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.

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…

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…

Spoiler In the beginning, and believe me there was a beginning, everything was in its proper place. Time was linear, just as it should be. But a little thing called Element 115 changed all that. Especially when, what was it again? Oh yes, when Group 935 came along. Once they started messing around with it, they buggered everything up. 115 shouldn't even exist in your dimension! But, nonetheless, here we are! Bloody teleporters. In the beginning, time was linear. There was actually only one universe. Note that universes are different things then dimensions. There were more dimensions, probably always been: The first dimension (1D), the second dimension…

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!

DISCLAIMER: This thread goes into detail. If you want to get an overview of the points I'm making, just scroll down to the bottom where it says "Conclusions". Though I would definitely recommend you read through the entire post to truly understand it.Today I'm going to discuss one of the less understood, but most important concepts in Zombies: the different realms, or worlds, within Zombies. I will also discuss the effect that time has on each of these realms. The three realms I'm referring to are the physical, Aether, and Agartha realms.To understand the story behind Zombies, it's crucial you understand how each of these realms works and how they interact with each other…

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…

There were already mentions to the Aether in the early maps of CoDZ. The wall writing in Der Riese saying "Return through Aether", the teleporters, the radios. They all referred in some way to an electromagnetic realm beyond our perception. Black Ops 1 and 2 proved that even more. Once you accessed the Aether, you would become omnipotent, immortal and were able to communicate via Element 115. Element 115 was a bridge between our dimension, and the one above us. Despite its powers, the Aether became associated with Hell. Think about Fluffy becoming a Hellhound while teleporting through Aether. Richthofen becoming evil and insane after touching the with the Aeth…

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 …

"The Paradox Must be Resolved. The Loop Must be Closed." This quote has surfaced three times now. Three times under very different circumstances. The first is towards the end of the Origins Easter Egg Maxis will say "I must go to her. The paradox must be resolved. The loop must be closed". He says this right before he enters the portal that presumably takes him to Samantha. The second time we see this quote surface is in one of Der Eisendrache's radio messages,"Several individuals reported hearing the same exact words: I must go to her; the loop must be closed. While most accounts claim that the words were spoken by an unidentified individual, several seem to…

So finally: Comic #3 is out! Here follows a short summary of what happened, but its only from my perspective, so I recommand to view the comic yourself. Buy it, see it on Imgur or watch it on Youtube. Spoiler As the Tranzit crew feels that their time has come, and zombies, still led by the Zombie Richthofen, are all over the place, the voice in Samuel's head let again a portal appear. The TranZit crew goes through this portal, away from the Broken Arrow base, as they have acquired the Element 115 piece. They appear to be in another secret base, named "Zero Base". The zombies have followed them though the mysteriously appearing portal and whil…

*cracks knuckles* Alrighty. I've kinda been sitting on this for a while, but here goes. There's a theory that I'm fairly certain is canon, although it's never been referred to explicitly in-game, and I haven't heard any talk of it in the theory community, so sit down and get ready for the crash course. It more or less reconciles the Multiverse theory with the presence and mechanics of Souls in zombies. First thing's first, let's make sure we get the theory's foundation in Multiverse theory. Multiverse So first of all, the multiverse theory (or some variation) is more or less explicitly canon. Multiverse has been used a lot …

After Origins, the goal of Richtofen etc is to find the childrens (Sam and Eddy from the ending of Origins), but they also have to fight the obscures forces wich want to accelerate de destruction of the parallels worlds (Apothicon, Shadowman etc). Because of all the paradoxes caused by Richtofen etc, several dimensional rifts have been open (that's why there is the MotD's plane in the roof of The Giant), or Maxi's plan in the ending of Origins was to open several dimensional rifts for let's come the heroes of his childrens, either one or the other rason, Samantha has been "corupted" by some obscures forces, and she is missing, she has been captured by those forces. …

Within Black Ops 3's filler arc, we are introduced to the concept of "Fractures". At face level, they seem to be a clever narrative tool in order to take real locations and make them more interesting (i.e. Stalingrad with Dragons) - however I believe there *is* a narrative explanation. However first, let's clear up some misconceptions: Fractures are NOT "Dimensions" This is an easy trap to fall into, but the distinction is important. Dimensions differ in that entire world histories can be different, people can die at different times, people's personalities can differ, people can even be born a different gender. The specific differentiation between dimensi…

Any competent theorist on this site is familiar with the concept of Hollow Earth in the zombies story. Brooks Agnew, however, sees this not as just myth but fact. Anything I can possibly say is already said in the (rather lengthy) video, but what is said is fascinating. I hope you all enjoy!

The Pack-a-Punch machine, an essence in almost every zombies map ever since it's first appearance in the Der Riese Waffenfabrik, released in 2008. Stick your weapons in the device and it will almost magically be upgraded to bring even more undead maggot scum to peace. Yet it is not merely a game element. Though the presence of the Pack-a-Punch has become normal to us, few people ever question where the hell that machine comes from. And maybe that's the correct answer.....Hell. So far we came across three different types of Pack-a-Punches: The classic machine design, the Skull Stone in Origins and Der Eisendrache and the Apothican Rift Stone in Shadows o…

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…

Massive credit to @EricMaynardand his source for locating this work which would have been earth-shattering back in the day. To recap, a friend of Eric located old art assets intended for BO1 Kino back in 2010 through one of the game's art director's portfolios. It's possible this was under some kind of NDA, considering it has not surfaced until now. It is a reasonable assumption that these images were going to appear on the projector rather than the images we see now (the scientist in the lab, the eyeball, and the zombies coming over the hill.) So let's go over what we're seeing and what these images could have meant. These first two images seem to…

With the end of Black Ops I, and the release of Black Ops II, it did not only seemed that Doctor Richthofen was a betrayal of his "friends", but also an ultimate evil. Corrupted by the Dark Apothican Power that lays within the MPD, he seemed to be a sadistic mind that wants only more power, and actually tries to gain that by enlisting a group of survivors who have to "mend the Rift". Spoiler Reasons why Richthofen is evil: > When Earth is blown up, only to decrease Richthofen's Aetherial power, the Doctor's first reaction is: >He constantly mocks and humiliates the survivors who help him. >He t…

On the stage there is a tall, electric device with 5 vertical columns that seems inaccessible. If you look closely at the wheels on the columns, they have numbers. To the right of the columns, behind/under debris, there is a hand crank. Seems to me the crank is to be used to align the numbers on the wheels into a specific combination to unlock something. Any ideas on how to clear the debris to access the hand crank?

Hi, I'm Eric. This is my first post on the forums, so forgive me if this has already been brought up somewhere. Link me your thread and I'll credit you. Anyway, while I like to believe the "Vril people are using Richtofen as a puppet" or "Infinite Time Loop" theories, I decided to sit down and come up with another proper storyline explanation of my own that doesn't involve those. Basically, Richtofen has had a hand in the creation of the Flesh cult. They state that they have "ascended to a higher plane of enlightenment and are not in danger from the zombies." What I think this means is that once someone joins the Flesh and eats a zombie, Richtofen, being in control, pre…

Guten morgen everyone! It’s that time again, the Order of Forgotten Mysteries (and yes, that includes you ;p ) will discuss something new again. Is timetravel or mail deliverer your thing, or both perhaps? Then you are at the right spot. This time we will talk about a variety of letters spread across times they should not be. Let’s start at the most notorious one, the one that can be found on multiple locations in the maps Kino der Toten and Five: Date: 23rd of January, 1975 From: IHCOMFSOG To: FS ER INDUSTRY GLOBAL COMMUNICATION SERVICE We have listed both Tabun and Sarin. Be wary of the Doctor. His involved should be min…
