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 know there's probably some threads like this, but here, you give an idea for a map pack consisting of 4 MP maps and 1 zombies map. Heres my idea: Rouge Operations Pack- Junkyard~ Smaller map, based on the begining of Executive Order, very "maze-like." Rusulka~ Very linear, small length-wise, very long, based off of the boat in Redemption. Landing~ Like this -> http://callofduty.wikia.com/wiki/Landing Camp~ Like this -> http://callofduty.wikia.com/wiki/Jungle_(Canceled_Map) Zombie map- Source~ Area 51, the "source" of the Element 115 (hence the name), tRichtofen and the gang are teleported there after the Thundergun causes the teleporter to…

Ok, well I want to start by saying hi. So, Hi! Ok, now onto the point here, I was just roaming around the web thinking of Black Ops when I saw a picture of Liam Neeson and he somehow reminded me of Reznov. Then this got me thinking, he would be cool for a Black Ops movie role, even though that wouldn't happen. So I came here to make this topic: Who in real life looks familiar to a Black Ops character? And, if they were to make a movie, who would fit the role of a character? I already know that someone is thinking of Ice Cube and Ben Stiller . . . :lol:

I think some of the pro perks effects are overpowered and others underpowered. For example, ghost pro gives you no gamertag shown when aimed at and people can't see you with infrared scopes and Helicopters can't see you, while lightweight pro only gives you no fall damage. Another example is hacker pro ( i love it btw), You can hack carepackages and equipment and turrets and not get seen by motion sensors while marathon pro only gives you unlimited sprint. What I try to say is that they should have putted other pro effects to perks like lightweight or marathon to balanced it a little more because its not the same to pay 3000 cod points for ghost pro than to pay the …

Hey All, I was looking at the perks, and wanted to see what kind of combination will i be using in Black Ops, and looking at the Tiers i noticed these 2 combinations: (1) Tier 1: Light Weight Tier 2: Sleight of Hand Tier 3: Marathon (2) Tier 1: Light Weight Tier 2: Steady Aim Tier 3: Marathon These 2 will most likely be the perks used by most. With no falling damage no on Marathon Pro (i know its not confirmed yet), and most likely faster aim down the seight on Sleight of Hand Pro, you might see alot of people running around with Subz, or Balistic knifes and we might see a whole new (Marathon, Lightweight, Commando) or (OMA,…

Well first I want to note that this was from CovertGunman, not my find. He tweeted Now, I have the url here - http://gameinformer.com/b/news/archive/2010/08/02/analyst-subscription-plans-possibly-coming-for-call-of-duty-and-starcraft-ii.aspx that was included in the tweet. We all know Activision is now in it for the money. They know Black Ops is already raising the bar on pre-orders. So they're probably thinking, "how can we make more money?". So my main concern now is that of what if Activision does introduce a subscription service? What then? I know one thing, I would not be buying any more CoD games for their MP. It's interesting what money can do to people, is…

Hey what's up guys! I just found this online and thought it was pretty cool. It didn't have the decals on the Jeep in the picture so I wonder what it might have. Think they might hand out copies of BO with each purchase? It's the least they could do. It's $30,000! I thought the Prestige edition was a lot! http://blogs.wsj.com/drivers-seat/2010/ ... s-vehicle/ PSN: Flatlander929

One of our moderators, MINUS_Stl found this profile on Xbox.com, it was originally posted via his Twitter. The page doesn't seem to load right now but the gamertag is "BLACK OPS TEAM" and it is a person named Tom from Leicester, England. It's funny because I knew someone named Tom from Leicester aswell.

Hello, My mappack seems to load slower than my friends ones. I deleted and re-downloaded it and it still loads slowly. For example if we get Kowloon I spawn 20 SECONDS later. Did anyone else experience this? Or can somebody help me with it?

I just read on the Black Ops facebook that someone said the WaW maps are in the Playstation Store now. Is that true or is the guy blowing smoke up everyone's @$$? I'm not around my PS3 right now so can't look myself, but I know they wasn't as of last night when I was browsing around, unless I looked in the wrong place but pretty sure I wasn't. Don't flame me or anything for asking, just wondering.

WOO my first post!!! Anyways after watching the multiplayer teaser it was obvious that customizable killstreaks will be making a return from mw2. So what killstreaks are you guys looking forward to or not looking forward to. Personally i can't wait to hop into a private match and race those rc cars around the map, but also the napalm strike as i was very fond of the stealth bomber in mw2. Also if i remember correctly awhile back someone from treyarch said that killstreak rewards don't count toward your killstreak which means people have to earn their killstreaks which is great. thoughts on that too!!!

Ok so I was going through the Black Ops trailers to try and find some clues about the game and at the VERY beginning of the trailer it shows Woods watching the space shuttles take off but there is documents being crossed out in front of the footage and I found these coordinates or whatever they are called getting crossed out but it says 21º 2 N 105º 51 E. Here is a picture: Once I found it I decided to type it into google earth and see what I can get out of it. Here is a picture of what the page looked like when I searched it: I then noticed that this was located in Vietnam and in the trailer picture under the coordinates is the words: Vietnam War. This m…

Don't flame me if this is already a topic but I found a pattern, first strike,esclation, maybe retaliation because i think treyarch is using military terms. also a glitch kind of happened to my roommate, he went to check it out on the hard drive[because we sometime don't to play the map pack due to bugs] and it said retaliation map pack.
