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.

Perhaps among the most famous things that bothered and interested the zombie community for a long time was the importance of the capital of France. We knew for a long time that Black Ops I’s final DLC was originally planned to include a map set in Paris, which was last minute changed to the fan-favourite Moon. But besides the fact that the Moon map files were still named ‘Paris’, we had no clue about how the hypothesized map would actually look like, concerning gameplay, layout and story. A couple of years ago Blundell ended the developers’ silence about this topic in a short interview with some youtuber. He described the spawn room instead of Area 51 to be beneath the Ei…

In the latest Podcast der Toten, Rad, Mattzs and Tac notice the odd yet striking similarity between the Excavation Drill in Origins and the one at Groom Lake. One could speculate that either one of the parties, Broken Arrow or Group 935, inspired the other. Logically, as Group 935 is an organization being active prior to Broken Arrow, you might argue that it was G935 that came up with the design originally, being backwards developed in the Cold War by the Broken Arrow program. However, I’m of the opinion that it was rather reversed. Enjoy this thread! I always found the name Origins a bit twisted. Chronologically it is the first map taking place, in 1918, and…

Just a small story connection here between the Illuminati and the Ancient Order of the Keepers. There are only two references to "Order" (Capital "O") in the timeline. In the beginning JANUARY 24TH, 1940 Richtofen renounces his involvement with the Illuminati. When asked how he could abandon his obligation to the Order he says, “Teddy was a liar.” Dimension 63 FEBRUARY 13TH, 1944 A fruit vendor tells the Reporter about the Ancient Order of the Keepers, and how they're the only ones “holding back the forces of the apocalypse.” He talks of people hearing "chanting... from beneath the city." -----------------…

Was doing a quick analysis of the BOTD intro. Noticed the following: This is the way up the book/ apothicon symbols should be. Notice the zombie symbol etc. Now look at the pages inside when cover is the correct way up.. Look at the paths on the right hand side of the book. They are clearly the paths from the left side of the timeline but flipped. Also notice the Lunar Lander and PaP on the left page ingame are from the right page on the timeline. This means the timeline we read needs to be rotated 180 degrees to align correctly with the symbols on the cover. Now, notice how Richtofen reads the book. S…

A particular interesting plot twist we encountered as the events of Black Ops 4 were unfolding, was that under Nikolai's 'leadership' of the crew, the Multiverse was actually be able to be saved. Only he had that what was needed to actually do what had to be done, despite the consequences for himself, while Richtofen couldn't. Instead, the Doctor had created a Cycle, one that would allow him and his comrades to stay alive. His actions were often deemed cowardish by the community, while Nikolai had a brave soul. But is this really how it went? And why, of all people, was Nikolai the one who was chosen to 'finish the game'. Rather interesting is the name of the …

This topic sort of came to me out of nowhere, and I wanted to share my thoughts because I don't think I've seen really any discussion on the topic. In Revelations, there are two stand out radios in which Dr. Monty simply recites lines from famous literature: From Shakespeare's The Tempest: From Dante's Inferno (The Divine Comedy): Because of the old fashioned language and seeming randomness of these references, I don't think they were given much thought before. But I got curious recently about the origins of these quotes and what they could mean from Monty's point of view. What do they say about his situation in…

Theres no denying it, zombies will return. The only question is 2012 or 2013?? What im curious about is will the gang return? I think they likely will but maybe in a smaller role now on to my reasons why. For starters all of the maps from verruckt onwards that have contained demps&co have had a teaser sample for the next elena song on the game over screen (cotd and five both have different songs and different heroes) moon has no such song. Now im not saying she wont be signing another contract to do some songs for blops2 but she was intentionly left off the moon maps game over screen. I think they will be in the effiel tower map and it could be the conclusion to blop…

Ok so lets start off at the easter egg: So Richtofen the evil mad scientist guy switches bodies with Samantha, making Richtofen the "Ruler or something.." of the zombies. So, now whenever you get a power up (Max ammo, Insta-Kill, Deathmachine etc.) you hear richtofen say it. Also the zombies eyes become blue. So Samantha wants revenge for switching bodies and killing/making him dissappear right after the 3 rockets go to earth. Then, Takeo the annoying guy gets his memory back and wants revenge and wants to destroy 115 or something. Now, if you teleport back to area 51, you can see that your off of earth so AREA 51 either got blown off ear…

I'm not exactly sure if this has been touched on before or not, but i have a theory on why Samuel is the only one who can hear Richtofen, and why in the radio messages, only certain people can hear him. I think it's because of the flesh. It's been hinted at multiple times that Samuel eats the meat from the zombies, and in one of the radio messages, the man says "I'll do it for you, and the flesh" To summarize, Those who consume the flesh may become mentally unstable, and only the crazy ones can hear Richtofen. That's the way i see it at least, it might not be the case, but it seems like a viable theory. Sorry if this seems a bit vague, but I'm just not used…

Hey guys, I've never used this forum before, but I just decided to refresh myself on the COD Zombies storyline and thought of a few possibilities for the story. First off, one of the most basic facts is that the Zombies attack the players. This is said for any and all game modes, and may seem silly to note. But let's remember that this is because Samantha has been controlling them to get to Richtofen for her father's revenge. As such, Sam could have caused some sort of radius to turn people to zombies around the area which the original characters are in. Theoretically, this could mean that certain areas of the world are not destroyed. As far as it's known (up to and …

i trust in you to trust in me to first know IM F***ING INSANE my idea is like this the moon event happens -soldiers are stuck there maxis and richtofen want 1 thing the group to do his bidding so the rift is a time rift maxis wants to fix it, richtofen wants to use it but maxis wants to repair it hince the 2 difference campaigns richtofen experimented on the group and still wants to see the effects,plus he always says "i miss that drunk" as we all know maxis didnt want teleportantion to happen, im guessing it really f***ed up now and maxis wants to fix dis but richtofen wanted to just work on teleportantion.

Time travel will tell. Was the name of the easteregg on Shangrila. Meaning that in zombies, Time travel is possible. This is also seen by the teleporters in black ops 1. Big Discussion: -NavCards The point of the navcards is to link all 5, to make a rocket / teleporter on the moon become active. This will make the story in the next Treyarch Call Of Duty gamw have the original charichters. Lets see what the navcards will do. Their will be a total of 5 maps. -TranZit -Die Rise -DLC 2 -DLC 3 -DLC 4 As we have seen the Tranzit NC activates the Die Rise table and tower. So, this means that the Die rise NC will active DLC 2 na…

I was watching a Zombies' story and then the YouTuber told two things who made me think: Richtofen killed all the Vril to make a god for the villagers and use the Shangri-La meteorite energy (115). We don't know who created the Pack-a-Punch. There are 3 theories: Group 935, Vril and dark magic. Then I made a theory about it: Richtofen don't killed all the Vril, he slaved some of them to use their technology and learn his language. With no way to escape, they revealed all their knowledge to Richtofen and help him to make his experiments when he told them. Evidence: -Pack-a-Punch cilinder (similar texture to Vril objects). -Ray Gun drawing (a 935 scie…

I like how u spelled out the format of the ongoing story and process , and if treyarc is listening to us right now everybody wants MORE video sequences!!!maybe if you complete the main Easter egg of a map would be innnsaine. As this storyline has progressed these short 30-60 second videos age given us so much information. I for one without these clips would be lost trying to picture the events in my head , they are great reference when getting lost in the Z . There are endless possibilities , BUT..... The events that have happened are concrete, set in stone (time mechanisms or not) make videos of the events taking place , leave there own separate Easter eggs we won't be…

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

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…

The multiverse is hard to explain. Some use bells or boxes each filled with a universe. But within the zombie story, we get stuff like Agartha and Aether. That makes the multiverse harder to understand. But here is a try: The Wheel Spoke Theory, NabrZhunter once told me about this. I am not sure if this is like Treyarch meant it, but its a concept. Perhaps its true and perhaps not. Enjoy reading! Dimensions The word “dimension” itself has actually two meanings: 1. The way like you use it in 2Dimensional and 3Dimensional. 2. A universe in a multiverse, like the Original (Nacht-Buried) dimension and the Origins dimension. With dimensions I mean the second me…

I am going to say this first. This is a theory... actually, at this point I'm reluctant to even call it a theory at this point. It has very little evidence to back it up, however, from what I have seen, virtually no evidence to disprove it. So, at the moment, I am just going to call this "speculation". This is based off of one of my theories/hopes for what happens in DLC 3 & 4, and will most likely be either proved or disproved in those maps. First, my over-generalized summary of eye colors and what they signify. Yellow: Apothicon control or influence Blue: Vril-ya control or influence Red: Ancient Evil contr…

On the stage there is a tall, electric device with 5 vertical columns that seems inaccessible. If you look closely at the wheels on the columns, they have numbers. To the right of the columns, behind/under debris, there is a hand crank. Seems to me the crank is to be used to align the numbers on the wheels into a specific combination to unlock something. Any ideas on how to clear the debris to access the hand crank?

Olla everybody! With having a new device to enter the Aetherial cloud of CoDZ, I'm able to post new topic on the forums again. This time I would like to talk about the canonity of points, money or whatever you like to call them. Points. Probably the most essential game element in zombies. You need them to survive. With points, you are able to clear debris, buy doors, weapons, Perk-a-Cola's and gobblegum and upgrade your weapons. Without points, you would be a dead man even before round 5. But is there a story behind this necessary game element? Our dear member MonopolyMac once posted an idea about it on this site, and it was that idea that made me create this …

The Pack-a-Punch machine, an essence in almost every zombies map ever since it's first appearance in the Der Riese Waffenfabrik, released in 2008. Stick your weapons in the device and it will almost magically be upgraded to bring even more undead maggot scum to peace. Yet it is not merely a game element. Though the presence of the Pack-a-Punch has become normal to us, few people ever question where the hell that machine comes from. And maybe that's the correct answer.....Hell. So far we came across three different types of Pack-a-Punches: The classic machine design, the Skull Stone in Origins and Der Eisendrache and the Apothican Rift Stone in Shadows o…

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…

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…

With his threatening appearance and questionable moveset, it makes for an interesting discussion. This video will discuss my theory, with the help of my friends, on who the Napalm Zombie is, and what his true origins are. First off, let's discuss what Shangri-La was supposed to be… What it was supposed to be: Looking in the gamefiles, we can see that Shangri-La was supposed to …
