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.

Yup, so for all those who preordered the prestige edition, might want to have a collection of batteries to go with it. Link is provided put pasted the text here for the benefit of the readers. http://www.gamerzines.com/ps3/news/blac ... eries.html Picking up the Prestige Edition of Call of Duty: Black Ops for that exclusive RC XD car? Well, it looks like you'll need to stock up on the batteries as well if you want to use it. According to HMV, the RC XD car requires a total of twelve batteries to operate, six for the actual car, and another six for the remote control, though the retailer hasn't specified which type of battery they are, nor how long the batte…

I am going to tell you what I think might be proof that zombies will be in Black Ops...On Call of duty World at War, if you click on solo play for nazi zombies it will tell you the descriptions to all four maps. Read the description for der riese. It says "The Giant is rising. Face the might of the Nazi Zombies in their heartland. This is were it all began. This is were the master plan took shape. Is this were it all ends?" Would Trayach say "Is this were it all ends" just because, or does this mean ZOMBIES ROUND 2 ?!?!?!?!?! EDIT: Please delete this thread Carbon because no one even agrees with me a bit. I used to like this website, untill now when people cant ha…

Hey guys, before I say anything else I warn that I'm posting from my phone, now to the main subject... Gamestop has pulled out all the stops with this release, as I type this I'm currently being bombarded with the noise of fans in anticipation of the madness that is to ensue in a few short hours, as well as the amazing Bro Hymn by pennywise, being played by a local radio station here to pump up the crowd. The station is joined by a slew of other attractions(juice it up, airsoft sales, a DJ), made to draw your attention from the fact your waiting in a parking lot for a game:) That's right, I came expecting to wait outside like I have for MW2 and Halo but gam…

Apparently, Black Ops has already been reviewed by the Official Playstation Magazine UK. "The single-player campaign gets 4 out of 5 stars; it's COD, but it does enough new and fresh to keep you hooked." — OPM "5 out of 5. Better match types, less opportunity for cheating, better experience. The new customization options are a blessing, and it seems more balanced all round - apart from that cheeky RC Car." — OPM, on Black Ops multiplayer. http://systemlink.gamersguidetolife.com ... ew-is.html Its all Looking good so far. Now all that's left is Zombies!!! :D

I have seen some gameplay of Black Ops and I have to say, the new smoke grenade is very realistic. Not only does it actually look like smoke but it also moves like smoke. Remember in previous CoD gamed when smoke could go right through walls and other objects? Well not any more. Now it moves around walls and is quite amazing looking. Nice work Treyarch. :mrgreen:

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…

We've seen people wearing Black Ops t-shirts in interviews (and not just members of staff, I don't think), so I was wondering if these are available to buy anywhere, or if they will be made available at all. Thanks for any help.

Every time i log onto black ops. a message comes up that says "call of duty black ops servers are down". and evrey time i try to play multi player the error message for disk unreadable comes up. or my xbox just freezes, or it will simply just say the servers are down. so i thought it was the disk, so i exchanged it at bestbuy for a new one, and it still does the exact same thing. I made a free 1 month account and when i play on it it lets me play multi player zombies but still freezes when i try to play actual multiplayer. but the error message about the servers being down never comes up on this new account.....idk what it is thats wrong but i know its not the disk. any …

Taken from CVG. Sauce: http://www.computerandvideogames.com/ar ... ?id=271261 Call of Duty: Black Ops makes use of a new facial animation capture system so realistic that it had to be toned down for some kills. "We've completely changed the way we do facial animation," director Dave Anthony told OPM. "Some of the stuff we've done with Gary Oldman's character is amazing." But animation director Dominique Drozdz said that the animation was a little too good in places. "There were situations going too far," he added. "It was a a contextual kill where you were twisting the neck. It was too much. The throat cutting [is] nasty, but that was worse."…
