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.

In case you don't know, Gibs is when you shoot limbs off of zombies. Anyways I've come across what seems to be a solo only glitch and am wondering if anyone else has had the same problem. When playing solo on bo1 zombies, I find it impossible to shoot the limbs off. I've tried it on Moon, call of the dead, and I think Shangri-La and Kino as well. Has anyone else seen this? It's a glitch that Treyarch refuses to update right?

Let me start off that i ADORE!! Black Ops Multiplayer (Free with every CoD Black Ops Copy) There is nothing better than jumping in with my Enfield loaded and my Makarov pistol ready boot some NVA A*s! but what happens when a mate says " All Right want to play some Team Deathmatch?" We most certainly oblige and get ready, a little party on the go consisting 4-5 players ready to get stuck in and get that gun, or that pro perk...then it hits you The Party is no longer available... it makes me sad to see this as i watch those little circles going round and round, while your party is in a uproar about how "BullSheet!"

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 do some double backround checks on wht I fine so I did some snooping on cod forums , and came across this. JD: First and foremost, I can assure you there is nothing wrong or unusual with the hit detection in Black Ops. The reason it is being brought into question with greater frequency than in previous COD titles is because we have new features that encourage and enable further scrutiny than ever before (namely, Theater). I saw a YouTube video where a player loaded a Wager Match in Theater Mode slowed down time, and showed his bullet traveling straight through his opponent's chest in One in the Chamber. Yet his opponent did not die, and winds up getting t…

As you all know there is a man named john trent who sent many messages to key characters in black ops on the terminal.Because of what he says i belive him to reznov. my main evidence for this being: 1) in a message to jhudson (the last he sends there where a few more ill mention) he says "tell mason one more thing. this time its freedom for both of us" this highly implys that he is reznov as only reznov would know about the vorkuda escapes end when he tells mason it is not freedom for him just mason. this is probably the most important point. 2) secondly in a message to jfk the day before his assassination with the topic you have one day left trent says "to ac…

Sometimes when I try to join one of my friend's lobby the whole screen darkens or where my name goes it would say Add Another Controller for Split-Screen or something like that. It gets really annoying when I try to play zombies with my friends.

Discussing the 1200MSP price with OXM UK in a new interview about map pack Escalation, community boss Josh Olin was asked if he thought fans had mellowed over how much CoD DLC took out of their wallet. He replied: "It's a little of getting used to it, but I think people see there's a lot of value in the map pack. All four of our MP maps are brand new - they're not rehashes from single-player, they're not old maps that people have seen before. They also get new gameplay mechanics with ziplines and destructible bridges and auto turrets. "In fact, every new Zombie map we've ever made for DLC, it's more than just a few maps - new weapons, new enemies, new traps - an…

Now this isn't to the one who believe that black ops is ok. I think it is towards the people who bought Black ops and hated it, and the ones who just really hate it, or just battle field fanboys. http://www.gameinformer.com/b/news/arch ... -fans.aspx JD : "Personally, as a community manager who lives in the media or social media world every day, I think the social culture of video games is moving in a more negative direction as technology and social media continues to grow," he said. "Rather than growing with it, the trend seems to be devolving. More and more gamers seem to forget what this industry is all about. "It’s a creative industry – the most creat…

Find out what measures Treyarch is taking for Black Ops' multiplayer, the advantages of adopting a Hollywood approach for single-player, the game's new RC cars, zombies and much, much more.

I just discovered something interesting. There were 2 screenshots of the same guy, but I realized there was something different. I suppose this is an error at Treyarch, but tell me if you see what I see... I also wanted to bring up the fact that on the second picture, his tattoo says "115". I was thinking of posting this in the zombies section since it may be a picture of a Zombie map in the jungle (similar to Shi No Numa) but decided to post it here... Just lemme know if I should move it... On a side note, I tried to make the pictures come up, but all I got was a small white error box thingy. I did so any help is appreciated - Fixed …

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…

On a lot of forums for Black Ops, there are two topics that are repeatedly brought up: a reward for prestiging, and camo for secondaries/pistols. There may be a solution to both that is historically accurate to SOG: their silver pistol. A 9mm Browning hi power, chrome plated as a reward for completing an 'especially dramatic mission or high award. So perhaps this could be a reward for prestiging, similar to cod4's gold desert eagle. Ps. The source is John Plaster's picture book of sog. ( paid $50) Thoughts?

Here me out on this... My friend and I who play Xbox everyday together were talking decided that Modern Warfare 2 is extremely annoying because of the unbalanced killstreaks. We have both tried barebones, and although it is better, we still want SOME killstreaks. We thought it would be a great idea to have a certain game mode where the killstreaks were based on the killstreaks in COD 4 (a.k.a. arguably the best 1st person shooter to date). It was so simple with 3, 5 and 7 killstreaks and they were VERY balanced because everybody has the same killstreaks and they are by no stretch overpowering. What do you guys think? Vote in the poll and give your reasoning…

Wouldnt it be cool if you had your killstreak under your radar, for easier access? just imagine this, you are on a 23 killstreak (but you dont know this of course) with a nuke selected, you are getting really tense and you check the scoreboard to try and figure out what your streak is. Then a sniper kills you cause you arent moving. If you had died several times before you got your large killstreak going it may have taken a while to figure out your streak. it would be a nice feature in Black Ops IMO. Anyone else agree? It would probably look something like this
