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 have a friend who is a moderator over at 7 sins and he has informed me that there is a hacker preparing to launch a massive spoiler campaign, much like halololol. I cannot stress enough how little spoilers are tolerated on this forum, and the CODHQ. Im aware carbon has posted the announcement but for some reason nobody seems to adhere by it. So, PLEASE do no post any of the spoilers on the website, you way watch them in your own time but if you post them they will be deleted and you will most likely be banned. So dont waste you time and just wait for the game, were so close!

...is addictive Just finished a few games of gun game on wager match and boy was it fun. Certain areas of the maps had been closed off on the larger maps and that threw me at first, but once I finish my tea and posting here I am going back for more. So who here has tried out the wager matches? Are you enjoying them as I am and what would be your favourite wager match mode?

I had the MOST BIZARRE glitch today whilst playing Multiplayer on that castle-map-thingy. (I don't know the name, it includes a fountain and a pool). At one point, I was shooting people below from a window, when white font appeared on my screen. It said "Exiting" and that's it! It didn't remove anything, it didn't change anything at all. It was just text, in the top centre of the screen! IT WAS RANDOM! I was like "omffg, wtf is that? It's not gonna boot me is it?" After about 30 seconds, it just disappeared again... WTF WAS IT?? :D Sooo random!!!!!

Hi everyone. I'm kind of new to this website so please don't blame me for posting something stupid but I found on a website called VideoGamesBlogger that there is information hinting at Black Ops II. -So. If you find all the intel in the last mission, Redemption, you'll hear the CIA discussing how Jason Hudson, Alex Mason and Grigori Weaver are national security threats and the SAS is sending a special agent called Jonathan to eliminate them. The memo is dated October 1978 which is 10 years after Black Ops ends. -You'll also find an email on Masons computer. The memo is date 1978 and is warning Mason to stay out of South Africa because the CIA is planning on him to sl…

Wouldnt it be cool if you had your killstreak under your radar, for easier access? just imagine this, you are on a 23 killstreak (but you dont know this of course) with a nuke selected, you are getting really tense and you check the scoreboard to try and figure out what your streak is. Then a sniper kills you cause you arent moving. If you had died several times before you got your large killstreak going it may have taken a while to figure out your streak. it would be a nice feature in Black Ops IMO. Anyone else agree? It would probably look something like this

I would just like to take a second out of all of this black ops info/visual goodness to thank all of the admin/staff/members of this fantastic site. Each and everyone of you have played a key roll in helping the time since the reveal fly by. And now with black ops only a few weeks away I want to remind everyone that the real fun hasn't even begun yet! I'm excited to see what the guys over at treyarch have in store for us and even more excited to see what the codz community will do with it. Im looking forward to hours and hours of zombies, dead ops, and mp with my fellow codzers. We finally made it my friends! Hail Treyarch!

Title pretty much says it all. Nuketown is a great map, sure. It's compact, fun to play in, and it's nice and bright (also, double rainbow duuuuuudes). However, it does get boring after the first 50 times playing it IN A ROW. Seriously. It get's boring. Even when launch is up for the grabs, people still vote for previous map (I think it's safe to say that Launch is a pretty awesome map). Or, if no other decent map is up, just select the random option. I just don't understand how people could play this map so many times without playing another map. Yes you can back out, but it takes a little while to find a game, and I'm not the most patient of people (let's be honest he…

Hey, guys just so you know this is my first time posting so...um...i might suck. Anyways, here is some stuff that came to me today about Zombies in WaW and Possibly Black Ops. OK, starting off, and the beginning of Shi No Numa if you turn on those radios it leads you to coordiantes in Area 51, and remember Dr Maxis was like "The Americans have a large supply of element 115 at the nevada base"? that basically confirms area 51 with TWO MAPS WITH EASTER EGGS OF AREA 51!!! OK, next, do you guys know where it has Dr. Maxis's name and a field ops manual? THats where I think that Maxis and Edward tried to escape with a hellhound chasing them (fluffy) (the pawprint on the wall) …

So with the multiplayer trailer out i was wondering what your favorite new weapon/idea is.... mine has to be that sort-of-ballistic knife, shoots the blade out! then you slot it back in and use it as a normal knife... and my favorite idea is the new rolling feture, in the trailer at 0:35 onwards (bottom right) it looks so funny! what i think is stupid is the prestiege version of the game, it comes with all the hardened stuff, but plus what can only be described as a toy car PgQyyoHDIzQ what i spotted: crossbow - without singleplayer defult sights ballistic knife what looks like a Arkangel missile, im guessing its used like a predator, seemed to …
