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.

it would be a very creative yet fascinating twist in the Zombie storyline. And be sure to include more references to the nazi vril to explain why they wanted to contact another dimension. 8-)

Prologue: My name is Hershel Steven Luxwix, it is august 4th, 1993… The war is over… I ended it… Broke the seal… Most of humanity was either destroyed by the war… Or mutated back to either mute forms of basic traders… or changed into a variety of disturbing creatures. From what I know of this universe is that despite it's look, it is nothing like my old earth… Here everything is separated into cubes with widths, heights, and lengths of almost a meter. Most of these blocks can defy gravity and physics it's self. Furthermore the resources here are far more manageable, as I am able to construct simple materials into hardened tools with ease… Other…

First, I will start with Blundell's phrasing. NoahJ456 ZnS reveal stream: 14:52- "We're talking about multiverses... we're talking about the fracturing of time." Notice he says multiverses as opposed to multiverse (plural not singular). "The fracturing of time", you will see how consistent of a theme this is. 15:15- "...with the split universe, multiverses, (the) gang traveling around (with) the use of teleporters, and so forth. All these aspects are shaping the maps and shaping the worlds. You can't really think of it in a contiguous way..." "The split universe" singular? ... Why? "Multiverses" and plural aga…

"Stormbound" by Kevin Sherwood is a song that released with the Chaos map "Ancient Evil", and for that reason it has been viewed as being intrinsically tied to the Chaos story along with "Drowning" and "Mystery", but I think there's another way to look at the song. Kevin is no stranger to double meanings in his songs, with some meanings sometimes only becoming apparent when looking back years later. I think it is worth re-examining these songs through the lens of the Aether story as well, especially considering that this very song is referenced in "Alone" which follows the Aether story. "Stormbound" in particular has many elements that can tie it to Aether very nicely, an…

Today I had this random thought: Why does Victis need to get the Elemental Shard in the comics again? I've asked several other questions like it for a while now like: Why did Sophia appear in what seemed to be a Broken Arrow base? How exactly did Victis get into Zero Base? What was Primis Richtofen's plan? Because the comics are difficult to find online, the story contained within them seems to often get overlooked with the abbreviated version of events in the comics sufficing. But with Victis' story wrapped up (seemingly,) I'd like to revisit the comics and do a basic recap of events, while also discussing what we overlooked that was significant. …

Stumbled upon this video not too long ago and it was really intriguing. I understood most of the storyline before hand but this video displays it nicely and also mentioned some things i've never realized! I recommend you to check it out if you have not seen it already! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eccvQvPApHY ALL credits to RADAUSTINS27, this is his video, not mine.

"Accept Your Fate, BEGIN ANEW!" This line has been brought up time and time again, and yet it still seems to be one of the most overlooked quotes in Zombies history. It is essentially establishing a canonical rule of the Call of Duty Zombies storyline. There was a time loop in Shangri-La, and it would repeat the cycle only once all people in said cycle died. There was a time loop in Die Rise, and it would repeat the cycle only once all people in said cycle died. There was a time loop in Mob of the Dead, and it would repeat the cycle only once all people in said cycle died. The pattern is quite clear. And so, we begin to see the significance of "accept your fat…

Need some people interested in writing,voice acting, and producing a narrative focusing on the story we love so much, I want to translate what we know and what is widely accepted as the storyline to translate it to an episodic audio series that takes the story and translates it into a more linear narrative. If anyone is interested in joining the team please add me on skype. If you have skills in audio editing/voice acting/writing or any combination of those skills please consider being apart of something new and fresh in the zombies community.

We have been thinking and have been looking for a thread that recaps the zombies storyline. If one has been made please direct us towards it. However, in the case that one has NOT been made, I feel it is up to us, the community, to begin revisiting the past and start forming a basic timeline. I understand the the Call of Duty Wiki site has one but I find their information unreliable. So let's begin with some basic storyline elements and start configuring a basic timeline. I trust everyone has a map that they absolutely know a lot about so share the information you know about it and let's get started. We will be scouring the web for good solid information in hopes to …

In the latest Podcast der Toten, Rad, Mattzs and Tac notice the odd yet striking similarity between the Excavation Drill in Origins and the one at Groom Lake. One could speculate that either one of the parties, Broken Arrow or Group 935, inspired the other. Logically, as Group 935 is an organization being active prior to Broken Arrow, you might argue that it was G935 that came up with the design originally, being backwards developed in the Cold War by the Broken Arrow program. However, I’m of the opinion that it was rather reversed. Enjoy this thread! I always found the name Origins a bit twisted. Chronologically it is the first map taking place, in 1918, and…

Hello everybody, today I will introduce you to a theory where we consider the Illuminati as the human branch of the Keepers. I made this thread as a script for a video I will start to work on soon, so I thought: Why not release it on the Forums as well? The Illuminati are considered to be the hidden rulers of the world in the Zombies universe, so how would this connection with the Keepers work out? Why do they do it, and what are the arguments? The Illuminati as the human branch of the Keepers To begin with, both the Ancient Order of the Keepers and the Illuminati are referred to as "the Order", with capital 'O'. The Illuminati are clearly aware of the ex…

Now this is something which I would really like to see some discussion on. Here are a couple little pieces of Monty's dialogue: "the universe is fractured and broken. Something that you clowns hold more than at least some degree of responsibility for." "this big, change-y, already volatile universe... and then you shatter it with a hammer. A metaphorical hammer. And it cracks and splinters into a million other universes. All coexisting at exactly the same time..." "He opened the portal between the worlds and well, that's where, when shit really went tits up." "You all fought in World War I... That was true, that happened. Later, some other version…

The V-R11 is a classic, odd wonder weapon from Call of the Dead with a great deal of mystery surrounding its origins. There has been a great deal of speculation and theorizing, but I think I may have a connection to help a few more things make some sense. Let's start with what we know: The name V-R11 is obviously leetspeak for Vril, the mysterious and somewhat vague substance created by the Vril-Ya which is able to bring about life, just as the V-R11 seemingly brings Zombies back into a living form. Let us not forget that Vril technology has not been completely retconned from Zombies, but rather has been embraced. To this day, the Golden Rod is still called th…

For those who wish to see the video version of this post: https://bit.ly/317Tgrh However, if you wish to instead read my thread or have a transcipt, keep reading: For quite some time, the Napalm Zombie from Shangri-La has never really had his identity known. With his threatening appearance and questionable moveset, it makes for an interesting discussion. This video will discuss my theory, with the help of my friends, on who the Napalm Zombie is, and what his true origins are. First off, let's discuss what Shangri-La was supposed to be… What it was supposed to be: Looking in the gamefiles, we can see that Shangri-La was supposed to …

For those that have played through Tag der Toten's main quest, the notion that Richtofen has in some way won may seem outright incorrect - after all, we see his death, a surprise bullet to his already rotting corpse. I was very much of this way of thinking, however recently I've went back for a second look over the map, BO4 and the story as a whole, and realised certain inconsistencies with this as well as evidence that points towards this alternative view (furthermore, I will be ignoring the wishes made upon the Agarthan device, as if they have come true, those characters are - for all intents and purposes - now normal people). In Tag der Toten, we learn of t…

Some time ago, our comrades @RadZakpak and @Carnage Evoker had a rather interesting discussion about the appearance and role of green light throughout several zombie maps. Green light doesn't appear often, but when it does it is exclusively associated with a paranormal and unnatural event. We have experienced it in: The Shadows of Evil intro cutscene, every time a character commits a murder. The green lantern post in Morg City. The green lanterns in Tranzit, allowing Denizens to dig a hole. The portals appearing around a stone pillar upon doing a 'skull cleansing ritual' in Zetsubou. The light of the submarine beams in Call of the Dead, all…

"Does the Siberian Outpost exist in the Der Eisendrache universe?" It might be a risky thing to say, and you probably think "Why not?". I wanna say that I self really don’t know, but in the following thread I will talk about the idea of the Eagle's Nest being the "Siberian Outpost" of that universe. Point 1: The Siberian Outpost is never mentioned in any quotes, ciphers or radios. What was exactly the function of the Siberian Outpost in Black Ops 1? The things we know about it is that it was a place where Richthofen experimented on his testsubjects: Nikolai, Takeo, Tank and the Mexican subject Pablo, who eventually died because his spleen was cut out. Lets look to t…

The Universe, Universes, Dimensions, Realms, Multiverses, and what to call them all So, this will be a short, but hopefully clarifying and enlightening, post on... well, what is in the title. The first thing that you need to know to understand what I will be saying is that there are two sets of terms for these things. There is the technically correct real life terminology for these things, which is far more clear and easy to understand. Then there is the in-game terminology that is used. So, I will break down each thing individually. Technical Term: "Multiverse"/ In-Game Term: "The Universe"/ Convenience Term: "Multiverse" So, a …

Alright you guys. The trailer was released today. Watch it if you haven't yet. Idea's on the look of the new game? I think the first map is called Tranzit right? Looks pretty epic, but it's only one map. They should release at least three plus the bonus maps. Any ideas yet?
