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.

Vahn has been very busy tweeting answers to questions about Black Ops MP. Here is all the information we have learned from this: - The FAL is single shot and the base configuration is metal. - CODPoints cannot be bought with real money or MS Points. - Need 6 people to do a Wager match. - There are 4 Snipers (I only know about the L96, the Dragunov and the WA2000, what is the 4th?) - No Danger Close Pro type perks. - You don't have to unlock everything with XP and Rank. - Attack dogs kill in one bite. - You can report boosters via their Playercard (Not Gamercard!), and then Treyarch will watch the report in Theater Mode. - Earn CODPoints by leveling u…

Ok, so remember Game (UK) and Gamestop (US) have/had that deal where if you pre-order the hardened/prestige edition you get some extra things exclusively to these two stores? Well I received those things today. Below are some pictures of what I received. I also got a CD with some trailers and screens and what not on it. More information further down. The above 4 pictures are the "Lazer Cell" After going through the disk that was provided, I can confirm that the only content on there are the trailers which we have seen so far. (MP Teaser, Prestige,Uncut Reveal Trailer, Debut Teaser and the Wagermatch trailer Also included a…

Hi everyone. I'm kind of new to this website so please don't blame me for posting something stupid but I found on a website called VideoGamesBlogger that there is information hinting at Black Ops II. -So. If you find all the intel in the last mission, Redemption, you'll hear the CIA discussing how Jason Hudson, Alex Mason and Grigori Weaver are national security threats and the SAS is sending a special agent called Jonathan to eliminate them. The memo is dated October 1978 which is 10 years after Black Ops ends. -You'll also find an email on Masons computer. The memo is date 1978 and is warning Mason to stay out of South Africa because the CIA is planning on him to sl…

Here is the FAQ for Black Ops in 3D. Taken from http://www.callofduty.com/3D 1. WHICH PLATFORMS SUPPORT CALL OF DUTY: BLACK OPS IN 3D? Xbox 360, Playstation 3, and PC only. 2. DO I NEED TO BUY A SPECIAL VERSION OF THE GAME IN ORDER TO PLAY IN 3D? No. The Xbox 360, PS3, and PC versions of Call of Duty: Black Ops are capable of displaying the game in active-shutter stereoscopic 3D. 3. HOW DO I TURN ON 3D? For consoles, toggling between traditional and 3D is performed through the Options Screen accessed directly from the Main Menu. On PCs where Nvidia 3D Vision™ is detected, 3D display is automatic, but users have the option of disabling 3D. 4. DO I…

Ok so recently, I think after one of the updates almost 80% of the time im in a game my connection is yellow or red! :x Now I think i know what your gonna say, but its not my connection because I went and check on MW2, W@W, and MW1 and my connection was green... for example just a few mins. ago my connection was yellow, so i went to check it on MW2 and what do you know... Its green connection. (and the only games that lag because of my internet are L4D2 and Bur.) *Oh, and I search for Locale. So whats up with Black Ops Connection or better yet, mine to Black Ops.

Someone posted something about this a few days ago, it was leaked, but now Activision have confirmed it. It launches for Xbox 360 and PS3 on June 28th and contains the First Strike map pack, not all the DLC! So that means Map Pack 4 could still be on the horizon! Just to add what I mean by this is, the original thread I seen rumouring this said because it contains all the DLC, he doubted MP4 will ever be released, but now it turns out it's only bundled with First Strike, meaning the possibility of MP4 releasing is still out there. http://www.gamestop.com/browse?nav=16k-Call+of+Duty+Black+Ops+Limited+Edition+with+DLC Check Joystiq's post for t…
