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.

I can see this fitting in pretty nicely, as it could help players show off their zombie killing skills in-game. For example they could have their record round on the particular zombie match etched into their gun, much like the tallies etched onto the gun on the preorder poster. (If this thread exists already I'll delete this.)

Well, earlier today i was playing on Natch-der-Untoten with 2 friends (split screen on my end and another friend) and when the person playing as Nicolai knifed a zombie Nicolai said one of richtofens quotes "blood, gore, guts, bones, sinew, liver etc." and it didn't happen just the once on that one game, we played that map several times (my friend only had that map for w@w) and alot of the time Nicolai said that quote. I can't have been mistaking it as for the first game richtofen was there and he said it, but for the rest richtofen wasn't there. Since the quotes are pre-recorded i don't know how that could have happened, has it happened to anyone else?

In this thread please post any suggestions you have for theater mode, or feedback on features we already have. The theater mode concept is an ever changing and improving feature, so I am curious what kind of things you would like to see in future versions. Personally I would like to see some kind of audio filter to choose which sounds are active during playback. Ready.... Go!

I know we had a huge discussion about this before the game came out, but no one really did anything, so I'm saying we all should use 'GKn6' as their clan tag, then we'll be able to greet eachother! remember the cap GK :mrgreen:

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

OK so the campaign made the nova gas a big deal what w/ the hazmat suits and all....but in MP all it is is tabun gas that only kills you in hardcore... so my ide for the DLC is is they give a new kill-streak that you call it in and your whole team puts on the gas mask and you call an airstrike a little wider than a napalm strike and if you walf into it the edges of screen turn black from the gas mask and the enemy dies instantly *EDIT:mikeh made it a point that it would suck if you didnt have the map pack and you kept getting killed by it so maybe map pack matches only like in WAW?

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.

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'…

The word is spreading around about Reznov(Russian leader in your group who was in World at war story mode) making a comeback returning to Call of Duty in Black Ops. I am not saying that it is positive that he will be returning, but lots of people are saying its confirmed. So that that is said and done, I would like to tell you what I think might just be the reason why he might be in Black Ops. So mostly everyone knows by now that the 35th American president during the Cold War was JFK(John F. Kennedy). On November 22nd, 1963, in Dallas Texas, Mr. Kennedy was assassinated(murdered) at about 12:30 pm by a sniper. I was just brainstorming and I came up with a pretty cool ide…

As the title states, anyone who wants to is welcome to post their first Black Ops Multiplayer match right here! My first Multiplayer match is always very exciting for me, so it is special. I always wonder several months after starting to play the game, "I wonder what I first started out like?" I'm not entirely sure if you will be able to upload them to Youtube as well as the CoDHQ and then embed them on this site like normal videos. If not then mods, feel free to delete this thread. Only 1 Day to go! (I will not be posting my first MP match the day it comes out as i play other things first)
