just BTW (anyone?)). Here are two shots I managed to grab: As you can see, the first picture just shows the one 1887 almost exactly identical to the Models in MW2. The second depicts the same badass flip-cocking that we saw with the Models (Akimbo'd) in MW2 Now, as to whether or not they are the fourth and classified…

Vahn has been very busy tweeting answers to questions about Black Ops MP. Here is all the information we have learned from this: - The FAL is single shot and the base configuration is metal. - CODPoints cannot be bought with real money or MS Points. - Need 6 people to do a Wager match. - There are 4 Snipers (I only know about the L96, the Dragunov and the WA2000, what is the 4th?) - No Danger Close Pro type perks. - You don't have to unlock everything with XP and Rank. - Attack dogs kill in one bite. - You can report boosters via their Playercard (Not Gamercard!), and then Treyarch will watch the report in Theater Mode. - Earn CODPoints by leveling u…

I have no study on this, but in my experience what you choose as your username determines how mature you are. You wanna know how? Choosing "fart specialist" (yes this is real) brings you WAAAAY down on that scale. Choosing "I make Anarchy" (another real one) brings it up and guess which one will be the better player? So, what do you guys think of my prediction?

Here is the FAQ for Black Ops in 3D. Taken from http://www.callofduty.com/3D 1. WHICH PLATFORMS SUPPORT CALL OF DUTY: BLACK OPS IN 3D? Xbox 360, Playstation 3, and PC only. 2. DO I NEED TO BUY A SPECIAL VERSION OF THE GAME IN ORDER TO PLAY IN 3D? No. The Xbox 360, PS3, and PC versions of Call of Duty: Black Ops are capable of displaying the game in active-shutter stereoscopic 3D. 3. HOW DO I TURN ON 3D? For consoles, toggling between traditional and 3D is performed through the Options Screen accessed directly from the Main Menu. On PCs where Nvidia 3D Vision™ is detected, 3D display is automatic, but users have the option of disabling 3D. 4. DO I…

Hi CODz community, First post from a far-from-first-time-member. Been browsing the site since zombies came out, I used to be JezusSaurusRex on here but I guess my account isn't active on the CODz forum anymore. I just got back from sitting in rush hour traffic for an hour to hear a GameStop employee say, "We aren't taking anymore hardened edition preorders," followed by the other employee working saying, "And neither are any other GameStops." Right then my heart sank... I'd been waiting it out to preorder and somehow I wait until the day zombies gets announced. Yet, its still almost a month and a half before the release date. The employees suggested I buy the pre…
