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.

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 …

I know that it is a little out there, but I have a new idea... Maybe zombie chronicles is a start of something new. Like a new universe. We get the 1.0 characters back for a little bit, but of course not for long. Our new 2.0 characters are going to fail. We go through everything once more, but we fail in the end. It's a weird theory, but maybe it may work.

"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…

This is a total noob question. I have seen the rich storlyine information about Black Ops Zombies online and how many things people discover. But where does most of this info come from? Is it all from in-game radios and easter eggs? Are there cut-scenes that can be unlocked and if so, on what maps? I will google further once I know that. I play BO1 and BO2. My kick-ass girlfriend also loves shooting zombies with me. It's our new favourite pass-time. Please cast some light on these matters for me so I can understand where on earth the story-line comes from. I would love to see a linear game with goals based on black ops zombies. No Left 4 Dead does no qu…

Before we begin, a foreword: From the official Treyarch livestream for Apocalypse Z, we learn that after deciding to write 'Not Ready to Die', Brian Tuey, director of audio at Treyarch, gave M. Shadows and the other members of A7X the ENTIRE Storyline they had written at that point. It's important to stress how many ideas we are only seeing come to light now in Zombies were conceptualised back in Black Ops (such as The Cycle, 'The House', the Keepers and Apothicons [known by different names then], corruption via the Aether, etc.). We also learn that lots of the song is specifically from (Ultimis) Richtofen's perspective. This is the only time we have been concretely given…

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 …

Alright hit me! 8-) I want the best and worce ideas you can give me (hopefully most of them are "best")... I want to know: A: WHERE the new zombies map is... B: WHAT may happen, Easter egg wise... (go all out on this one 8-) ) C: WHO will be the playable characters (Z-crew, for Takeo, Tank, Nickolai, and Richtofen/Sam, Tranzits for Marelton, Misty, Samule, and Russman, just to shorten things... ) D: HOW they may have gotten there... No specific answer is needed... E: ANY UN-RECONIZED FEATURES YOU MAY WANT TO INCLUDE! GO NUTS! :idea: :!: *Note- For any unusually LONG descriptions, let's say 500 words or more is the absolute lim…

Arighty lads, I know people are talking about this, but wouldn't it be nice if we could have the old maps, ( Verruckt, Ascension, Call of the Dead, ect...) in black ops 2? A wile back Treyarch made downloadable cameos for the multilayer, right? Now with just a bit of tweaking why couldn't they do the same thing with the old maps, it wouldn't be a waist of time either. There are 14 different maps and if they were all on sale for like 3 U.S dollars, (240 Microsoft points) each that's 42 bucks for all of them or because they are are sold separate you can just buy the ones you want. I think that it would be a brilliant plan, let me know what you all think about it.

How many would love for 3arc to bring all old maps back. They could have them available for purchase at 5.00 each through dlc. They'd make a killing. I'd personally would buy a few. Just think, being able to download your old favs and play on ps4!!

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…

Or at least, isn't talked about as much as it should be (unless it is and I just missed it). The fact that all of the characters seem to be living in a perpetual time loop of some sort. It's made pretty clear in Mob Of The Dead that this is what is going on. But it's hinted at in Die Rise, too ... which I think is the most glaringly obvious clue which is not often discussed, despite the ramifications it seems to have on the whole story. I can't remember exactly how it goes, but basically in the intro you see the characters (all or just some? Can't remember) ripped apart by zombies. Then,the game starts and they are alive again. One of the characters speaks a line w…

Hey I just wanted to bring my new theory here to the forums just to get the zombies community thinking. In Die Rise, above the elevator in the spawn room, there is some sort of chinese brail. Decoded, the chinese brail means the following: "From the shadow of the moon." Now to my theory. As of right now, the original characters are on Moon.(so we think) "From the Shadow of the Moon" is actually a book based in the 1960's. That is around the time of our original characters. The book is about a couple of astronauts returning from the moon and telling their story. See the connection? I think the original characters (still on moon) will return in future DLC. Remember, Treyarc…

Alright, this is going to be a fairly quick post. I just had a realization that I wanted to share. So, I was going around the Subreddit, and I came across a theory that Monty was completely unaware of what happens in Mob of the Dead and Gorod Krovi. I personally found several substantial flaws in the theory, but the one thing that was a bit interesting was the flickering perk machines. The theory stated that the machines were flickering because it wasn't Monty that put them there. One important observation that I made is what happens when the perk machines are turned off. You still have the perk you drank, however you don't have the effect. I would like to add…

Due to the release of 'Die Rise' many things have been revealed, the most important thing in my opinion is the Navcard and the Reader, the Reader can be built in 'Die Rise' and a Navcard can be found on it too, the more interesting thing is that the Navcard from Greenrun can be inserted into this Navcard reader and it actually is accepted. But that's it, it doesn't do anything, it doesn't give the bus a second route, it doesn't require 250,000 points to be in the bank on Greenrun and it doesn't do any giant easter egg, but it will. My theory is that this giant Easter Egg will span over all 5 maps but will commence on the very last zombies DLC. The next DLC will …

I love spleens, you love spleens, we all love spleens! There is one spleen in particular, however, which will be important to today's discussion, and that is the spleen of Pablo Marinus: I decided to explore the spleen and its importance because it perplexed me why Richtofen would keep the spleen in stasis in Siberia, even leaving it there after he left to perform Operation Shield. It is in the very same type of vat as the Ultimis clones, so to Richtofen, this spleen must have some major importance. Let's run through what we know about the spleen to find out what that importance may be. A full eight months after being captured at De…

September 2th, 1944: "Pablo Marinus, a Mexican spy, is captured by Group 935 at Der Eisendrache." Did anyone ever also wonder why a spy from Mexico had infiltrated Group 935? Surely it could be one of the many random nationalities that worked at the international organization that Group 935 was, but that would be too lame for us story enthusiasts right? Pablo may have been working for Group 935 because he comes from the country of origin of the Aztec and Maya: Mesoamerican societies that hold a grand mystery because most of their culture was wiped out in the post-Columbian years, and we therefore know relatively little about them. This gap of historical record…

So this thought recently ocurred to me regarding the easter egg quest of Call of the Dead and the events following Moon. Now from context clues we've gathered Call of the Dead is in 2011, or at least sometime around then due to the use of real life actors. Basically a pretty modern time. Then from context clues we gather Green Run takes place sometime during or after the 1960s, as that is when Moon takes place. Now my confusion is, they go to 2011 to gather the golden rod and have to power the teleporter in the locked room, then they go to the 1960s-era Moon and send missiles down to Earth creating a complete hellhole called Green Run. …

I find it more than likely that one of the future pit stops for our new heroes is Paris. Think about it: Treyarch canceled Paris in order to go through with Moon, so part pf the map would already be complete. A big reason, Paris would be an ideal place for Richtofen and Maxis, not only because it would be fun, but because there could be another obelisk, the Eiffel Tower. Maxis claims that there are other spires that need to be online, and it would make sense if the Eiffel Tower was one of them. Now, a theory I've come up with (thanks to the TEDD the bus driver) would be a HAARP (high-frequency active aroural research program; weather machine) facility. The spire …

Okay, I haven't done much on this forum, I know, so my word may not count for much on this site. BUT. I believe that this may be a credible series of theories. I would like input, and discussion. My hope is that this thread (at least for the moment) becomes the place to discuss various theories about the storyline, where it is going, and WTF the deal probably was with the Origins ending cutscene. I have some theories of my own that I am posting here, that I will edit/add to periodically. Everyone is welcome to post their own theories about how things have or might fit together in the past three 'seasons' of zombies. Feel free to add to my theories, correct them, or …

As much as I love the idea of 8 player zombies, I really don't want the new characters to ruin zombies storyline. I've come to love the four characters we play as now! Adding more players would be great, but I just think Treyarch need to pay a super amount of attention to the zombies storyline (not that they didn't last time!). Also the idea of a separate story mode for zombies sounds very exiting! Let me know your thoughts? -AnIMaL

Hey all! First part of a duo-thread I intent to make with our friend @Rapt. Today I'm gonna deal with the House and talk about the Giant radios as well. But first start with what a pocket dimension is, and a perfect model for "pockets". Alcatraz is the most clear example of a pocket dimension, and understanding Alcatraz may prove to be a key concept in order to understand other pocket dimensions. Created by the Warden of Alcatraz, the dimension appears to be anchored to the Warden's corpse, and his soul contained within; with the souls of the four mobsters holding the dimension together. This is a similar mechanism to that of the Elemental Shard, and the souls…
