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.

Not sure if this happening to anyone else but ever since the latest patch the C4 seems to be acting funny on me. Its really the only equip i use besides tac insertions and its really getting annoying. It seems like sometimes (most of the time) i set my C4 go to detonate the suckers and nothing happens then soon after a grenade gets chucked at it and i get that wonderful "your equipment is gone". I have been using C4 ever since black ops came out and never had these issues, just wondering if this could be caused by the recent patch or if my game is acting wierd. Does anyone have the list of items that were patched recently?

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 seen someone mention the Illuminati during the Cold War in an earlier post, so I did some research. The Soviet Union started trying to people with "Psychic abilities" as weapons, as a way to read minds and mainly as a way to find info from the Americans. And apparently the US got wind of this, and also tried to develop this psychic soldiers. So what if, these psychic soldiers played some part in the campaign or even this "co-op" *cough*zombies*cough* mode that we've heard about. Like for example, they could appear and they could harm you with their minds, the only way you can avoid getting hurt is by hiding behind cover, then while they take time to "r…

Ok if you haven't seen, you can customize a lot of your persona on CoD BO, so much that they say this: So... Why don't we make a clan of 'CoDz' then put it everywhere so this site get more info. Who says this ain't a great idea? We'll also be able to see people from this site more easily which would be nice... to bump into annother CoDz member. Keep the emblem as your own, just put codz as your clan.... oh here's the vid... heads up to phillips445 for finding this w0_r4-eTmlA

I know this is in the wrong section but i just want to get it out there. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5SNT4Zs4RpU He does make it clear,in modern games theres should be more button mapping in games for people such as disabled gamers. I myself have also heard alot of problems from people doing simple things such as fire and use there sights as well. Hopefully you will sign the petition and maybe it could even happen for black ops but still,it is something that should be implented in alot of games. Heres the link to petition http://www.petitiononline.com/cu5t0m/petition.html

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.

Hi everyone. NOT LONG TO GO NOW One quick question - Has anyone else pre-ordered there BO off Amazon. I am only asking because my order (BO Hardened) was dispatched early this morning (Sunday 7th UK). I didn't make much of this until I saw its estimated date of arrival is MONDAY 8th. Could I be so lucky?! I would have thought amazon being a large company with literally millions of pre-orders woould be very strict and make sure everyone got it on the day (9th). May well be a typo on there part or not end up being true, but was just wondering if anyone else was in same position. All I can do now is pray Peace and see you all on Black Op…

OK. So i made this thread cause i'm bored (also cause carbon will see this if it has his name in it) and i bet people out there have some questions about things in black ops. I will start. Is the noobtube abused/overpowered at all? Is anything you saw overpowered or was it all balanced? What the hell another question for you carbon I have seen 5 guns so far with exactly the same iron sights, are they interchangeable or what? here is a pic of the one i am talking about (that gun is the enfield BTW) is the same as this one and many others (FAMAS) Now your turn

I thought we could get some questions together for Carbon to ask or find out himself when playing Black Ops at the big event on September 1st. That's if you don't mind, Carbon. I have a couple: - Will UAVs/Recon Planes stack like in MW2? E.g. you call in two at the same time and get a minutes worth of it. - Will there be different ammo in multiplayer? Hope you don't mind me making this thread.

Should treyarch use community ideas from day one? For the next (treyarch) cod game? Yes but, before that happens we need to know if treyarch is gonna either continue the black ops storyline and stay within the cold war era or go to a different era in history. they have to continue black ops, how many more battles have the us been apart of in history? continueing it would allow them to add on to customization and get every last detail perfected. So anyway if they continue black ops, here's some question's we should discuss 1. should they ship the game in two discs? since black ops disc was so cramped full with epicness. (one disc with multipl…

Treyarch, your Multiplayer isn't really a success, so maybe try focusing on zombies? It's clear that Zombies is a much bigger success than Multiplayer. Wager Matches seems to be your only fun Multiplayer mode. I stopped playing Black Ops and now play MW2. That's a message.

Rage quiters. You all have seen them. You might have evan done it a few times. But this time, rage quitting has gone much too far. I was playing domination on Hotel. It was a pretty good game. I was using marathon pro, warlord and ghost. I took out my AK74u red-dot + rapid fire (don't hate, it's a good combo) and my ballistic knife. With my AK I got like a 8-9 killstreak STANDING IN ONE SPOT (lol) and then I took out my ballistic knife and started running circles around the enemy spawn (thank you Ghost) and ended up with a killstreak of somewhere in between 25-30. It was an awesome game. So I thought, when I die I will record this using theatre mode. But just as…

Hey I may have found something neat. If you zoom in out of the map (I can't give exact coordinates where) in Jungle with a sniper rifle you can see a random box no kidding. I will provide pictures another time because it's 11:15 pm in Australia right now... Wait what. PS: If this has already been found can a mod delete this? Oh and yes I have searched the forum. Thank you and Peace. 8-)

So Raptr is encouraging everyone to play COD: BO (as if people need encouraging.) The more you play, the more prizes they unlock in a contest they are running (there is a lovely Alienware PC they are giving away.) It's an interesting concept, with prizes unlocked very 250,000 hours racked up. I do wonder if they will hit 4 million though to unlock all the stuff, since looking at the Raptr charts on their homepage, Halo: Reach has about 1.5 million hours tracked in the last month so far. The contest page is here: http://blog.raptr.com/2010/11/04/call-o ... e-you-win/
