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.

When I make a custom class its name is always the name of the primary weapon used in that class but when I made a custom class for the Famas today and named it Famas it said 'Text prohibited due to profanity.' How is the word Famas offensive?

We’ve all been there, modded lobbies, glitchers, laughably intolerant xenophobes (god BLESS ‘MERICA!) and, garden variety general douchery ….. but a few weeks ago I encountered something so sublimely infuriating that I not only red flagged this user via XBL, but also formally addressed emails to both Microsoft and Activision…. Its possible to create almost anything with the black ops gamertag generator right? You’re given like 11 or something layers upon which you can stack a huge variety of geometry and stock clip-art images. The dude in question here managed to pull off something quite spectacular… true to his clan name (pun intended, it was [KKK] ) he had cre…

Hi, I'm Jay, once a regular on the forum. Hopefully everyone's holiday season is the one to remember. Back to the topic, mustang and sally vs the field. Many of you already know that M & S is one of the best weapons in all of zombies, normally ranked behind the Thunder Gun and the Wave Gun, perhaps as effective as the scavenger and/or the shrink ray. I'm making a case many of you already know, but here are evident findings in my recent research that you might find interesting. On round 15, two shots of Mustang and Sally CAN clear a whole hoard of zombies, given your shot placements are good. Same hoard will demand 12-20 ray gun shots to clear. That same…

I need some help! I don't know what is happening! I was playing zombies online on Black Ops 2 on the map 'town', and every time I went to the mystery box there was a bluish magical flash and it slammed shut, either that or it opened but the first gun in the cycle just sat at the bottom of it and I couldn't get it. The first time it happened i assumed it was just an internet glitch at the wrong time, however it happened every time I went to the box. Eventually, after the box had been moved by someone getting the teddy bear, I went to it and there was a blue 'puff' or flash by the box and it slammed shut with a sort of 'boulder falling and covering the entrance to the cave'…

I just have a question about how the final point counts are determined. Do they count what you had when you died? Do they count what you accumulated over the whole game? Does buying something in the game result in your final point count being lower? It would be great if i could get an answer on this, i couldnt find the information anywhere else.

Well, after a while, I just went to the IP address that was given on the poster, and then when I went to it, it said 'Call of Duty : Black Ops' (on the blue bar at the very top for Internet Explorer. For Google Chrome, the tab) So I now know that this will be the main page for Black Ops. It's still under construction, but in the near future it will be finished. Just thought I would share this. I'm new to this site, soo yeah :D

ok from what of all interviews i've been hearing and watching you'll be getting the chance to issue orders in the game so what if you can use a mic to issue the orders.. but there will be keywords that would recognize to where u command them to go. OR if you don't have a mic u can manually do it through the keyboard. Opinions?

Thought this was worthy of a topic. So if these documents are legitimate and not fake, then there is a lot of stuff that has interesting signifigance to the back story of Black Ops. First of all there are a lot of documents pertaining to IG Farben. IG Farben was a German chemical company that was founded in 1925. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IG_Farben# ... _IG_Farben It supplied for Germany during WWI AND WWII. They had close ties with high ranking Nazi officials too. In the US there was a similar company called Winthrop Chemical Company. http://www.flickr.com/photos/paul1995/4 ... 610495490/ Winthrop was merged with IG and was their American sister. This…

Welltoday i was reserching the Perk-a-cola machines, but then i can up aponew this: well its called the Amm-o-matic and has been cut from both SNN And DR. well i was woundering if yous guys could though of another perk that can be used, instead of this. Id though of a Stopping Power/fireworks perk-a-cola, which would increase your bullet damage to about 1.5, without multiplyiers and would also give a one hit kit with mines or grenades,which could help with a massive horde comming, throwing a few grenades and Boom, most, if not all are dead. what do yous think. sorry if there are other post like this, but this post isnt about the Amm-o-mati…

I think this would be a good gamtype to add to Black Ops. Ok, so one team should start on one side of a map and another team should have to start on the other. The attacking team has to more stealthily through the map to get to a certain side on the map, which is show on the players mini map. The defense team has to defend them from progrssing through the map but they do not see where the location is. I think it should be a certain building in the map. Tell me what you guys think.

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
