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.

So, during the Die Rise opening cutscene, Russman dies, and Stuhlinger, Marlton, and Misty are overrun, and presumably die as well. Shortly after, Richtofen turns back the clock in order to give them another shot at completing Richtofen's goal. The way I interpreted this was that the characters actually do die at the end of every game, considering that's the only way the game can end, and Richtofen, or previously Samantha, just resurrected them because they had not completed their goal. [tab][/tab]So, here's my theory: Dempsey, Takeo, Nikolai, and Samantha inside Richtofen's body, are dead. Why? Because Richtofen didn't need them anymore, and he knew that they were m…

Alright so I don't think anyone has ever really mentioned this quote before. It's from Dempsey in Shangri-La, upon buying the M16. "Ah, the M16. Maiming since 1964." 1iWsJODqmBw The quote is at 18:04. The M16 was designed in 1957, and serviced in 1963 (Thanks BBD). I believe Dempsey is talking about when he first used it however. Since Kino der Toten is when he had his first encounter with it, it's possible he is referring back to than. This means Kino could possibly take place in 1964. But The Fernsehturm had not started construction until 1965. And the 1975 note is there as well. So it conflicts with those as to what the true year is. However, I s…

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…

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 …

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…

Hello everyone, as most of us already know, on January 24th JimmyZ tweeted the following: "Where there's a bomb, there is also a brain. But what's this? It's happening all over again..." Now, most everyone is saying that this points to Marlton at the bomb shelter on Nuketown zombies, but I'm not so sure. I haven't really done a lot of digging, and I could be completely wrong here, but I was just thinking about the allusion to a "Bomb". Sure, it more than likely is hinting us towards Nuketown, but what about something in World at War? Think about this... "It's happening all over again..." so, when was the first instance of this happening? Certainly not Nuket…

After listening to the gameover song a bit, it reminded me a lot of Egyptian music, and that got me thinking: could the next map be in Egypt? if so here are some ideas: Time:late evening Fog---> becomes open desert, or a sandstorm, no denizens but harder to see or possibly traps/quicksand in the desert... Not as much desert either as green run... In certain areas, the "fog" is replaced by water and can become hazardous if you leave the shallow area, as zombies and other nusenses can pop up from the depts of one of the few water-areas left on earth... Wonder weapon: 115-entrusted scepter and crop, duel wield, scepter acts as a missile and blows up …

So, Being a huge diehard fan of the zombies storyline since the beginning, and a fan of ARGs, After looking back at the entire plotline of Zombies, Treyarch has actually made a shiver go up my spine. Think about it, they have linked together almost all of the major conspiracy theories of our time into one, solid backstory that mostly precedes the zombies themselves. Not to mention (though they did say otherwise) how the campaign and zombies seemed to link in multiple locations, and connect real-world happenings with modern-day conspiracies. One thing that made me almost laugh, was the very first mission in Black Ops, when raiding Fidel's mansion.... Doesn't the …

I'm sure we've all seen the zombies poster thing, and have wondered how Samantha's body changed (in case you forgot, Samantha, an 8 year old girl, swapped bodys with richtofen, a 40 year old man). One possibility I came up with was that Samantha's spirit caused the body to change from disgusting old man, to HOT GIRL. Thoughts? Comments? Leave them here!

I hadn't seen element 115 discussed with regards to the new black op game, and I think that we need to redefine what we think of it for several reasons- 1. Centre of Disease Control (and prevention) and their role in the game. 2. The mass infection of earth. 3. The CIA's vested interests in zombies. 4. The relative of meteors in Green Run and Nuketown 5. Need for a new storytelling device 1. I guess the CDC is an organisation which could easily be demonised, a sort-of Umbrella Corporation for CoD. What I thought was, if they are controlling against disease why are they fighting and presumably researching a plague caused by a rock? Maybe this is because ele…

Hey guys, I'm fairly new to the forum. Well, I actually just made this account to share my theory in all of this. I haven't been a die-hard Zombies story-line fan for long, but have gotten more and more interested in it recently and with the mysteries of TranZit and NukeTown Zombies, it's been making me wonder. So my theory is that there IS an Easter egg on NukeTown Zombies (Which is a popular idea.) The Easter Egg releases Marlton from the bunker, but not out to the NukeTown map, it actually releases him underground towards possibly Green Run/TranZit? You can hear the bus horn from TranZit on NukeTown Zombies because TranZit's locations are across the lake/land …

So I've heard the idea of a Paris map being thrown around the forum for a long time now and I decided to do my own research. How could Paris, in this case the Eiffel tower, fit into zombies. Well I'm here to present my findings. Secret Project: Eiffel Cannon: http://revealedconspiracies.blogspot.ca/ This is for sure my favorite theory. It's the idea that the Eiffel tower could be used in an experimental space program. A French space technology enterprise, helped by chosen NASA and ESA specialists, discovered that the tower could be used as an advanced space travel device. The structure would be used as the skeleton for the device, with the other necessary te…

Hey all, welcome to the first thread of the Order of Forgotten Mysteries! Based on this thread, I thought it might be a nice idea of every now-and-then (like every week or something) release a thread like this, discussing a certain story aspect that is often forgotten or not solved yet. It’s not about the OP thread but more about your comments, as I hope it will spark some personal ideas for y’all, and we might come to a conclusion for every mystery. And most importantly: have fun. I hope I will post some mysteries that will give you the idea of “oh yeah, I forgot about that one”. Phew, I made this intro way too hurry. Anyway, I'm excited about the material we…

Hi all. I originally posted this on the callofduty.com community forums, but I get the sense that you fine people take analysis of Easter Egg clues a little more seriously. I've got an alternative interpretation for a few of those morse code messages. My approach was to assume that each of the messages actually served a practical and/or instructive purpose (because developers don't sit around writing morse code into traffic lights for no reason). Here's what I came up with: Help me so I can help you - The messenger has a task for you, and apparently it's in your best interests to complete it. Power is knowledge - Interpreted bluntly, Gain the Power and yo…

Guten abend everyone, it is that time again for our weekly discussions in the Order of the Forgotten Mysteries. As you might see, this is episode 10 already, which is why I'd be proud to celebrate! How? In honour of @RadZakpak, who did an awesome job helping me with the Order, I'll devote this thread to one of his first discussion posts, debating the subject of the time between Kino der Toten and Ascension. Let the old school theorizing continue! Why Ascension is an important map Reading the Timeline scraps of Shi no Numa and Der Riese, we read that upon getting his diary back, Richthofen's plan is to simply teleporting back to the Moon and confronting…

Okay, I'm going to keep this Write up short, since I've had to write it twice since when I wrote it the first time, it crashed. My theory is that Stulinger was injected with 115, thats why he keeps claiming he was 'Probed', instead of being probed he was injected. Its made him crazy and it shows in most of his quotes. If you didn't know, Dempsi, Nikolai and Takeo were too, injected with element 115, it gave them special traits, such as Nikolai having an unstoppable need for Vodka. Well Stulinger's trait could be him being hungry for zombies, it'd make sense, especially in most his quotes, such as Hey, Thanks for reading this short write-up and please vis…

I would like to note that a few members of this site pointed everything of this out to me, and all I did is writing it down. ALTERNATIVE UNIVERSES, or parallel universes, are the various universes the Multiverse consists of. See the Multiverse as a big bubble, containing a lot of smaller bubbles within. Or a big room, containing many boxes within. These small bubbles or boxes …

The Zombies story is filled with countless secretive, sinister organizations all following twisted agendas. One of these organizations that is often forgotten is the Majestic 12, introduced in the first chapter of the Black Ops series. Not to be confused with the Hateful 8, the Majestic 12 is a purported organization that appears in UFO conspiracy theories. It is claimed to be the code name of an alleged secret committee of scientists, military leaders, and government officials to facilitate recovery and investigation of extraterrestrial beings and technology. It was formed in 1947 by an executive order by American president Harry S. Truman to facilitate recovery and inve…

Hello again, and welcome to the second episode of the Order of Forgotten Mysteries! Its been a week and I have to be fair- you guys really amazed me with your great comments last time, and I hope your creative minds are able to handle this thread this week as well. Because I promise, this’ll be a tough one. Brace yourselves! This time we will go back to the, in my opinion, most overlooked map, including by myself. Dress yourself warm, we are going to Siberia: Call of the Dead. Up to today, this map still holds so many neglected mysteries: odd cravings in the wall, flashing and moving lights in the distance, unexplained hidden papers, unsolved possible morse co…

Firstly, I would like to thank "Tac", he pointed out that the Red Army invaded Manchuria to fight the Japanese at the end of WW2. Seriously, I'm a history major. How the hell did I overlook that!? First let's start with the most obvious Tank Dempsey: Was dispatched to Wittenau Sanitorium(Verruckt) in order to extract Dr. Peter M. but was captured. Dr. Richtofen was suspicious of Dr. Peter so had him watched closely and the soldiers at Wittenau became aware that a highly trained soldier(Marine) was headed there. Trap sprung and Tank captured for questioning-but Richtofen used him instead. Nikolai Belinski:Feared soldier of the Red Army, he was always forced to …

Back when Classified came out and textures were mined from the game, we realized that the Pack a Punch camo for the map could be one of five images, with three of them being blueprints for the Ray Gun, the Ray Gun Mk2, and the Monkey Bomb. The remaining two were collages of Intel documents from the Black Ops Campaign. Understandably, most people skipped over these because Black Ops Intel had been read and analyzed a long time ago. But after a closer inspection, there may be something more here. Here are the two images in the highest quality I could find: As far as I can tell, the two images are identical, just color inverted. On the surface they j…

I've heard a lot of theories about what became of our original crew, so here's mine. One of the achievements for the large Easter Egg in Moon was named "Cryogenic Slumber Party", so I believe that somewhere unseen on Griffin Station, Tank, Nikolai, Takeo and Sam found some Cryogenic Stasis Chambers and jumped in them in an attempt to escape the never ending fight against the Z's. If this happened, if and when we encounter them in the new time period (TranZit, Die Rise,) which is believed to be at least a couple of decades after moon, they would not have aged at all. In summary, I believe that we will encounter our original heroes, who will be the same age t…
