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.

Metallica is going to headline the Black Ops launch event at the Santa Monica Airport’s Hangar 8. Here is the full G4TV article Activision is making damn sure there is nothing subtle about the impending launch of Treyarch’s eagerly awaited Call of Duty: Black Ops, and just in case you had any doubts, the publisher announced today that legendary rockers Metallica will be taking the stage for the Black Ops launch party on November 4. The event will be held at the Santa Monica Airport’s Hangar 8 in Los Angeles, California, and is expected to raise $1 million for the Call of Duty Endowment. Activision Blizzard founded the non-profit corporation to help veterans…

It appears the secret is out....new leaks springing up which are major spoilers for both single player and zombie mode. I've noted articles on CVG, Prouct Review news, codblackopsblog and others with major spoilers and no *spoiler warning* titles... So if you want to keep up the suspense until release day (and it's well worth it), or until Treyarch reveal a zombie trailer....be careful!!! I imagine more and more leaks will appear in the coming days...and despite Activision removing videos, there are screenshots galore... I'm really rather annoyed PR News spoiled it for me I must resist the urge to click "black ops zombie" in google news....bummer.

In WaW the launch trailer song was Bong Squad by Blues Saraceno. My question to you guys is what should the song be in the Launch trailer for Black Ops? The WaW one was so awesome, and it got me pumped for the game. For Black Ops, I would choose World so Cold by three days grace. Great guitar riffs mixed with intense action sequences are a match made in heaven. :)

I have a friend who is a moderator over at 7 sins and he has informed me that there is a hacker preparing to launch a massive spoiler campaign, much like halololol. I cannot stress enough how little spoilers are tolerated on this forum, and the CODHQ. Im aware carbon has posted the announcement but for some reason nobody seems to adhere by it. So, PLEASE do no post any of the spoilers on the website, you way watch them in your own time but if you post them they will be deleted and you will most likely be banned. So dont waste you time and just wait for the game, were so close!

Bad news for German PC players, it seems that European PC versions of Black Ops has been banned. Steam will only be authorizing localized version of Black Ops so it doesn't look like you'll be able to import a copy of Black Ops from other European countires either. Source One thing I really don't get is why it's only been reported that the PC version and not the console version has been banned. Surely they would both have the same content, unless the higher graphical settings of the PC was too much for the Censorsh... err.... Ratings board. The article also talks about a new trailer coming out on Sunday, but refer to this thread for discussion about it.

some ideas that i liked to share about black ops zombies Called in by radio and takes up the special grenades slot. When you receive a walkie talkie in the random weapon box, you have the option of the three choices below. The chances of receiving a walkie talkie from the random weapon box is as rare as receiving a Colt 1911 from the box. •AH-64D Apache Attack Helicopter equipped with two Gatling Guns and Hellfire Missiles. •HH-47 Chinook Helicopter drops off three Special Ops Force soldiers on Solo, 2 on Co-op, and cannot be called in if you have four people. Soldiers last for 2 minutes, and spawn with random assault rifles. •B-52H “Stratofortress” B…

Does anybody recall a while back when Treyarch said they will not have the Tactical Nuke in Black Ops MP, or any game ending Killstreak reward, but the highest killstreak reward they have is a 15 killstreak? I know IW only showed up to the 11 Killstreak with the AC-130 (I don't recall them showing the Chopper Gunner) in their MP reveal, and the Tac Nuke was a little surprise for players when they actually released the game. Do you think Treyarch have a nice little surprise in store for us, and what do you think the 15 Killstreak reward might be?

Well hello ya'll, sorry to deliver bad news but we PS3 users are now getting screwed again. You remember, a long time ago, when Activision made a deal that all XBOX users get all COD: dlc earlier then PS3 users until 2012? Well yeah, remember how pissed off you were then? What I'm about to tell you has no spoilers, and is certainly not a game-breaker, but is certainly pisses me off. Earlier today on the COD HQ a new intel was posted, stating that for Split-Screen Online, you can sign in with two Xbox Live Gold-Accounts, or Two PSN-ID's. Unfortunately, that changed. Xbox users can still sign in with two Gold accounts, but PS3 users no longer can. On PS3, you c…

I mean we're down to the wire but we STILL have to wait two more weeks. When they announced Black Ops, I went back and played all the other CoD games I had. Well, almost...the farthest I got was W@W. For the 360, for the PS2, for the DS, and then I played Nazi Zombies with some friends of mine. Over the next little while, I'm gonna read my copy of the Ghost TPB, play Modern Warfare 2, and then play Mobilized. That's what I'm gonna do. So what do you plan to do in anticipation of Black Ops? Feel free to listen to this playlist of songs that relate in some way to the subject matter. Set 'em up and crack a cold one! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hfw…

Ok, so remember Game (UK) and Gamestop (US) have/had that deal where if you pre-order the hardened/prestige edition you get some extra things exclusively to these two stores? Well I received those things today. Below are some pictures of what I received. I also got a CD with some trailers and screens and what not on it. More information further down. The above 4 pictures are the "Lazer Cell" After going through the disk that was provided, I can confirm that the only content on there are the trailers which we have seen so far. (MP Teaser, Prestige,Uncut Reveal Trailer, Debut Teaser and the Wagermatch trailer Also included a…

Via ask jd (i pressume) some possibly unknown PS3 multiplayer info has been released .. Multiplayer Online Split-Screen Support Let’s get started with what I believe is the most unknown, yet confirmed, aspect to Call of Duty: Black Ops multiplayer – the online split-screen support we’ve re-introduced to the franchise! The Facts: You can connect a second controller and bring a guest online (i.e. “JD_2020” & “JD_2020(1)”). Guests can rank up, earn unlocks, etc – all guest progress goes away once signed out. You can bring a second, full PSN account online! Both players with full PSN ID’s can rank up while playing together in split-screen, as if …

Well, now we have both XP and CP. XP - level up all the way to prestige. CP - buy perks, weapons and everything else the way you see fit. If CP is used to unlock stuff - earn more to use better stuff (finish challenges, perform good), what the hell does XP? Advance you levels - great, but what for? If XP opens better ways to earn CP and new stuff to buy - it's just an overcomplication of the old system. Your ideas?
