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.

A couple nights ago I managed to collect all the intel in COD:BO and I used my Handycam to capture a video of the documents. Click here if you wish to view them. I think it is in the WMD intel that specifies information concerning one "GKM", a private company that caught my interest, which to me has something to do with the unsolved backstory to the game. "GKM" reminds me of the whole "GKNOVA6" thing. I apologize if the video quality is crappy, seeing as I could only capture it all from a digital videocamera and not via a PVR; I should get a PVR sometime, especially since COD:BO MP's Theater mode isn't all it's cracked up to be. Either way, I hope you enjoy i…

hi you guys, the thing is i really would like to see some new characters. nikolai,dempsey,takeo and richtoften are nice but i think it would be really nice if they would keep it fresh. i would really like to get characters from waw for example play as sergeant reznov and sergeant roebuck. they other characters would be just like now in zombies a german guy and a japanees guy. from this comes the idea of making WaW 2. i loved Waw2 all the weapons and just the whole game WaW. in WaW 2 my idea was to have 4 campaigns -American -Russian -Japanees -German The Amercian campagne could be for example you playing as private roebuck(this plays before waw). you …

The last two days I have seen alot of people with coloured clan tag and you have to be prestige 13 to do that and the guys I saw was prestige 1 and 2. That is no good but the funny thing is that I reported them for cheating and 10 seconds in the match they were kicked from the game and possibly banned :lol:

Hello, My mappack seems to load slower than my friends ones. I deleted and re-downloaded it and it still loads slowly. For example if we get Kowloon I spawn 20 SECONDS later. Did anyone else experience this? Or can somebody help me with it?

Don't flame me if this is already a topic but I found a pattern, first strike,esclation, maybe retaliation because i think treyarch is using military terms. also a glitch kind of happened to my roommate, he went to check it out on the hard drive[because we sometime don't to play the map pack due to bugs] and it said retaliation map pack.

I think this would be a good idea. In the pre game lobby you should be able to see the previous games top ten kills. Like it seperates ten amazing kills and puts them like espn's top ten. Who thinks this would be a great idea

I just read on the Black Ops facebook that someone said the WaW maps are in the Playstation Store now. Is that true or is the guy blowing smoke up everyone's @$$? I'm not around my PS3 right now so can't look myself, but I know they wasn't as of last night when I was browsing around, unless I looked in the wrong place but pretty sure I wasn't. Don't flame me or anything for asking, just wondering.

When i was rendering a second clip, it said 'will overide previous,' i just thought it meant it would do that to what clip was being processed. i checked my fileshare, and the previous 2 clips i rendered were there. but on youtube and callofuduty.com, only the last clip is there, even though there are multiple open video slots? i thought you could have multiple clips to make montage videos? can someone more familiar with the video system explain?

If anyone has any lol, I thought it'd be cool to share either YOUR theater clips, or some of your favorites from the community that you've seen. I have quite a few clips on YouTube myself through the Theater beta on CallofDuty.com, so here's what I got: My first uploaded vid, which I call The Vertical Tomahawk: SoBCZ4GgfIs Here's The Killer Carepackage!

Hey what's up guys! I just found this online and thought it was pretty cool. It didn't have the decals on the Jeep in the picture so I wonder what it might have. Think they might hand out copies of BO with each purchase? It's the least they could do. It's $30,000! I thought the Prestige edition was a lot! http://blogs.wsj.com/drivers-seat/2010/ ... s-vehicle/ PSN: Flatlander929

Ok so I was going through the Black Ops trailers to try and find some clues about the game and at the VERY beginning of the trailer it shows Woods watching the space shuttles take off but there is documents being crossed out in front of the footage and I found these coordinates or whatever they are called getting crossed out but it says 21º 2 N 105º 51 E. Here is a picture: Once I found it I decided to type it into google earth and see what I can get out of it. Here is a picture of what the page looked like when I searched it: I then noticed that this was located in Vietnam and in the trailer picture under the coordinates is the words: Vietnam War. This m…

This is more or less a repost from another topic, but I was told to make another topic, so here I am. In this picture: There is a big sign where it says Leuna at the top. Now if we look into Leuna, we find that it's a city in Germany, where during WWII used to host one of the biggest chemical plants in Germany, and the owners were, obviously, our great friends at IG Farben, who keep being mentioned in those documents carbon received in the mail. Now this is where it gets even better. In some unclassified CIA documents, there are references about soviet scientists using that plant to research heavy water, a necessary requirement to have a nuclear …
