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.

Yesterday I was just spit-balling some ideas regarding the Nova Crawlers with @Mattzs, trying to reconcile the old theory that they are related to the Keepers in some way with the new information that their bodies were once pigs. I have a theory that might have some broader implications on the history of humanity and its relation to the Keepers, so bear with me for a bit. Let's start with the crawlers themselves. Here we have some extra info about them from Classified: Notice how the pig is labeled as pre-transformation, while the final nova crawler is labeled as post-transformation. The crawlers are certainly pigs that have been genetically …

What the Eye Colors of the Zombies could very well mean Alright, many of us have been wondering about what the eye colors of the zombies mean. It used to be simple, back when it represented who was in control. But that is clearly no longer the case. With all of the chaos in changing universes and such, we need a more solid and universal explanation for this mystery. First, a quick recap of the eye colors we have seen: Yellow: Blue: Red: And the one you weren't expecting... purple: (This theory disregards the green eyed zombies as a gameplay mechanic.) Now, I'm going …

I'd like to start some general discussion on this topic as it has kind of confused me and I have not seen a general consensus on it, and that topic is: When does the Zetsubou No Shima Brock and Gary cipher take place? And in what timeline of events? Here is the cipher translation in question: Now I ask, is this freak atmospheric event something that happened after Richtofen and co. help Brock and Gary escape Shangri-la? Or is this cipher meant to imply the world thinks they died in the plane crash, when in actuality they survived, and continue through the events of the map Shangri-La? This would have to mean they knew about the location of Shangri-La…

Ok so lets start off at the easter egg: So Richtofen the evil mad scientist guy switches bodies with Samantha, making Richtofen the "Ruler or something.." of the zombies. So, now whenever you get a power up (Max ammo, Insta-Kill, Deathmachine etc.) you hear richtofen say it. Also the zombies eyes become blue. So Samantha wants revenge for switching bodies and killing/making him dissappear right after the 3 rockets go to earth. Then, Takeo the annoying guy gets his memory back and wants revenge and wants to destroy 115 or something. Now, if you teleport back to area 51, you can see that your off of earth so AREA 51 either got blown off ear…

Theres no denying it, zombies will return. The only question is 2012 or 2013?? What im curious about is will the gang return? I think they likely will but maybe in a smaller role now on to my reasons why. For starters all of the maps from verruckt onwards that have contained demps&co have had a teaser sample for the next elena song on the game over screen (cotd and five both have different songs and different heroes) moon has no such song. Now im not saying she wont be signing another contract to do some songs for blops2 but she was intentionly left off the moon maps game over screen. I think they will be in the effiel tower map and it could be the conclusion to blop…

We all know (or guess, depending on your mindset) that zombies is about to take a turn for the awesome. But the question on everyone's mind is: what maps will be used, and how will they relate to the storyline? Here is a prediction I have. We've had a snow map, a jungle map, a space map; the only two things we haven't seen are a desert map, or an underwater map. Think about this story wise: the desert map could take place where they tested nuclear weapons, so there might be zombies there with horrible disfigurations. And who's to say that Group 935 didn't have a hand in developing the nuclear bomb. Or, at the very least, fueling it. (115, anyone?) And with an und…

Where do you think the vast zombies storyline is going next? Feel free to post any suggestions! I think that Sam is not happy being in Richtofen's body, so maybe she must be reborn (somehow) to be back in her female body. How this will be done I have no idea. What will be the main goal of the zombie team though? Now they know that Richtofen wants to control the world (hence he is controlling the zombies), so they will obviously stop it. Now they have Samantha, who knows from 1st hand knowledge, the best ways to kill zombies, so now they will be more efficient.

So, the Keepers and the Apothicons. Technically they are the same beings, but one of them is just corrupted and corroded by the evil of the Dark Aether. What exactly is it that makes The Keepers and Apothicons who they are though? Is there someone in control of them or are they simple beings with free will similar to you or I? In this theory of mine, I will attempt to explain to you what I believe controls each of these forces of both light and darkness. Let's begin with the Keepers. Intelligent life-forms that were around when time and space itself didn't even exist yet. Who was the first among the Keepers? One could argue that it was Monty or Shadowman. You …

Welcome to Whose Drill Is It Anyway?, the thread where the questions are made up and the answers don't matter. If you're privy to the concept of drills in Zombies, the first thing you may think of is the drill present in the Nuketown loading screen: This was later expanded (literally) by the alternate loading screen from the comics, which just shows a wider view of each of the above panels, and reveals Schuster is someone present during this drilling: In addition to Nuketown, and I did not realize this until yesterday, a drill very similar in design appears in a drawing on Origins: The very unique shape of both implies to me th…

I'm a huge fan of zombies but I have never understood their actual reason for collecting the souls in the summoning key. In particular, why are they travelling to specific universes to capture specific versions of themselves souls. Is there something special about those particular versions? I've searched high and low on the internet and watched countless youtube videos but none of them explain this!

It seems to me that many people have forgotten the Ancient Evil and its significance to the story. Many people have been assuming that the Ancient Evil is the Apothicons, but that doesn't seem to add up quite right. For any who do not know, the Ancient Evil is an aetherial/etherial "entity" that we know woefully little about. It was quite prevalent in MotD, and is often associated with a very distinct aesthetic design style. This style is red, orange, fiery, and demonic. Typically wherever the Ancient Evil's influence is, there are demonic sacrifices, strange and archaic-looking symbols written in blood, and most importantly zombies. He has been speculated to …

Hey all! Today Dizzie reminded me on Discord about the presence of Ultimis in Black Ops I Nacht and Verrückt, and about the canonity of that. It motivated me to write down a theory I had in my head for some time now, so here it is. Enjoy the read! First of all, I’d like to note that this idea is based on @caljitsu's “On Fractures” as groundtheory. His hypothesis states that upon the creation of a Fracture, the new reality doesn’t simply split off the old one, but rather replaces it. The amount of linear timelines remains the same, but it is merely overwritten by altering events in the past. I’ve clarified this theory with the diagram beneath, where Hypothesis …

So, something I have been curious about for a while now concerning the first six issues of comics involving Victis, is that throughout the first three issues, the zombies have no color in their eyes. Which would mean no one in the Aether is controlling them. Which makes sense considering Victis is seemingly sent to another alternate Earth different from the one Tranzit, Die Rise, and Buried took place in as Maxis DESTROYED that version of Earth. However, in issues 4-6, after Victis is transported to the "Empty Earth" to acquire the Kronorium, the zombies that appear and chase after them very distinctly have yellow eyes. This is evident in several panels of each issue, eve…

Nan Madol is a ruined, partly overflooded city on the island of Pohnpei "upon (pohn) a stone altar (pei)", around the tropical equator in the Pacific. The site core with its stone walls encloses an area approximately 1.5 km long by 0.5 km wide and it contains nearly 100 artificial islets, stone and coral fill platforms, bordered by tidal canals. The original name of Nan Madol was Soun Nan-leng (Reef of Heaven), and it was the capital of the Saudeleur Dynasty until 1928. Nan Madol functioned as an inspiration for Lovecraft's lost city R'lyeh, and both locations are close to the Pacific pole of inaccessibility (48°52.6′S 123°23.6′W), a point in the ocean farthest…

I am going to say this first. This is a theory... actually, at this point I'm reluctant to even call it a theory at this point. It has very little evidence to back it up, however, from what I have seen, virtually no evidence to disprove it. So, at the moment, I am just going to call this "speculation". This is based off of one of my theories/hopes for what happens in DLC 3 & 4, and will most likely be either proved or disproved in those maps. First, my over-generalized summary of eye colors and what they signify. Yellow: Apothicon control or influence Blue: Vril-ya control or influence Red: Ancient Evil contr…

So the most popular theory about the "ending" in origins goes like this: 1-samantha is trapped in agartha. 2-the players (Tank, Nikolai, Takeo, Richtofen) does the easter egg (little lost girl) and frees samantha from agartha. 3-samantha says that their award awaits them, they just need to step into the light. 4- Samantha gains ultimate power from being free from the limitations that she had before, she wishes to make everything normal again. 5-the cutscene begins, she is in her room with her friend and fluffy (her dog) is alive and so is her father. So everything is back to normal, but the toys in her room, pretty much everything from COD WaW zombies …

Well I´ve thought this through a lot so I hope that this theory might earn some credit. Remenber that in MOTD zombies eyes were red right? Well there has been some rumors about a demon that controls zombies en MOTD. Well, what if the demon needed someone to control the zombies and anhilate mankind? (In this case it would be Samantha) She couldn´t defeat the Original Charachters so Richtofen took control. Well my thery is that the Demon is currntly ordering Richtofen to kill the Green Run charachters. But why doesn´t he just do it? Perhaps that is why he is keeping them alive and telling Samuel to not help Maxis. So, what if when the three polarization devices are set t…

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 …
