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 do I mean "real" maps? Whats wrong with the maps we have already?' Can I have, by a raising of hands, a count of how many people have played the one original "Call of Duty"? (And the United Offensive Expansion Pack) If there are any vets, do you remember Hurtgen? How about Rocket and, oh yes, Pavlov's House? Or even Foy, with its tank/jeep warfare? (Yes, young'uns, we used to have tanks and jeeps) Maps where snipers can run absolutely wild, and CQC and assault rifle peoples can still move from bunker to bunker and room to room. Maps where, yes, you do actually have more than a single field of view. Take, for example, Pavlov's "House" from the map Pavlov…

Hey there, I'm just wondering, since I'm an achievement hunter and I got my last freaking achievement now, I'm so freaking out about it.... And when I check my friend's achievements (Possible on PC), it's like, they don't even finish the campaign... OK on PC, you don't get even any kind of points or score, but I think it's just a challenge, as we do special zombie challenges. Weirdest thing, I always thought, you must get shot by a PAP'd Crossbow, and then kill 6 zombies with your gun.... And today, I check a video how it actually works and... bang. 61 of 61. So I was just wondering, what do you think of achievements and how many have you got?

First of all I just want to say two things... It's midnight, I'm tired and may not be thinking straight. Also, my name has my old twitter in it. I changed it to @OCDHeadache. So I was researching my favourite person in the Call of Duty universe. Viktor Reznov. I saw this image: And I started thinking about: This is originally from Nacht Der Untoten, this map was firstly in World At War. In WAW there is an MP map that is partly Nacht. This, to me, shows that MP and ZM are connected. So why wouldn't campaign also be connected? A few month ago I wrote about the blank picture in Kino Der Toten and how that person could be the shad…

Recently, I was looking through the intel from Black Ops 1 and GKNOVA6 for my writing. Specifically, I was looking for information regarding the development of Nova 6. The role of the Gorky-Korolev Medical Company confused me at first. Why would a Prague-based shell company with a Russian name be used by Nazi Germany to develop their secret weapon? Moreover, how would a private, collaborationist entity not immediately be liquidated by the Soviet Union, even being used as a cover to smuggle Nova 6 into the United States? Then I discovered this in @Tac's old GKNOVA6 intel thread. Apologies, for the enormous size. Look at the left clipping. This GK Corp seems to b…

While looking at this picture in carbon's thread: Forum user RK1 Apocalypse brought up the idea that this was a picture of the interior of an atom bomb. I took this idea and started researching on the internet. One picture I found intrigued me: 1. Stabilizing Tail Fins 2. Tail cone 3. Air inlet tubes 4. Air pressure detonator 5. Lead Shield container 6. Detonator arm 7. Detonating head 8. Conventional Explosive Charge (cordite) 9. Uranium-235 "Bullet" (ca. 24 kg, 16 cm long, 10 cm diameter) 10. gun cylinder (not drawn to proportion: it was 180 cm long, with an inner diameter of 10 cm) 11. Uranium-235 "Target" (ca. 36 kg) with receptacl…

Hey, guys. I know it's kind of a lot, but i have a suggestion that would be cool, for Nazi Zombies. It's a map pack called " Ground Zero ", and i figured it could be in a nuked Hiroshima setting. The zombies from Shi No Numa would (of course ) be standard. There will still be Hellhounds, but I think i came up with an excellent addition. Y'see, when you nuke a place, shadows can actually be burned into the walls. So, why not create zombies that have a " Nuclear touch ", and come out of sillouettes on the walls?. It would basically be the same as the Hellhounds in regards to power and spontenieity, but it would still add a twist that i think the zombie elites would apprecia…

So do you all remember the hit-list from the GKNOVA6 Live Drop. here is a picture of it Now, there is 2 people that i have a concern about. Good ol' Shoreyo, where the F*ck did he disappear to. i am sure that he hasnt posted anything in a while. i know that some mods and stuff will be saying to use the search button AND I DID, but about 12 days is still a while. maybe treyarch told him something the person with more concern is Shizzire he last posted on MAY 24th. that is ages ago. why hasent he posted up here at all. if he was going to just not look at the forums anymore wouldnt he say something like "great site but i am going to not look at it anymor…

So I was recently checking Mr. Olin's twitter, where he posted a link to a review of the Black Ops single player demo which he is showcasing over in Europe this week. Here it is: http://www.joystiq.com/2010/08/18/preview-call-of-duty-black-ops-single-player/ The man says "You'll see severed body parts and other grisly wounds. It's horrific, but the game rarely celebrates the violence." Now, of course he is referring to the single player campaign, but why would they put it in SP and not MP? That wouldn't make any sense if they did.

I have discovered two more things when looking at some of the old screenshots. First, is this screenshot: On top of the building it says Leuna. I will quote the wikipedia page of Leuna: Leuna is a town in the Saalekreis, Saxony-Anhalt, eastern Germany, south of Merseburg and Halle. It is known for the Leunawerke (English: Leuna works), at 13 km2 one of the biggest chemical industrial complexes in Germany where a very wide range of chemicals and plastics is produced. So you will be invading a town in eastern Germany, and possibly even invading a chemical factory. Edit - The name of this screenshot was "black ops hell from above" which is a ra…
