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.

Nice to have a choice! It's a big read but some intresting stuff.. We caught up with Treyarch Community Manager, Josh Olin, at Gamescom last week to ask a few questions about Call of Duty: Black Ops and how the shadow of MW2 has influenced development. Find out what measures Treyarch is taking for Black Ops' multiplayer, the advantages of adopting a Hollywood approach for single-player, the game's new RC cars, zombies and much, much more.

http://www.gametrailers.com/episode/bon ... ?ch=2&sd=1 I noticed that he said about the first trailer that you play as the character, and all the missions are flashbacks... so? Look at the room. remind you of anywhere (cough, gknova6) yes, and when you look at the achievements it says: escape the past... ahem. So i'm guessing gknova capture you, interigate (via electrocution "next time we'll use a higher voltage" ) etc etc, story, then escape! because of gknova6 this is actually the bit im most exited about, will it be a no action just sit there and not do much like the escape in AC2 or MW2 last mission? or will it be a REAL mission, say, the epilog…

WOO my first post!!! Anyways after watching the multiplayer teaser it was obvious that customizable killstreaks will be making a return from mw2. So what killstreaks are you guys looking forward to or not looking forward to. Personally i can't wait to hop into a private match and race those rc cars around the map, but also the napalm strike as i was very fond of the stealth bomber in mw2. Also if i remember correctly awhile back someone from treyarch said that killstreak rewards don't count toward your killstreak which means people have to earn their killstreaks which is great. thoughts on that too!!!

So far I have made two posts of this topic and both have been deleted a day ago. And I think it's because I posted a link to the video. I am almost positive I was the first one to make a thread about the topic 24 hours or so ago. I searched it and couldn't find anything yesterday. Now to the point, if you want the link to the video PM me I will GLADLY give it to you. I made this thread for everyone to talk about what they are MOST excited or disappointed about BASED on the new video. Cheers! Edit: Tell me if I should add more options to the Poll :mrgreen:

Ok guys i havent seen any topics about the CoD points system and i have noticed some confusion around the currency system so i thought id clear it up. First of all, this information is seen from videos that i have seen and from the cod black ops app for andriod.

All the assault rifles i have seen cost About 1000 CoD points though i dont know about the classified weapons cuz they are classified The attachments also cost CoD points and the most expensive once are flamethrower, grenade launcher and the supressor and they cost 1000 CoD points I have seen that …

Just thought I'd share this awesome site that releases real weapons stats. If you don't know what I mean by that, the stats out of 10 in game are, and always have been, completely wrong. By accessing the games PC files, you can get the real stats. This is really useful for class creation. This site is always consistent with new FPS's too, they have stats for a lot of games. Have fun! http://denkirson.xanga.com/735016527/black-ops/

Hey, I was just reading a short article in PLAY, and it has an interview with Mark Lamia, it has some interesting stuff in there. I can't remember if scans are allowed or not, so I thought I'd type it up and post it. What was so appealing to you about black ops? Nothing they did could be known about, so for us it was just this totally fertile ground. And creating something in this era, doing Call of Duty: Black Ops, it was a totally ownable space for us to create this game. It was all inspired by what could have happened, or what did happen, or what we didn't know about what happened. What people think they know about this period is definitely not everything and is…

Wouldnt it be so cool if you could use wonder weapons in multiplayer in black ops? You could use a thundergun or a wunderwaffe as a primary and a ray gun or winters howl for secondaries. You could use 3 nazi zombie perks ect double tap=rapid fire,speed cola=sleight of hand(phd flopper no close up damage or splash damage and nuke effect.

I quit playing BO a few months ago and when I heard there was a patch I wanted to try it again to see if I could squeeze enough entertainment out of multiplayer to justify buying the map pack for Ascension. I was completely disappointed when my PSG with acog would only register every fifth shot(over blown depiction). So how are you guys doing with your connection? Note: The matches that I played in I was mostly four bars but sometimes I was three.

I think some of the pro perks effects are overpowered and others underpowered. For example, ghost pro gives you no gamertag shown when aimed at and people can't see you with infrared scopes and Helicopters can't see you, while lightweight pro only gives you no fall damage. Another example is hacker pro ( i love it btw), You can hack carepackages and equipment and turrets and not get seen by motion sensors while marathon pro only gives you unlimited sprint. What I try to say is that they should have putted other pro effects to perks like lightweight or marathon to balanced it a little more because its not the same to pay 3000 cod points for ghost pro than to pay the …
