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.

Hardcore Ricochet - This is literally the Very First thing I took Issue with in modern warfare 2, before the game was even released. And I've noticed that this is a topic not heavily discussed here. I know a few of you play Hardcore, and I play Hardcore Search and Destroy Exclusively. . . on World at War. For one reason above all else: Hardcore Ricochet. Hardcore Ricochet in modern warfare 2 completely ruins the very purpose of Call of Duty's Hardcore Mode. Which is to allow Friendly Fire. It is called Hardcore mode for a reason after all. Its not called hardcore mode because there isn't any HUD, or because you have less health and it doesn't regenerate. It…

I like how they have kept this a secret for so long. (Or have I missed something... :?) The only hints we have got to what the rewards may be, are from Vahn's random tweets which everyone thinks are directly related to Black Ops (we actually never really know ) Well, they did confirm the first 5 prestige levels will be CaC Custom Slot unlocks. (MP Reveal) There are many things that could be rewarded for prestiging. I think guns/weapons may be a little too far though (balance issues! )

If Treyarch does plan on making one more map pack before hanging up the DLC for Black Ops, I think it will be at least 4-5 zombie maps. Instead of MP. Why just zombie maps? Well for starters MW3 is approaching and once it comes out that will be the new addicting MP. The one thing that MW3 won't have is zombies. Zombies has kept me going back to WaW when MW2 was released but the maps got old. If they released one final map pack with all zombie maps it would keep black ops alive for a very very long time.. Secondly why would they end it like that? You get the focusing stone and we have to wait a year and a few months before we get back into the story? That's like putting a …

This is a post about just a few of the 'Unwritten Rules' of playing many of the CoD objective based team games (Domination, Sabotage etc.) MP 1. Don't go straight for the Objective, especially on Sabotage, as this makes the game last a really short amount of time, thus making it pontless even starting. Whats the point in planting a bomb with only 3 Kills? 2. Don't Camp (Obviously) especially on games with Respawn times, being killed by Campers, noob tubers and stuff like that just adds insult to injury. 3. Let One objective blow up in Demolition, that way you get 5 minutes extra play time. 4. Use Logic. This is a simple, but often ignored one. I'…

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

Sorry to bother you, but I have a few questions about the concerns I have heard over at the Callofduty fourms before I go buy it in about 3 and a half hours. 1. I have heard that there are many hacks already out. True or false? 2. I have also heard that the game is OP'd and only as good as Mw2. True or false? 3. There is also a CP glitch that gives you unlimited CP's. True or false? and 4. The audio is compleatly messed up, and if someone shoots from like five feet away it sounds like they are 50 feet away. True or false? Sorry for wasting your time, I just wanted to clear some thing up before I got the game and find out if i wasted my money or not.

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.
