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 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.

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

If they add Silencers for Sniper Rifles what do you think they should do. In MW2 it was a concept I was really looking forward to but failed. Its added recoil took away damage(witch got rid of OSK almost completely) and it didn't give you anything because it made a unique high pitched sound that people can still realize is a Sniper Rifle. So what do you think they should do in Black Ops. Personally I think it should add recoil but not take away any damage. And instead of a unique high pitched bullet noise it should have a sound similar to the AR's and SMG's. What advantage should it have for your'e snippy riffle?

After I read this I thought, it might mean that it is not official, but that does not mean it is not true! When he ended rumors about the leaked menu screenshot he said the word "fake", so I was thinking if this was fake he would have mentioned something about it not being true. He, however, only said it is not official! Either way we will find out in a couple of days...

Ok so i was making a GB clan names Special Operations Group, then i decided to go search images for the clan. when i found this image http://www.a101avn.org/A%20CCN%20Comanc ... 201%20.jpg it is linked to an article, the article is about a group of people (or company) that helped the SOG in the cold war era in veitnam, the only reason i suspect this has a part in black ops because the image resembles the Medal you get with the hardened edition. Here is the page for the article and the company [WARNING, A WALL OF TEXT] http://www.a101avn.org/Comanchero.htm Here you can see the hardened edition and the medal http://www.gamestop.com/Catalog/Product ... sku=200898

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mpeSv6r3m7w&feature=sub His idea was to basically flip the map so that way you have 2 maps in 1. The gun would still be on the right side and the letters would stay normal but this is a good way to "add" maps. http://callofduty.com/board/viewtopic.p ... 4d293914ae What do you say about this option in BO?

World at Wars Veteran mode was little more than increased damage, idiotic friendly AI, and a hell of a lot of spammed grenades. You didn't stand a chance if you stood up all the way. Enemies would run straight through the friendly line just to perform a one hit melee attack upon you. And a volley of grenades would constantly land surrounding you, with no place to run. I I still haven't completed blowtorch and corkscrew due to these factors. Specifically the banzai chargers that run past Roebuck, Polonsky, and everyone else just to get to me. Do you think Treyarch has improved this but not to the point of making it MW2 like. MW2's veteran was too easy to me.

Alright, so In ANTICIPATION of Black Ops, and members on the sight being primarily the only people I know who will be attending Midnight releases, I would like to know who will be attending one and be needing people to play with?

Go ahead and add your Time zone too List of members attending Midnight Releases: (Forum username/Gamer Tag/Time Zone) evoL Shady/GT: Sendaton/Pacific Igetmyspason/GT: Rgs Bloodhound/Pacific antvic/GT: Antvic/Eastern

Here me out on this... My friend and I who play Xbox everyday together were talking decided that Modern Warfare 2 is extremely annoying because of the unbalanced killstreaks. We have both tried barebones, and although it is better, we still want SOME killstreaks. We thought it would be a great idea to have a certain game mode where the killstreaks were based on the killstreaks in COD 4 (a.k.a. arguably the best 1st person shooter to date). It was so simple with 3, 5 and 7 killstreaks and they were VERY balanced because everybody has the same killstreaks and they are by no stretch overpowering. What do you guys think? Vote in the poll and give your reasoning…

Well after Modern Warfare 2 being such a let down, I'm not as hyped for this game as I probably should be. I know that black ops isn't made by IW but I am still feeling the dissapointment that mw2 scared me with. But then again, this might not be a bad thing because at least this way, if I was hyped up and the game was bad, I would feel let down again but because I'm not too excited, I won't care as much this time if the game turns out bad. So I guess I'm saying thank you Modern Warfare 2 for being such a fail So, are you guys excited for Black Ops or not?

Yes, I'm starting this up again. If any of you remember, I screwed the pooch a while back and made a... urg. Poor topic on the HQ about a mission where you track down JFK's shooter (yes carbon, I know you don't agree with this). In short an all out flame war started because of me. (Job well done?) Anywho, I found a tidbit on this controversy you may find interesting. Keep in mind that when I post this, I remain neutral on the matter. I give you JD's views on the matter: http://www.gamerzines.com/ps3/news/blac ... scene.html THINK BEFORE YOU POST!

Okay, we have a rough idea at best how it's all gonna play out. All the screenshots, previews and trailers have indicated that we play as CIA operatives throughout most of the game, be it MACV SOG in Nam, Operation 40 in Cuba, or the guys in the Ural Mountains operation. There's also a level in Iran where you play as the SAS. One question: Do you think we'll play as the Russians at all in this game? It's pretty much 50/50 as they haven't said anything about it yet. You didn't play as them at all in the Modern Warfare games, but almost all the WW2 games had a Russian campaign. Seeing as Treyarch has a Spetsnaz adviser, I'm inclined to think Black Ops might ha…

So far, we have a lot of weapons that have been hinted at, but remain unconfirmed in actual game footage or trailers. So my question is which of these do you, the community, most want proof of? here's a list off the top of my head, feel free to add. - M1911 ( only seen on poster, cover art etc. ) - MAC-10 ( seen on OXM art ) - G11 ( GKNova doc 10 ) - China Lake Grenade Launcher ( doc 10 ) - Flamethrower ( doc 10 ) - Skorpion ( Treyarch airsoft gun wall ) - L85 ( gun wall ) - (Mini?) UZI ( gun wall ) - WA2000 ( apparenly seen in Victor Charlie ) - AK-74u ( gun wall, multiplayer teaser? ) - IMI Galil ARM ( multiplayer teaser, blurry leaked…
