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.

Hi All, Sorry for the short notice, we are going to experience some downtime in aproximately 8 hours time. We have scheduled an upgrade to the MySQL server to bring us upto date with the current version. This is necessary as the current version is now EOL (End of Life) - when you visit the site, you will be presented with a MySQL driver error as the site cannot find the database, this is because we need to stop the SQL server to process the update. This is scheduled to take place at 8am GMT, 12am PST, 3am EST - apologies for the inconvience whilst we make sure we are current and upto date with all server related aspects. We shouldn't need any further planned d…

You may have noticed a little tidying up that we have performed. It's nothing "Massive" but it is a reorginasation of the forum categories. @Flammenwerfer put a suggestion forward and he put a reorginisation together on the testsite a few weeks back, we've agreed that it needed to be reorginised. I was browsing the site yesterday on mobile and I understood clearer, how much clutter the main forum index actually had. It was painful scrolling the main index on mobile. Even the condensed version @Flammenwerfer put together was still to much clutter in my view and the teams view and needed further condensing. This …

I get a lot of requests to join a group here on CoDz. Mainly from new members. The WWK, or What We Know Research Group (dark blue) would be the one you should be looking to join. In order to be accepted into that group you must research a topic and provide a detailed writeup, complete with images/videos/sources/etc... If you are curious about what one should look like you can go to the homepage, http://callofdutyzombies.com/home and look at the articles under the Der Riese tab. Now something that I am been trying to get members to do is to so what we did for Der Riese, for Shi No Numa. So if you want to be in the WWK, I would like to see you do a writeup on d…

We are aware of a couple of issues with the new update, we are working on this as quickly as possible. Some of these are issues which we can fix directly and you'll have noticed some of the style issue and width issues have been fixed. However, some are system issues which have tickets raised for. We hope to have these resolved as quickly as possible and we apologise for the inconvienence. If you notice anything, please report it to the bug tracker so we can have it investigated and fixed.

HL. Confirmed fake by the lead singer of two town himself(also the voice of HL) Skip to about 4:00 minutes in the video to hear him confess, the rest is about their new album, "Music to kill to" Which will take every beat Kevin Sherwood has created to date, and stolen combined with autotune(for the affects of Elena Sigeman) And very other plaugerized bands(Adema) For the crappiest music British entertainment can give you!(Didnt mean to make that offensive to the British)

If any of you are like me, you have just recently prestiged and were prepared to grind hard through the ranks this weekend. Well, the grind just got a bit easier. Treyarch tweeted out this morning that both Double XP and Double Weapon XP will run from Friday morning to Monday morning (10 AM PST as the start and end time). While I was hoping for a Double Cryptokey weekend in honor of the new Supply Drop taunts, gestures, and weapons, this will certainly suffice. With yesterday's credible leaks regarding Infinity Ward's next game and Treyarch live-streaming their DLC 2 premiere tomorrow, this is shaping up to be a fun week for Call of Duty fans.

We have been looking to add to our news system and make better use of it for sometime, we have lacked conviction in news articles for sometime and we need to better utilise the system. So as of now, we have added two members to a new group called "Media Staff" - it's not a staff position but it is a stepping stone so to speak to potentially becoming that at a later date. Anyway, big congratulations and thanks to @XPG Richtofen and @Tac - we are all looking forward to these articles. What will happen, is that when a new article is added, it will automatically post that article into the "Site News" section of the forum - we want to drive user engagement wi…

Apologies for the forum being offline earlier and no prior notification, however, we have now updated the forum to the latest version in the current version history. The brings a few security updates and minor bug fixes. You won't notice anything different, although we have put a new menu item Apps, where all the applications such as arcade and live streams can be found. We may add more to this and reduce the overall menu amount over time.

I was working on a thread with someone, and the idea came into my head, why can't we list more authors? I'm not sure if this is necessarily possible, or how it could be done, but if a maximum of 3 people are largely involved in a thread, they can be listed as authors in the forum it's posted in. Then when brains are given for the post, not just the person who physically made the thread will get brains, but everyone that was involved. Just an idea, discuss if you wish.

Alright so, I thought it would be so friggin' cool if Call Of Duty Zombies had its own amusement park. With Rated M Rides, so sorry children, you can't go on if you're scared of large amounts of blood. So, here's my amusement park! Name:CarbonLand! Rides!:The Waffle Womp!

When you see a member of staff or another member referring to the CoC, they are referring to the Code of Conduct for callofdutyzombies.com Since the upgrade this has not been present, however, we have now added the CoC back to the site and slightly updated the CoC as well (it may require a few tweaks).

Night Dive Studios has announced that remastered versions of Turok 1 & 2 are on the way to Xbox One. The news broke out on twitter last week which will see the 90's classics getting a Next Gen make over. There is no date confirmed for these games which at the minute seem to be a Xbox One only platform as PS4 versions are currently being looked into and evaluated. What do you think of this news?
