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.

Treyarch's David Vonderhaar is confident that the weapons will be balanced in Black Ops, saying "This time we have better data," in response to a fan's question about the Spectre M4. For those that don't know, the Spectre M4 is a submachine gun with a low rate of fire, low recoil, and high power. It is similar to the MP40 and the UMP45, both of which were complained about for being "overpowered". Treyarch also will be updating weapons after the release of Call of Duty: Black Ops if they are not balanced.I am very happy about this Twitter question: http://twitter.com/#!/DavidVonderhaar/s ... 7643021406 David Vonderhaar's Twitter

Bad news for German PC players, it seems that European PC versions of Black Ops has been banned. Steam will only be authorizing localized version of Black Ops so it doesn't look like you'll be able to import a copy of Black Ops from other European countires either. Source One thing I really don't get is why it's only been reported that the PC version and not the console version has been banned. Surely they would both have the same content, unless the higher graphical settings of the PC was too much for the Censorsh... err.... Ratings board. The article also talks about a new trailer coming out on Sunday, but refer to this thread for discussion about it.

Metallica is going to headline the Black Ops launch event at the Santa Monica Airport’s Hangar 8. Here is the full G4TV article Activision is making damn sure there is nothing subtle about the impending launch of Treyarch’s eagerly awaited Call of Duty: Black Ops, and just in case you had any doubts, the publisher announced today that legendary rockers Metallica will be taking the stage for the Black Ops launch party on November 4. The event will be held at the Santa Monica Airport’s Hangar 8 in Los Angeles, California, and is expected to raise $1 million for the Call of Duty Endowment. Activision Blizzard founded the non-profit corporation to help veterans…

As we've seen with the last couple of call of duty titles a number of supermarkets in the UK are having a midnight opening and price war for the sale of blackops. For MW2 they had copies on sale for £27 instead of the full £55 which was RRP and ive had confirmation that a number are looking to do the same again but copies will be limited. If you're in the uk ANd haven't preordered and fancy a bargain I suggest you check if your local Asda or Sainsburys is planning to open and if they are then get there early as only a couple of hundred copies likely per store. Good luck and hope to see you online at 12.10!!!!

Wow guys, I can't believe none of us saw this. It's not really HUGELY MAJOR, but remember back to GKNOVA6 Transmissions, where we spent hours and hours decoding them? You remember the ones with the Freemasons? Think about that for a second. Freemason. Free-Mason. Mason's being interrogated ( as shown in the Launch Trailer, I think) and obviously someone's trying to free him I never noticed that, thought I'd point it out for anyone else

I have noticed that there are a LOT of random bugs in Black Ops multiplayer. For example, here are a few: 1. No killstreaks can be chosen in combat training/ multiplayer. 2. Joining random game modes when trying to join a game. (Ex: Choose TDM but go to FFA) 3. Being sent to a random persons private match when trying to join a game. 4. Being sent to a random persons theater mode when trying to join a game. 5. Joining a Wager Match and being sent back to the multilayer menu during the loading screen. (And you loose your wagered CP) 6. The most annoying one, having the host a private match changed to a random person. (This is really annoying es…

Ok, I am posting off my phpne so i cant copy paste links atm, but look up the Maverick Code for Black Ops, i will try to confirm it myself later but it heavily implies Reznov is alive. Also, in Revelations, when Hudson is telling Mason that Reznov died in Vorkuta, and it flashbacks to the escape, it looked as if nobody was driving the car when Mason got on the train, at the very least, I saw nobody in their getaway vehicle. If there was nobody there this could mean either Reznov was not in the car (not too plausible, but still a possibility seeing as how Mason was schizophrenic and the circumstances may have been different, or Reznov got off on his own and left. …

So recently I realized some links Russia has to Zombies, here are some. After WW2, Poland made links with Russia (I think), and Poland was near the location of Der Riese. Has anyone else realized Richtofens relationship with Nikolai? They both share this quote: "Blood, gore, sinnle, bones, organs, pulmanary systems!" also, on Kino, when u hold X/SQUARE at nikolais portrait as richtofen, he says "his eyes are following me!" The thundergun also has Russian writing on, and I think someone translated it to "warning" The Russians were an enemy to the US in the cold war, when BO is set. I myself am not sure about this theory, but here's what might have happened.…

Okay, so the rhyme implies a *ahem* naughty *ahem* topic, but i dont think it violates the CoC. If it does I apologise and mods have the right to remove it. Anyway, here goes. "Last night, I got your girl into Last Stand. I used Deep Impact to Double Tap her Bouncing Bettys. She sucked me like she had Iron Lungs, I am glad I had Juggernaut. We went all night using Extreme Conditioning. Her Sleight Of Hand got me to Sonic Boom all over her face. Luckily for her I used Steady Aim so none of it went on her hair. We went round for round because I was packing Bandolier. And you didn't hear us because we were both using Dead Silence." Errm yeh lol

Has any noticed the Easter egg Samantha in the dressing room next to the stage? She has written her full name on the wall, along with "JD" and a heart. It's located by the door next to the stage, on the top left corner of the first threshold before walking out of the dressing room into the stage area.

One of the most frequent requests from COD filmmakers has been to get more control in the editing of clips in Theater. The Dolly Cam feature lets you set up camera markers around the environment at different points in the timeline of the match. The camera automatically and seamlessly moves between each marker at a speed set by you to provide more fine-tuned control over camera movements and playback speed. Let's take a closer look at how to use this new feature with a brief walkthrough below. Using the Dolly Cam When you start a film in Theater, your default perspective is 1st person view. Using the indicated button, you can switch to 3rd person and Free Camera …

It seems most people didn't catch the small updates since the release on the TV's in Black Ops at the menu and the zombie menu. But today the main menu was updated GREATLY, one day after the update on GKNOVA6. Make sure to use your eyes and post what you find, screenshots are nice too I'll edit the findings into this post here. Feel free to theorize about what the clips are and what they mean.
