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 decided that by making this list of tips and a starter guide, hopefully some decent players will emerge. >>>Heads up, this is quite lengthy but could really help you, even if you think you're god's gift to Zombies<<< So a quick introduction... Zombies is EASILY the best thing about COD. But it's not without its share of noobs and I'm forever stuck in games carrying people, not the worst thing but it gets frustrating when you're looking to hit the high rounds.. because let's face it rounds 1-10 are slow as Fuck (BUT THESE EARLY ROUNDS ARE CRUCIAL IN SETTING YOURSELF UP) and it doesn't get truly challenging till 20/25+ so to keep ha…

For those who wish to see the video version of this post: https://bit.ly/2NAgtdC However, if you wish to instead read my thread or have a transcipt, keep reading: Mob of the Dead, and its reimagining, Blood of the Dead are maps based on the Alcatraz State Penitentiary. In these maps lie a villainous character known as Brutus, or Warden, or Cellbreaker. In the original version, Brutus has little to no kind of backstory, yet with Blood of the Dead, we finally get some insight on who he exactly is. But with Mob/Blood of the Dead being such an interesting map, with an interesting story and such; it made me wonder how the wardens who held th…

Is Group 935 a German organization? We know Group 935 is an international organization, created to "improve human condition". It has members from all over the world. But the roots of 935 lay in the German Empire, in 1918 or possibly earlier. We know this because in Origins, Group 935 mines element 115 in the trenches in German occupied land. Though 935's (short) history, the leader (dr. Maxis) and the most important members have all been German. Even the symbol of Group 935 looks a lot like the symbol of Group 601, a German organization that focused on atmospheric research and possibly mind control. Nearly every important 935 station resides in German or German-occupied…

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 is what I'm thinking Richtofen and maxis screwed up by destroying earth, right? So Samantha goes back in time from buried to origins to try to stop them but ends up creating a cycle. So this means that in theory: Origins and buried are the same place . the only reason that they are located differently is because the rockets shifted the tectonic plates moving Europe downwards. I'd like to note also that this,would result in climate change as well And there you have

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. …

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 …

Hello, and welcome back to the Order of Forgotten Mysteries. Our pal @anonymous is on vacation, so today I will be your guide through the next forgotten mystery! While Alpha Omega is blowing all of our minds with so many new revelations about old parts of the story... there are some loose threads still unaccounted for as the Aether Story meets its conclusion. One such thread we will be discussing today Icarus, Albert Arlington's plane from Mob of the Dead. More specifically, we are going to be discussing its mysterious appearances throughout Black Ops 3. The Appearances Mob of the Dead Icarus was makeshift plane devised by none oth…

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, Recently I stumbled upon some very interesting quotes that can be heard during the Buried Easter Egg. They do not merely inform us about what we exactly do, but gives us small pieces of information about larger topics as well: The Aetherial energy, one of the most important yet not so prominent topics in our story. Oh, and not to forget this. It is basically a must-read if you want to understand the following, but I guess those interested in topics like this know it already. So get yourself something to drink, and lets get started: The Lantern These quotes can be heard during the Lantern step. On Richthofen’s side, one mu…

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…

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…
