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.

At the request of @RadZakpak after an interesting discussion on Mob of the Dead and Blood of the Dead, here is the script for my video on the way in which Mob of the Dead fits into the storyline. If the video is more to your liking, I will leave a link here (https://youtu.be/8Ikf97ADLsk) ZOMBIES DISSECTED #3 - How Mob of the Dead fits into the cycle The ZOD map of Black Ops 4’s Aether Storyline, Blood of the Dead, marks a crescendo in the story, however its exact position and the events leading up to it have confused some players - similarly, the role of the map’s predecessor, Mob of the Dead, is also one of uncertaint…

Ideals of the Loop

So I was thinking over how our storyline works with the loop where we go back to the start and suddenly someone I was subscribed to named Rad Austins 27 uploaded a video which was quite close to how I thought of the loop. He may have had a few facts wrong but in this post I want to expand and improve on his video. In our story the best place to start from really is Origins. In this map we can hear Samantha who shouldn't exist in this world, a world with giant robots and a large quantity of 115. This world still follows some traits akin to our world with The Great War and such but it is not our world and is not the world we have usually seen in our zombies story. What …

So yesterday @RadZakpak and me were in a discussion about the meaning of the classic comicbook pages we see as loading screens in Black Ops I and II. What always striked me, is that the style of drawing is different between Black Ops I + Nuketown Zombies if you compare it to those of the Black Ops II Victis maps. Artstyle 1 Spoiler Artstyle 2 Spoiler As you can see, the BO1+NKZ comic pages look more childish and colourful, while Die Rise and Buried's look more realistic. Now it was Rad's idea that the comic page…

So for my first post on Codz i want to talk about a cool theory i have about DLC 3 and how Dr Monty will be a part of it and his connection to this aspects version of Nikolai. As we know our test subjects never made it to the moon, therefore they were in other places as we have seen so far with Dempsey and Takeo however we have no idea where and how Nikolai is being kept or if he is being kept at all. Meanwhile personally i believe he is being held captive in Stalingrad by Dr Monty. What makes me think this? First of all we know Dr Monty has ties with group 935 aswell as Maxis and Richtofen as his blueprints are scattered on 'The Giant' the blueprints show the …

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.

Where we left off, Richtofen has switched body's with Samantha, making him the wielder of the zombies and ultimate power, also unraveling Richtofen's master plan. Maxis made you blow up the earth so that Richtofen couldn't cause any "Further Damage". This leaves Takeo, Tank, Nikolai, and Samantha (In Richtofen's body) to remove Richtofen from power and get Sam back in her own body. Now then, originally, Sam was trying to kill all four of them, so the trick is, will Samantha see in a twist to the story that the other 3 were never bad guys, nor a threat, or will she still try to be killing them? And what maps will we be seeing? Mars? That mysterious planet in the asteroid …

Recently we have the zombies time line and we can see that the story repeat always,but if maxis change the history, how: If he didn't make the group 935 all the story change and Japan's people are the ones that study the 115, so the next story can be in japan: new weapons and we can see new special weapons, a new story, a new beginning, new characters, and a possibility that in one map finishing the Easter egg a nuke repeat the 2 Great War history only imagine that we can have a new call of duty world at war 2, but in this case the story is in Japan.

Welcome Call of Duty: Black Ops 2: Zombies enthusiasts, Recently, Me, Spence_ZILLA, and two of my friends, who wish to remain unnamed, while waiting for a fourth friend to do the newest easter egg, thought about the future map packs. We have found, through research, that the distance between The Great Leap Foward to Resolution 1295 and the distance between Green Run to Resolution 1295 are eerily similar and create create a triangle. When the triangle is reflected onto the northern hemisphere, to crete a diamond, the point ends up near the North pole, this leads us to believe this will be part of the final map pack. We then found the exact center of of said dia…

Today I thought I would make a thread with less focus on lore, and more on a specific theme that I believe permeated the Aether story between Black Ops 3 and 4, that being the theme of Free will. Free will is defined as "the power of acting without the constraint of necessity or fate; the ability to act at one's own discretion." It allows us to make choices, good and bad, that can affect ourselves and those around us. All of human history is made up of choices based on free will. Interestingly, Dr. Monty goes out of his way in Revelations to tell us that it was, in fact, HIS idea to give us free will: If Monty desired to, he c…

Twelve years ago we unwittingly discovered a hidden mode within Call of Duty: World at War; A mode where four marines survive against endless hordes of undead in an abandoned German bunker. That's all that the mode was for a time, but it didn't take long for the mode and its story to develop, culminating in the end of the previous multiverse, and the creation of a new one. It seems poetic, then, that the first location visited in this new universe is Nacht der Untoten. But why is this location so significant within the universe itself? Especially now that 115 and thus Group 935 are out of the picture? Last year, I made a thread documenting the bunker's many ap…

As I have seen through many forums, videos on youtube and discussions with friends, there are alot of people debating whether the original 4 are dead or alive, I too am a part of this debate, and I believe they are alive, but anyway, this isn't the point. The point of this post is to list the many ways we could encounter the original 4. A New DLC One way we could encounter the original 4, (I'm not sure if I should call them that, since instead of Richtofen we have Samantha.) is through a call of the dead like DLC, with this continuing after moon, either straight after the Moon easter egg where they leave Area 51 and continue their journey, or years later, where the…

So I'm confused about whether or not the Edward we played as in world at war and black ops is an older version of the 2.0 version.Is the 2.0 going back in time to change the result of what took place in buried? what I gathered but don't know if it'a right is that 2.0 went back in time to when he first met the crew to prevent himself from taking the actions of what led to moon so none of these things happen but when he helped the maxis drone get to Sam he caused the multiverse to happen basically what Monty tells us in gorod krovi. can someone tell me if that's right?

Extraterrestials were the inspiration for the god-like figures appearing in countless religions and mythologies. What we’d call paranormal or magic is “merely” based on their highly advanced technology. The Chariots of the Gods are actually flying saucers based on an anti-gravity mechanism, the Gods sudden appearance on certain locations can be explained by teleportation and matter transference. Raining Hell and the Apocalypse might be referring to a thermonuclear war and weapons and staves with seemingly magic abilities are actually based on electromagnetism. In this summary of Demons/Vril/Keeper/Apothican technology that mankind simply cannot understand yet we also enco…

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…

Welcome to Whose Drill Is It Anyway?, the thread where the questions are made up and the answers don't matter. If you're privy to the concept of drills in Zombies, the first thing you may think of is the drill present in the Nuketown loading screen: This was later expanded (literally) by the alternate loading screen from the comics, which just shows a wider view of each of the above panels, and reveals Schuster is someone present during this drilling: In addition to Nuketown, and I did not realize this until yesterday, a drill very similar in design appears in a drawing on Origins: The very unique shape of both implies to me th…

So in Gorod Krovi we got this quote from Dr. Monty: "Now, if it had been entirely up to me, you numbskulls would be the last people I would entrust with this. But, due to factors outside my control... you're all I've got." I don't know if we have an answer to this sentence yet. So there could be two possible solutions: The first would be that Ultimis Richtofen took the essence of his soul and the rest of Ultimis to forge the elemental fragment, "bound their souls to Aether." This would involve Primis as well. With this, Dr. Monty and his intervention in Origins would have Primis in a perfect state to put them in a cycle (with the help of…

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…

Rev Cipher #4 October NSA report T they found the source on Venus beginning extraction As it's an intellegence report from the NSA. So first thing is to check US codewords. https://www.ibiblio.org/hyperwar/USN/ref/USN-NAVEXOS_P-474.html As you can see, the only single US codeword reference to VENUS is to an island off Papua New Guinea. This also works with the syntax of the sentence. "on Venus" meaning "on the island codename Venus" not "on the planet named Venus". Even "on Mount Lotomgan" works gramatically if we got picky about the codeword meaning the mountain specifically. Also when it comes to the capabilities of the NSA (…

Monty theory

I have a theory that I'm not sure who will agree with me on. So after Gorod Krovi with the Dr Monty quotes we heard him talk specifically to each character, and personally I don't trust him. What we know is that he has the ability to talk with all the characters but we also know that on the Giant, Takeo has a quote something talk about how a shadow man has been talking to him. At the time I figured it would've been the Shadowman since we captured him in the summoning key on SoE. Now I am beginning to think t might have been Monty because we know he has been communicating and watching us so he might be causing the 115 fog that had been affecting our characters since the gi…
