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.

This is my step by step tutorial on how to get the thunder gun in campaign. So let’s begin First of all you have to unlock the mission “numbers”. When you start the game you will need to through all your grenades into the nova 6 gas to blow up all the nova 6 gas canisters. Once you have done that you will want to go behind the desk and take the cassette that is in the cassette player. Once you have gotten the cassette you need to proceed to the part where weaver moves the fridge for you. You will notice all the guns on the wall. Normally you would turn to get them but this time you will turn left and put the cassette in the cassette player and just stare at the w…

Okay so i've been thinking for a while now about setting up a clan. It will have nothing specifically to do with zombies, hence the 'General Discussion'. But it will try to be amateur competitive. First name ideas; - Shell Shocked Gaming - Black Cell Gaming The 'application' process... so to speak, will be to private message me saying that you're interested, and I will get back to you. Please include your XBOX GT. in this. And that's XBox only, sorry PlayStation :L Honestly, I will only accept/plead for people within GMT, or very close, of English speaking language, and hopefully around 13 - 19 years of age, I hate playing with squeaky people I…

Once again, a lot of mystery surrounding the next zombie map. I haven't played through Ascension yet so I'm unsure what direction they'll take it in. Let the speculation commence :ugeek: ! Source

This is strange it's the first time that's happened to me... I just barely prestiged and went up 2 levels. On the second match on Cracked, the SMG class had flashbangs instead of smoke grenade, marathon instead of tactical mask, and steady aim instead of hardened. It just happened that one match which is weird.. Is it a glitch or a screwup on the servers or what?

This post is, I'm afraid, a bit of a rant. I want to talk about the Black ops Multiplayer and how I think its way too over complicated now. I mean, what happened to the good old idea of point and shoot? Even Cod 4 and 5 were simple, but they were fun. Personally, I want CoD points completely scrapped, its just not that good. You need to buy a perk, complete the challenges to unlock the pro version and then buy the pro version. WHY?! I look back at previous cod games and think that black ops should have stayed in line and followed the same idea as MW2. I'm not saying they shouldn't have added new elements to the game, I'm saying the shouldn't have ditched the things w…

http://www.callofduty.com/blackops/dlc2 ... creenshots There is a new screenshot out that shows the map "Stockpile". You can see there is a missile of some kind in the air. At first I thought it was a valkyrie rocket but on the map it doesn't show that there is one in the air, I was just wondering if anybody knew what kind of rocket/missile it is. (By the way, I am new here so please don't hate ) EDIT: (its the first picture, the one with the famas acog)

Found shipping log in convoy, it has the name of every map and i says how many crates and barrels were delivered, just thought it was cool also theres 5 more spaces on the list, maybe there is no Convoy on the list so i guess that takes up 1 space, so maybe this means there are only 4 more maps left? Meaning only 1 more map pack?

Honestly,to me the First Strike maps were much better in my opinion. It's way too easy to camp on the new maps and it's more or less a race to get to the best camping spots.

I searched the forums a bit and couldint find anything about this. Did anyone notice that on the bookshelves of both houses in nuketown have books on them that have Edward richtofens name on them and say dg-2 and dg-3. Does Richtoen have something to do with nuketown or was it just something extra that treyarch threw in there? Sorry if this has been posted by someone else already but like I said, I checked and I coundint find anything about this.
