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.

Dr. Maxis Has Fooled Us All At first I viewed Rictofen as the evil mastermind until this little theory hit me. I believe it was Maxis who drew Rictofen in for the kill. Granted: Rictofen is where he wants to be, but only to an extent now. I am sure Rictofen wanted to rule the zombies from his own body while remaining alive and intact. He could conquer all lands, (assuming they aren't the only ones around: JFK, Michael Rooker, etc.) if he were in his body with the same powers he has now. I believe I remember him saying he would kill her if he could, so this is another motive that was thwarted in some way. If Rictofen wanted to get the power from Samantha and want…

Is it coincidence that Mob of the Dead, introducing us to the concept of an eternal cycle, was released between the Victis maps? Let's start with the hypothesis: No, it is not. Mob showed us very clearly and directly what was going on in Tranzit, Die Rise and Buried: The characters stuck in an endless loop. A bit more far away, but even Tranzit itself can be seen as a metaphor for this idea, as the map itself is one big cycle with the characters trapped in it. T.E.D.D. told us all along: "Error. Error. Bus transponder not operational. Default into program route cycle" - TEDD The first argument for this theory was brought up by @RadZakpak in his thr…

Intro Hello again, today I’m bringing a little brain food for you all to chew on. 🧠 @anonymous mentioned in a recent discussion the various different depictions of a “soul” we see through the Aether story. Which prompted some digging. After some research, I realised that every different depiction of the mind/body/soul we see through the story relates to a section of the soul as viewed by the ancient Egyptians. (that’s right, these guys who made a very brief cameo in the Buried intro cutscene) Disclaimer: All these aspects were considered “different” parts of the soul from the perspective of the Ancient Egyptians. However they ha…

A collection of the evidence suggesting a cyclic time loop Time loops have been seen many times in Zombies. Examples include the Shangri-La Easter Egg, Die Rise (and most likely most of the Tranzit trilogy), and Mob of the Dead. There is one thing that every time loop in Zombies history has in common. "Accept your fate, begin anew!" This quote is more significant than most people realize. When characters are stuck in a time loop, they cannot repeat the cycle until all of them die. Meaning if they screw up and can't complete their mission, they all might as well kill themselves and start over. Now for the evidence for a loop starting with Origins an…

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

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.

I had came up with an idea (i used some info from OstonedshooterO topic in the Codz forum) and pulled it all together in a video i made. I have uploaded the idea video on my YouTube channel, here is the link to the video - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iV5oCD-VyvA The video contains an interesting theory that i made (with the help of this topic - viewtopic.php?f=100&t=21841). Aliens, a Nuclear World and a storyline on which Treyarch could continue on with. So what do you think. Thanks.

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…

Hey, I'm totally into the Zombie storyline and as soon as Vril was involved I started to think if they take the idea from a novel, there might be some clues or hidden secrets that help us evolve the story and understand it better. So I decided to read Edward Bulwer-Litton's book Vril: The power of the coming race, and WOW that book is just amazing. One thing I discovered was how Richtofen could decipher the hieroglyphic-like language near the M.P.D, actually in the book, the Vril-Ya would touch the explorer's forehead and send him to a transe-like state, explaining his language, human life etc... And in the same time learning the Vril-Ya's culture, so if Richtofen came …

Eheh, that rimes. Sort of. Anyway, it is Wednesday again and time for the fourth Order of the Forgotten Mysteries post! This time we will head to a more recent, but equally intriguing oddity: Belinski square: A very prominent plaza in the centre of Stalingrad, in Gorod Krovi. It is the square with the infamous Barmaley Fountain: A statue depicting a circle of six children dancing around a crocodile. Originally meant as an artistic decoration of the city, it became a symbol associated with the blind and meaningless horror and destruction that had been terrorized Stalingrad for half a year: War. I have consulted a Russian online forum, asking how the…

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 …

The Order of Events, a.k.a. "The Brackets" There has been a lot of debate over what the exact order of events is in the Zombies omniverse. However, I think it is finally time that this be laid to rest. In Gorod Krovi and Revelations, we have gotten a barrage of information, primarily from Doctor Monty. First, I will lay out what appear to be the cannon order of events, then I will elaborate on each part. Outline: *Primis fights in a/the "Great Battle". *Group 935 accidentally starts fracturing/splitting the universe via using teleporters for time travel. *Events of Origins take place, allowing the Apothicons to start manipulating the universe, and forcing M…

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…

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…

The beginning The beginning, what is the meaning of that: The beginning of the multiverse? Of everything? Of this human era? The beginning of everything is impossible, because there were things before the Keepers: The Aether, the life force, the First One and probably also the Summoning Key. The Keepers, we know they have fought a war against their corrupted selves, later the Apothicans, to finally ascend and become the wards of the multiverse. But what happened before this very first war. Or isnt it even the first war? Lets look at the second sentence from that cipher: If the Keepers lived in the Aether before the Great War, …

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!!

(Moving my main comment from an unrelated thread here to begin a new discussion without taking away from the original post, I'll include @anonymous's response here as well to avoid redundancy on their end.) A topic that has surfaced more than once involves the red and blue lights throughout the skybox of Revelations. We assume the red and blue lights are Monty and Shadowman / Keeper and Apothicon in conflict, but what if it was the Aether and Dark Aether in freeform due to Revelations existing outside the bounds of time and space. Red symbolizes Dark Aether, and Blue symbolizes Aether (or vice versa, I'll explain points for each in time). The Corr…

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…
