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.

I just thought I'd bring this up early. In the storyline, many members of this site personally know that analyzers of the Zombies storyline is heavily influence by history. We have the Tunguska Event, the Vril novel, and Nazis in general as mere examples. However, this new game, Black Ops 2, is taking place in the 2020's, no? This will be the first confirmed time that the story takes place in the future. This can cause some problems. First, one source claims that the President is a woman. I'll assume it is correct. We must not be misguided by our history. There will now be a clear split in history. From thousands of years B.C.E. to 2011, we will use our history. Howe…

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!

Hi my name is Andrew Augustson and I am a huge zombie fan and i love the story. One thing that has been on my mind is the time setting of the story now. Iv been doing a lot of research recently and I would like some input. So to my understanding Der Riese is in 1945, then the original characters time travel to kino der toten in 1968. After this we have Five and Ascension happening at the same time but yet iv herd people say that they are around a year apart but i know they have to be on the same day, so my question is when is that day? Next they time travel to call of the dead which we know is in the present time and to my research was on March 17th 2012. After that…

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 …

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 …

In ascension, Richtofen speaks of voices that he hears and look at him now.. Is Stu going to be the next Richtofen at the end of this Saga? And are the "moans" (that we hear as Stu) coming from Sam calling out? I mean we hear on the opening screan on Die Rise of a Demonic Voice that nobody knows crap about. omg, Mind blown!

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…

This Theory i Know may be a tad odd for some (I understand iam kinda questioning myself on this one mainly due to me being very tired) This is one i thought of about an hour ago i decided to look into it. There are a couple things i thought of that could back this up, Mainly some come from the tapes on moon related to the pyramid, When he is talking to Samantha, The thing i found weird is Maxis's Reaction to the fact that his daughter is basically trapped in a Device that seems to be alien like, but he basically tells her to stay and Kill everyone, now i know maxis and ric both were working to on Vril related things but Ric was hiding the fact he had knowledge of the MPD…

Now before I get 20 post telling me to move this to the extinction section: THIS IS NOT ABOUT extinction, well… Yes it is, but It's more about zombies then Extinction: A while back I proposed that the Extenction universe is just another form of the Zombie's universe through these constants: -Wreaked earth, -Aliens screwing things up, -Huge infestation of sickening and morbid creatures some idiots decided to test on rather then lock them away where they can't harm anyone ever again. -Four specific descriptions of character sent to stop the outbreak: A white male with a beard, A white male with a mustache, An african american male, And a white female. …

This is a very complicated theory, so please listen closely. I will give a short synopsis on the zombie storyline, then add it onto my theory. The Zombies Universe. One of the most complicated ones in video game history. Now, I'm going to give a brief opening by telling about the end of the Zombies timeline. Origins is the very last thing to ever happen in the entire storyline. If following the easter egg correctly, you free Samantha from Agartha and give her the ULTIMATE POWER, causing her to re-write time, history, and space, recreating the world around her. She brings her father, her dog, and her world back. She even creates a friend to keep her company, Edward Ri…

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…

Sorry I'm new here and I am having a hard time finding the entire, true story behind the zombies story line. I watched a 4 hour video on YouTube about it and got rather confused. Was wondering if there is a thread with the accurate story to the zombies universe.

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!!

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…

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.

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…

As you may know maxis and richtofen are mortal enemy's in the 1.0 timeline because of what richtofen did to maxis and his daughter Samantha In derise but years later richtofen discovered that they were not dead and maxis was in a tomb and Samantha was in the dp9 he got a friend of his to free maxis to get Samantha out of the dp9 because it has the power to control the zombies but when maxis gets her to come out he says for her to kill every one in group 935 and she does what he says it is unclear how maxis dies after this point

So, after we knew that Agartha is Aether, the community has thrown away the idea that Agartha is Hollow Earth, a subterrainian world. I could talk hours about this subject, but there just came an idea in my mind that I wanted to share. Aether, and not speaking about the Dark Aether, is another dimension, right? Its a dimension discovered by Edward Richthofen, while doing experiments in the quantum physics. You might know that the light that we see is only a fraction of all the different waves around us. (FM, AM, TV, Alpha radiation, Bèta radiation, Gamma radiation, WiFi and X-ray to name a few others. There are moving waves all around us all the time, but only…

Hey all! Agartha has always had a major role in the story, while the name 'Agartha' was actually used in-game for the first time in Buried, when Zombies Mode was already raging on for 5 years. As we have always assumed Agartha was actually the world within Hollow Earth, like various mythologies (though under different names) state, Doctor Monty smashed this image. While I previously tried to invalidate this, it still leaves the Hollow Earth-issue. However, yesterday I had a thought that may have an explanation for that as well. Agartha could actually still be very much inside our planet. The quote that sparked this idea was, ironically enou…

I found a few connections between real life events & characters and elements in the aether story. I'm aware that some of them have been known but I think that a few significant ones are not known. People in the COD zombies forums know a lot when it comes to connections of the story to real life, so I hope the information in the post will be new. Due to limitations on my end, I'm going to make the post interactive. Instead of directly showing all the connections, I will only leave the sources, leaving you to search for the connections. Mob of the dead & Blood of the dead ciphers - a significant source, make sure you read the c…

I wonder if anyone every seriously thought about them: the CIA and CDC, characters in a couple of Black Ops II maps that I would like call my favourite ones. Despite I am certain of them being canon, we are still unfamiliar with their actual backstory. I guess it is time to theorieze, yes? So, the maps we encounter them in are the Green Run survival maps, both in Survival and in Grief mode, as well as in Nuketown Zombies and lastly, Buried's 'Borough'. Now what is their exact purpose in those locations? First of all we are sure that the events occur at least in 2027, as Richthofen is in control already (excluding Nuketown pre-round 25). Concerning their press…
