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.

One of our moderators, MINUS_Stl found this profile on Xbox.com, it was originally posted via his Twitter. The page doesn't seem to load right now but the gamertag is "BLACK OPS TEAM" and it is a person named Tom from Leicester, England. It's funny because I knew someone named Tom from Leicester aswell.

I just kinda wondered how many people pre-ordered cause they couldn't wait a day to buy and how many people are just gonna buy it whenever lol Personally I didn't pre-order, just because I wasn't too worried about missing anything by buying it a day later. Is that just me, or did other people do what I did? :?

Found shipping log in convoy, it has the name of every map and i says how many crates and barrels were delivered, just thought it was cool also theres 5 more spaces on the list, maybe there is no Convoy on the list so i guess that takes up 1 space, so maybe this means there are only 4 more maps left? Meaning only 1 more map pack?

I think it would be fun to have a graveyard map that zombies come out of the ground. It would just be hilarious to see a camper sitting in a corner get raped by 2 zombies. Also it would be scary if you hear footsteps and turn around and a zombie is right in your face.

Hi All, if any of you remember my post about OXM mentioning Black Ops 2 (if not its here:http://callofdutyzombies.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=53&t=7319) So, in the post I basically say that the OXM Crystal Ball mentioned that Black Ops 2 might be treyarchs next Call of Duty. Now, the Crystal Ball has had many correct "predictions", a notable one being Halo Combat evolved anniversary, as well as its release date. Now, I got my most recent issue yesterday, and in THIS Crystal Ball, it mentions Black Ops 2 YET AGAIN. It says, and I quote "...What will Treyarch's 2012 Call of Duty game be? Bet on Black Ops 2, says the Ball..." Now, this may not be big n…

A new interveiw has popped up with a favorite again Josh Olin. Video gamer: http://www.videogamer.com/news/devs_can ... yarch.html Preveiw: "It is unfortunate that those [bugs] have to exist at all. In an ideal would we would love to ship a completely bug-proof game. I can't think of a single developer in the world, though, that could achieve that," he added. Singling out the PS3 version of Black Ops - which has so far enjoyed a reputation of being inferior to the Xbox 360 version - Olin pointed out that the vast majority of PS3 players are happy with the game. "There's hundreds of thousands - if not millions - of players on the PS3 who have absolutely…

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fgmCVbR0H8o I know there is a lot of hate surrounding Black Ops, but when you aren’t being a try-hard and when you use non-popular weapons, then you can have a lot of fun in this game!

I found this for you guys. Thought It was pretty Interesting! This is the voice/actor that explains the numbers in the beginning, and throughout the story: Emmanuelle Chriqui :shock: Emmanuelle Chriqui was born in Montreal, Quebec, to Moroccan immigrants. Her family moved to Toronto when she was 2 years old. At the age of 10, Chriqui appeared in a McDonald's commercial. She moved to Vancouver guest-starring in series such as "Are You Afraid of the Dark?" (1991), Forever Knight, "Once a Thief" (1996), and "PSI Factor: Chronicles of the Paranormal" (1996). Her first Hollywood role was in Detroit Rock City (1999). Her breakout performance came in 2000's Snow…

well, its been a long road, and thankfully its almost to an end. i have been looking forward to this game ever since the viral GKnova6 campaign. it is now, that i decide to make a list of what i am most excited about. 1: FREAKBAGZ!! 1/2: Single Player campaign. 2: "RC-XD ready for deployment" (mp) 1: everyone knows why we love freakbagz. they're the reason this site was even MADE! 1/2: TBH, i found the WaW campaign to be far more entertaining than CoD:4's. idk why, it just seemed more... arcade style? which is what i like. it was DEFINITELY better than MW2's fantasy BS though. i don't have a problem with fantasy, but its hard to make a transition from t…

In the beginning of the MP footage you can see that the persons clan tag is on the back of the gun, "TMKS". The writing on the gun also look similar to the "SALLY" thats on the handgun. Is this something they were "hiding" from us by putting it right infront of us? Also theres a "mAc" clan, woot woot represent.

On black ops 24/7 they had an article about the campaign and the course that it takes, it says SPOILER that the main character Mason is in either present time or the future, being interrogated but some people.Mason goes through flashbacks of what happened in the cold war now my theory he is in the OLD Gknova 6 room but then an outbreak happens and the zombie outbreak happens and he sees the outbreak on the monitors. I now this won't happen and that it is kinda stupid im just giving my theory. P.S Please don't flame
