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.

today i opened up the new issue of gameinformer, and in one of the gamestop ad pages, it says the following: "An Expensive Designer Suit. Get a unique high-altitude flight suit for your xbox live or playstation home avatar when you pre-order Call of Duty: Black Ops." not sure if this is the only pre-order bonus, hopefully there's something else.

1 Customisation I would love to see the option to customise everything on your character to make him look as unique as possible! Being able to make him look like what ever you want would really make the game alot more personal like from being able to change the colour of his eyes to the to changing the colour of his boots would make a big difference to how you might play. What would be cool would be as you progress through the ranks, your soldier could become older and stronger and depending on how you play, you unlock perks to match that kind of play like lets say you like stealth, after about 5 ranks you would unlock silent footsteps, gille suit no matter what gun you…

Does anyone think it would be a good idea if there was a boss like every ten rounds instead of dogs if theres zombies in blackops. The boss would also be random so its not the same everytime and some harder than others so your sacred to see what you will get. I would love it anyone agree?

You guys are so hell bent on the name "Sally" and the eight tally marks meaning something about zombies returning or holding secret codes and clues that you fail to realize the dead out flat obvious of it. The name "Sally", is the name of the gun, several thousands of troops have given their guns names in the past, NO the tally marks do not represent round 8 what the [MOD REMOVED] kind of random mess is that? It's the amount of kills he's gotten with that gun. Again, soldiers have done that before, in video games, in movies and in real life. Yeah the tally marks on the gun do look like the tally marks in the game, but don't ALL tally marks look like that?

I was searching around google to find any news on the new co-op mode and I found a webpage that talks about the Treyarch studio head Mark Lamia saying to MTV Multiplayer that they are kicking out co-op campaign and making SEVERAL co-op modes in Black Ops and Mark Lamia says the co-op modes wont be like MW2's Sec Ops mode which I'm happy about. So what do you guys think the other co-op modes will be? Zombies? Aliens? Or humans brainwashed from GKnova6? [brains] I honestly cant think of any other co-op mode idea so tell me what you guys want it to be. Here is the link for the webpage that says all the details: http://www.electricpig.co.uk/2010/06/04…

Well, after a while, I just went to the IP address that was given on the poster, and then when I went to it, it said 'Call of Duty : Black Ops' (on the blue bar at the very top for Internet Explorer. For Google Chrome, the tab) So I now know that this will be the main page for Black Ops. It's still under construction, but in the near future it will be finished. Just thought I would share this. I'm new to this site, soo yeah :D

COD:BO IMDB http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1632479/ I've been checking every now and then to see if there were any new updates to the first group of actors I saw. Two new people have popped up: Emerson Brooks and Andrew Hawkes, with the latter officially doing the voice of Special Agent Hudson. Special Agent Hudson? To me that says secret government group, or maybe CIA specifically. I think this could mean we might have in-game codebreaking to do. That would be SO awesome! I plan on updating as new voice actors are added. EDIT6/1: I'm going through an Australian IGN article that was put up yesterday, an d they have a video interview with JD_2020 on the…

Ok, so in the trailer, I saw, an AK-47, an M16 (A1 vietnam era), an AUG-like gun (bullpup, silenced, scope around 0:33) and an RPD. The RPD was used in Vietnam in case anybody didn't know. It had an AK-47 style magazine. There were also Vietnamese soldiers, which is why seeing an AK-47 confuses me. Unless I mixed it up with a Vietnam variant of the gun.

Hey, guys. I know it's kind of a lot, but i have a suggestion that would be cool, for Nazi Zombies. It's a map pack called " Ground Zero ", and i figured it could be in a nuked Hiroshima setting. The zombies from Shi No Numa would (of course ) be standard. There will still be Hellhounds, but I think i came up with an excellent addition. Y'see, when you nuke a place, shadows can actually be burned into the walls. So, why not create zombies that have a " Nuclear touch ", and come out of sillouettes on the walls?. It would basically be the same as the Hellhounds in regards to power and spontenieity, but it would still add a twist that i think the zombie elites would apprecia…

What do you guys want to see treyarch put in the multiplayer for CoD7 ? Killstreaks, Vehicles, New game types, etc.... Tell us what ya think you never know who may be looking I think that they should just keep the killstreaks at 3,5,7. Otherwise you have just campers trying to get a over powered killstreak and makes the game less fun. Vehicles such as tanks or any player controlled vehicle for that matter should not be in the game. It is such a hassle to get shot down by these things. They are overpowered. For new gametypes i think they should bring demolition in from mw2. Or a new FFA mode.
