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.

What's it for? Is it part of the side quest? I can't find any mention of it. Edit: also an extraneous one by the tram in Footlight. They both flank the area, outside the map, that the Tram passes through. It appears to be for getting beast on the Tram as it passes. Maybe there is an area that can only be accessed by beast up there? I'm on 360, so i don't really have a team to check this with and solo seems impossible to call the Tram and get to junction as beast in time. Can the top of the map be seen in theater? ---- Possibly related: at the game start, the loading screen starts looking at the Boxing Gym and …

This might be a really long stretch but based on this tweet from CharlieIntel: And the fact there's a new character called "Shadow Man", makes me think that maybe "Shadow Man" was with us long ago.... Back in "Five" and Kino Der Toten this portrait was never revealed. Many theorised it to be Dr Maxis. Others theorised it to be Richtofen's Mexican subject. But what if this was a sign Shadow Man was watching "all along", like he may be the Grim Reaper. It would make sense, considering he may be a supernatural force as he knows the "BO3 4"'s secrets and past. What do you think? Possible or just a really blown out theory? e…

I will not talk about the Shadow Man or the pretty giant monster. But about the 32th day of October. Spoiler It's really weird. Like why there are 2 boats under 2 boats ?

Summary: This thread was about the discovery that each Molly's Cream Cakes, and each Devil-O cart lights up as you get kills for the Trip Mine upgrade. If you are close to it, you won't see the effect as you are in it. A little further back and it looks like dull whitish light. From further back, it looks like an altered version of the mystery box light column. ------------------------------------------ Original thread>>>> I got a new effect that i have not seen before and it was quite large. I searched the web and found nothing. Short version: attempting Trip Mine Devil-O upgrade at Junction created this large yellow vortex…

Something brand new, don't believe it has been seen before. Looks like just a fun easter egg to me, not necessarily any more to it in my opinion. If nothing else, it is exciting to see things still being found. Full credit goes to Glitching Queen for this find. Couldn't get the embed to work, so here's a direct link.

So, there was a recent data dump that revealed that an upgraded form of the shield, called the "Goddard Apparatus"; and now someone has figured out how to actually upgrade it; confirming that this is legit. https://www.reddit.com/r/CODZombies/comments/3upzca/first_in_the_world_goddard_apparatus_shield/ It seems that what you have to do is use the Rocket Shield on zombies and get 10+ kills in twelve consecutive bursts, or a perfect game of bowling basically. You'll hear a bowling pin sound if it you get it right, and if you don't you have to start over again.

That is not dead which can eternal lie.And with strange aeons even death may die. Alrighty, So I'm hearing a lot of people call the new special zombies "Aliens," but I just don't think that's the case. Naturally, as this map is "connected to MotD" in some way, my initial thought turned to something more demonic. I think that most people saw a resemblance between these creatures and those of extinction, but I believe they were more so inspired by Lovecraftian horror. "Lovecraftian horror is a subgenre of horror fiction that emphasizes the cosmic horror of the unknown (and in some cases, unknowable) more than gore or other elements of shock, though these may still be p…

I know that is probably too early, everyone needs to get sick of the regular play first, but: Start room challenge: beast to survive when trapped? No beast challenge: no perks, no pap, just gum and guns. "I'm here to kick ass and chew bubblegum..." At least you're not out of bubblegum. Start 1,5,10,15? More, as they come to me.

Ok, I'll rant. I love Zombies. I am an older guy in his 30's with a kid. Hard to find 3 hours and a team that isn't retarded to do these EEs. This particular map pissing me off alot about taking a solo player all the way to the end and not letting them take part in the final step solo. Its just dumb. Its ok to have to upgrade your sword using all 4 players ritual spots when you are playing solo, but another step (the last one) can't be done on solo. This could have been as simple as letting a solo player have more time to shock everything etc... I am just tired of not having the same oppurtunity as a 4 player game does. You already have a team based environment, it calle…

Yo slaughterer of Zombies, I have got a theory about who is this corpse, near the Ruby Rabbit, and who killed him. I think you all know the corpse of this man who get killed near the Ruby Rabbit ( http://imgur.com/D4EaMCP ), with a letter wearing the inscription « M » (or « W »), but, I think nobody knows that the little table near the corpse, is the same that… The table of the photographer of Jessica. Also according to 83457, it's nothing because all the stuff of the cutscenes are in game. For me, this corpse is the editor of the Icarus cartoon of the Weasel. After completing the easter-egg, Weasel is allowed to left the Purgatory ("The cycle is bro…

Does anyone know the exact reason that Mule Kick sometimes takes your third gun slot, and sometimes takes another instead? I've heard that it always takes the last gun you get (bo2+3) but that isn't true, unless the Apothicon Servant breaks that rule. ---------- In BO1, you would always lose the third gunslot. In BO2, and BO3, the gun that disappears obviously isn't always the third gun slot. This has been tested and confirmed many times. But what is the deciding factor as to which gun slot disappears? I've clearly had it take 1st, 2nd, and 3rd, seemingly random. Thanks.

Hey guys I just found the new Jump-Scare easter egg on Shadows of Evil. If you go to the waterfront just outside The Anvil (The Boxing Gym) with a sniper and look at the cargo ship to the left, an image pops out at you of the Zombified Richtofen you see when teleporting on The Giant. If you're interested in seeing it I think I'm the only with a video so far so here's the link, but I have the image anyway: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E1M0cLdy_mo Spoiler http://i.imgur.com/VdCfpcQ.png To be honest I'm a little disappointed, considering that in the last jump-scare we saw Nero, and this one just seems like they …

I just hopped onto PSN and some interesting things changed (or at least I thought it did) Zombies are less aggressive. I made many escapes on red with a large crowd. The Wunderwaffe chains damage better. Also no splash. But it seems really that the zombies are not as powerful as before.

I am not sure how many people know of these things, but there are phones near each characters ritual site that state a bit of back story about them or about the map. There also seem to be phones that can only be accessed after a ritual, showing that resorting to murder was not what the characters had to do and they were actually going to be able to live a fine life. For example for Vincent, a phone can be found near the perk spawn of the Canal District that alludes to his partner possibly ratting him out. But then in the Ruby Rabbit, after doing the ritual, a phone will be found that is form the partner telling Vincent he was questioned about him but he would have never s…

I think you guys will be excited to see this... So what does everyone think?!?! Also, You can't see it, but someone else commented below and stated the shield could also be upgraded. I'm not too sure about that one. I'd imagine if this is possible, were going to have to get a ton of kills using the Rocket Boost feature. This would also explain why we see the fuel tanks in the Purple Pods so often.

I'm hoping someone can explain something to me about the PAP ritual. In this video, what is the Shadowman talking about when you finish it. Is it an integral part of the EE, does what he say have deeper meaning? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z9RNBot-v1o I'm working on something and noticed this for the first time today. Any help would be much appreciated.

Ok, so in the SOE trailer we see, as to be expected, a box location, but no box. However we ALSO briefly see a green-blue box light color similar to the normal box light. So, what kind of box are we talking about? The MOTD one had a fiery empty location and a red-orange box-light. Origins had a green-blue box light, just as richtofen and sam had, but had an empty location more similar to mob of the dead's. So now we get a normal empty box location, but a green-and-blue box light... What's going on? It's HEAVILY hinted that this is hell... So why is (I presume) samantha in charge? Does she have dominion over the damned now? (That is an excellent title, someone use that…

I made these video's for the Zombies Library & found the Telephone Calls really interesting with great back-story which I thought deserves it's own thread. Firstly, I think the guy talking in the 4 characters videos is named "Mr. Rapt" (possibly short for "Rapture"?) but this may be incorrect. He is really - Shadowman Overall, all of these Telephone calls are really interesting, as they show that each of the 4 playable characters were mislead into killing & sacrificing their colleagues, when really all of the stories were lies, set-up by "Mr Rapt." - Shadowman. Nero's wife didn't forge his signature &a…

I am looking for where we are discussing this new info , so a redirect would be nice. Otherwise, I'll start off... NoahJ recently had a friend (with video) of purple gatekeepers chasing him during the shadow man battle. There was also a difference in the "normal" color of the gatekeepers, To noahj , normally they are sleepy purple and red awake (i may have this backward or wrong) but in the friend video they were opposite , or at least they were red while asleep and purple ones would spawn and chase him and leave the purple mark on the floor like in the flag step. I have also heard rumors of a purple margwa heart (a second margwa heart) but i…

Summary of thread: Alternate Ammo types have changed since launch. Currently, by my reckoning: Blast Furnace: excellent for pooled up crowds. Still counts towards gun challenges (only one that does?). Works poorly on uneven ground. Procs every 15 seconds. Fireworks: works better than ever, takes out all in sight range. Works on uneven ground. Can be more reliable versus trains than BF. Pooled up zombies, camping, are both possible, but procs infrequently like BF. Turned: excellent for camping. Gets a good number of kills. Helps hold zombies at bay. Later, may have 2 Turned zombies at once. Dead Wire: actually useful now. Kills …

Nero Nero Nero... I want you all to remember that name, from what Ive seen this character has been shown the most and I know this a stretch but sits the highest on every poster and is a bit larger on each poster and it seems that he has the darkest backround compared to the other characters. Now we all know he is a magician and from all the references and people using the word cursed and mark of the beast and from trailers and pictures maybe Nero was also doing an abundance of dark Magic on the side. In every group of 4(except for the COTD cast) there is a character who stands out for some dark or a meaningful reason Richtofen from the O4, Stuhlinger from the N4 and The…
