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.

UFO spotted on Kowloon!
by Guest xeinpo- 5 replies
- 2.1k views
I was playing Kowloon earlier. Lobbing Tomahawks across the map and no scoping like a ass like i always do at one point i wen't to throw my tomahawk but i saw something strange in the sky. It was a sparkling light (It looked like the "Team rocket blasting off again light) With a white trail following. I checked Theater mode and it is not a Valkyrie rocket which i first believed it could be. Now this is probably just some Airplane effect by Treyarch but i am starting to think different. Alpha snake has pointed out a lot of easter eggs in Kowloon. Now i thought "maybe people have found this the day the map came out and it is really old" so i checked youtube and instead of f…

As we've seen with the last couple of call of duty titles a number of supermarkets in the UK are having a midnight opening and price war for the sale of blackops. For MW2 they had copies on sale for £27 instead of the full £55 which was RRP and ive had confirmation that a number are looking to do the same again but copies will be limited. If you're in the uk ANd haven't preordered and fancy a bargain I suggest you check if your local Asda or Sainsburys is planning to open and if they are then get there early as only a couple of hundred copies likely per store. Good luck and hope to see you online at 12.10!!!!

Since Black Ops is coming out tomorrow I know some of us will be wanting to post unboxing vids/pics onto this website. So what I was thinking is that we can all use this one thread to post our unboxing pics/vids so there aren't 20+ threads on the same thing. :)

I was watching the gknova6 video, and i noticed something: on the two rightmost screens, you will see a soldier in a winter uniform and gas mask, with his back to the player, he will turn right and fire an lmg that doesn't look like any of the confirmed ones. -It has a large box mag underneath (containing a belt): -this eliminates the RPK, Stoner 63, and Hk21, as those use 30-ish round mags, not a belt -the M60 is the only lmg that's belt fed, and it's box mag is on the LEFT, not underneath. So what could it be? -the RPD is possible, but it's belt is in a ROUND drum, not square. -it's waaay to early to be an M249 or M240, and the character u…

I tried mygamercard.net to see if there were any Treyarch people playing BO. But they all (as far I know about their GT's) had privacy settings enabled. But in the preview, it showed Major Nelson, playing an unknown game. Black Ops maybe? E: On the site, when you hovered over the unknown game, it was called '?'.

I have no study on this, but in my experience what you choose as your username determines how mature you are. You wanna know how? Choosing "fart specialist" (yes this is real) brings you WAAAAY down on that scale. Choosing "I make Anarchy" (another real one) brings it up and guess which one will be the better player? So, what do you guys think of my prediction?

So one day I was listening to all nightmare long and at 3:15 into the video it said "Lazarus" stirs. Then I automatically think of the V-R11. according to the video Lazarus heals all wounds and re-animates the dead. So maybe the V-R11 contains "Lazarus". And what does the V-R11 do?......Exactly. CNoPbL :D

Courtesy of http://blackops.digitalwarfare247.com/news/mixed-declassified-multiplayer-info My favorite thing is that there will be split screen online. For now I assume it's only two people, but I'm hoping for 4. # of MP maps in Black Ops is 14 and we've currently seen 4 of them. Apparently the number of maps was released at the MP reveal earlier this month. New to me: Classified guns in each class. And the only way to get them is to unlock all the other guns in a class. Sweetness. Now all I need to know is what co op is going to be like and I'll know enough to pre order the proper version.

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.

So i'm playing through the campaign on veteran, and when i finally beat it, it gives me the trophy (on PS3 obviously) for beating the last couple missions on veteran, and for beating the campaign on any difficulty, but not for veteran. I then look and see that i for some reason don't have the trophy for beating the first 3 missions on veteran. I go back and redo all 3 missions again making sure it was on veteran, and still no trophy. Any solution to this? Or will i just have to wait for a patch?

I was playing Black Ops and looking for clues, intel, and just little easter eggs. Well I started a new game and I'm gonna try to beat the game on Veteran. Anyway, I noticed something that caught my eye. Theres little clocks throughout the level Vorkuta, and they all say 9:55. Well, that means that the little hand is on the 9 and the big hand is on the 11. There are 2 or 3 clocks on this level and they all have the same time. I just thought it was interesting and figured I'd make a thread about it to see if anybody else noticed it or had any ideas that may involve the same issue.

It appears the secret is out....new leaks springing up which are major spoilers for both single player and zombie mode. I've noted articles on CVG, Prouct Review news, codblackopsblog and others with major spoilers and no *spoiler warning* titles... So if you want to keep up the suspense until release day (and it's well worth it), or until Treyarch reveal a zombie trailer....be careful!!! I imagine more and more leaks will appear in the coming days...and despite Activision removing videos, there are screenshots galore... I'm really rather annoyed PR News spoiled it for me I must resist the urge to click "black ops zombie" in google news....bummer.
