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.

Specifically the HK21 and RPK. The other two have balance to them, but IMO these two guns just stink. The only thing they really need to do is put in 60 or maybe 70 rounds by default. Why on earth would an LMG REQUIRE you to use extended magazines :?: :!: With just 30 rounds by default, it's basically a slow moving assault rifle with no damage drop-off. I know Black Ops has been out for a LONG time, but Treyarch still needs to support their game no matter how long it's been.

I wish that the Dragunov still had it's own reticule. I thought that it was cool and made it stand out from the other sniper rifles, but now it just feels like a really bad WA2000

Hanger 18 is one of the new multiplayer maps available in the new third DLC for Black Ops called Annihilation. I watched the new video of the annihilation map pack on CALLOFDUTY's YouTube page. In the video Dan Bunting explains how the map Hanger 18 is based in the "highly controversial Area 51" and also he said that "there is a lot of easter eggs that play up to the conspiracy theory aspect." First Dan Bunting said it was taken place in Area 51 but its not JUST covering Area 51 as a whole because Hanger 18 is a real life hanger that is in Area 51. Hanger 18 is a very large hanger in Area 51 that people believe holds the remains of the Roswell UFO incident that happ…

This is one tactic that will help you get it easily. Step 1. Equip the sentry gun killstreak Step 2. Kill enough people to obtain that killstreak Step 3. Throw said killstreak package in enemy territory Step 4. Either camp and watch what they do with it, or wait until an enemy calls in your sentry gun Step 5. Knife your stolen sentry gun Step 6. Unlock said ghost pro challange Step 7. Be awesome and pwn n00bs AhUMc9R5D1A

I would like to see a game that rewards players for playing as a squad. I get so frustrated playing as a single person and getting shot/stabbed in the back. I think it would be awesome to have a game that gives you "perks" for staying within a certain distance of your team mates. Working as a team would increase moral which might give you a slightly faster reload or you might get better accuracy when ADS because you have more eyes/a spotter scanning for movement. Some thing like that. What do you guys think.

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…

Again, this is completely rumored. This is the supposed pattern First Strike Escalation Annihilation Retaliation This could possibly be something Treyach would make. I think this theory is true, and is quite clever Still Rumors, but hopefully an announcement soon

If anyone has any lol, I thought it'd be cool to share either YOUR theater clips, or some of your favorites from the community that you've seen.

Which do you look forward to the most, in general? In World at War it had always been the Zombies because, quite frankly, the zombies in WaW were a whole lot funner than any zombie map in Black Ops. Pick any zombie map from WaW and pair it against any BO zombie map, the zombie map from WaW wins. In Black Ops, you already should know my answer, I look forward to the multiplayer maps more. I can easily say that the zombies in black ops are too big and contain too many features to make it constantly playable. The perfect zombie map IMO is Der Reise (spelling?). Perfect size, understandable objective that tagged along with a story that started to make sense, and wa…

Not sure if this happening to anyone else but ever since the latest patch the C4 seems to be acting funny on me. Its really the only equip i use besides tac insertions and its really getting annoying. It seems like sometimes (most of the time) i set my C4 go to detonate the suckers and nothing happens then soon after a grenade gets chucked at it and i get that wonderful "your equipment is gone". I have been using C4 ever since black ops came out and never had these issues, just wondering if this could be caused by the recent patch or if my game is acting wierd. Does anyone have the list of items that were patched recently?
