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 now this won't happen and that it is kinda stupid im just giving my theory. P.S Please don't flame

EDIT/NOTE: Black Ops is NOT Gold yet, meaning NO retailer has even 1 copy of the game and it is being pressed, only the company in charge of the pressing would be likely to have a copy. I would STILL like your opinions though. I want to go to my local Gamestop, and ask them if they have any early copies of Black Ops. If they do, I'm going to ask them for one, saying, "I'm a Cancer Survivor and I almost lost my leg to a tumor. I had internal bleeding and I had Chemotherapy practically all last year. Chemotherapy is basically like having the stomach flu x 20. Just think of throwing up every 5 seconds, and feeling all your energy just getting drained out of you. There…

I was watching a video on YouTube about some guy interviewing Josh Olin (I think it's Josh) and they were talking about call of duty black ops. At the very end of the interview the guy finally asked him if there will be zombies in this upcoming black ops game... Josh replyed saying there will be a co-op mode and it can have up tp four players (sound familiar?) but they can't give any more info out just yet. The way that he said and described that, it makes me feel like there will be a zombies mode. Thanks for reading.

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?

I like how they have kept this a secret for so long. (Or have I missed something... :?) The only hints we have got to what the rewards may be, are from Vahn's random tweets which everyone thinks are directly related to Black Ops (we actually never really know ) Well, they did confirm the first 5 prestige levels will be CaC Custom Slot unlocks. (MP Reveal) There are many things that could be rewarded for prestiging. I think guns/weapons may be a little too far though (balance issues! )

OK, so i found this tiny tiny little glitch on Berlin wall, it's barely worth knowing about, but i just wanted the credit! Go into the record shop. The one that looks over the middle path across the wall, next to the fountain thingy. Go upstairs and smash the window, jump on to the ledge (not straight out) and look down and edge forward until you see a white band. It's a hole in the map! You can throw grenades and stuff down there and see the explosion way far down. Sorry if i dont describe it very well, i'm not too good at describing :P

In the beginning of the MP footage you can see that the persons clan tag is on the back of the gun, "TMKS". The writing on the gun also look similar to the "SALLY" thats on the handgun. Is this something they were "hiding" from us by putting it right infront of us? Also theres a "mAc" clan, woot woot represent.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fgHmroPU ... re=channel If you pause at 00:15 when he is using the red dot sight instead of a red dot you can see a smiley face instead. Right after that when he reloads there is a smiley face sticker. So I think stuff like this is going to be part of Creat a Class 2.0. Also thanks to 720p at 0:19 right before he picks up his Camera Spike you can see the MP5K suppressed confirmed.At 00:25 you can see the jet taking off wich is a huge step up from the claw that comes down in the MW2 map. So much more active maps. At 00:26 his weapon has woodland so cameo for online is confirmed. Pause at 00:29 at the bottom left you can see the Cr…

I saw a post on DigitalWarfare247.com and this guy did his research and no more talking! Here it is! I have been looking into the release dates of the trailers and I see a pattern. A lot of these dates have something to due with communism be it nukes or vietnam. March 2nd:The US and South Vietnamese Air Force begins Operation Rolling Thunder, a sustained bombing campaign against North Vietnam. also Ho Chi Minh is elected the President of North Vietnam. the president of N.vietnam during the 50's and 60'. April 30th:Fall of Saigon (or Liberation of Saigon from the Communist perspective): Communist forces gain control of Saigon. The Vietnam War formally e…

Treyarch's David Vonderhaar is confident that the weapons will be balanced in Black Ops, saying "This time we have better data," in response to a fan's question about the Spectre M4. For those that don't know, the Spectre M4 is a submachine gun with a low rate of fire, low recoil, and high power. It is similar to the MP40 and the UMP45, both of which were complained about for being "overpowered". Treyarch also will be updating weapons after the release of Call of Duty: Black Ops if they are not balanced.I am very happy about this Twitter question: http://twitter.com/#!/DavidVonderhaar/s ... 7643021406 David Vonderhaar's Twitter

Ever since the last patch, many players have reported problems with the theatre mode in Call of Duty: Black Ops. Users logging in now are currently unable to see any videos made before the patch. Treyarch have responded to say that they are looking into the problem now. Users on the Steam forums have been reporting the problem. Currently, many people searching for old game replays are currently getting a connection error when trying to access to the Treyarch server. In response to a question on Twitter, Treyarch Community Manager Josh Olin mentioned that Treyarch are aware of the problem and are working on fixing it, saying “Yes, last I heard the PC team is looking i…
