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.

The Forest as a pocket and its implications. Intro Hello everyone! This is a second thread carrying on from the post made by @anonymous which can be found here That thread began delving into the nature of pocket dimensions, the house, the giant, the beacon etc. (PS: I hope one day @RichKiller will reveal his theory about the beacon as a long form post he has some amazing insights which are not commonly known) But anyway, those topics themselves form an extremely complex web. So today I will be focusing on something a little simpler, a single concept that is easy to digest. The logical inevitability of the Tag der Toten ending. …

After the introduction of Grief mode on zombies I realized that the game mode itself had subtle implications towards the BOII Zombies universe. It introduced warring factions of CDC and CIA. These two Agencies were for some reason at odds with eachother. I can only assume it is an outbreak vs secret intelligence dilemma involving the general "conspiracy" that comes with an event like this. Basically CDC is responding or investigating and the CIA is there burning any evidence. Although you cannot directly kill the enemy agents you can hinder them and make sure they die. So from a storyline perspective perhaps 20 years afer what probably seemed like an act of war…

Missing Pages & Samantha's Dream DISCLAIMER: This is not a In-depth Loading screen topic. This is a Story line Topic! It just happens to be, the Loading screens play a HUGE part of it. Introduction Welcome to the topic. The point I want to address to you guys to make is the missing pages in the Nazi Zombies comic strip. The Zombies story has been going off this comic book since the beginning, and I think this is very interesting. The Comic Book The comic book as been rumored to be titles "Nazi Zombies" for obvious reasons. Although this would make sense for where we're at right now in the story line, it makes a ton of sense for the …

Samuel Stuhlinger has some interesting quotes that just so happen to fall into the area that I have been researching on & off for the last 6 months maybe more. "Oh those probers ain't getting me!" "Oh I know that lightning, that prober's on the way" "When I catch you, I'm gonna probe YOU! How about that" "Do not let it in here, or we are all probed for sure!" "Oooh holy snickies It's an Alien!" "Somewhere over there someone must be getting probed" "I know what those Aliens do inside their flying discs! ..

Hey guys, TacticalInsertion here with another thread, and this one is one of my finest in my eyes. There have been theories about Shi No Numa being in New Guinea, and while that is a really well thought out theory, I think I can 1-up it. :twisted: In World War 2, there was a biological weapons research and human experimentation team known as Unit 731, and they had many compounds. In the Rebirth intel for the campaign, it states that there was Japanese biological research under Unit 731 and the Imperial Japanese Army in Manchuria, China. As we know, Group 935 got the blueprints of the biological weapon Ray Gun from the Rising Sun Facility, known as Shi No Numa to us.…

[center:2mch6f68]The (G)rand Zombie Design From The Past To The ?uture & Back First Modern Re-Discovery of Element 115:- The Tunguska event occurs. The Tunguska event, or Tunguska explosion, was an enormously powerful explosion that occurred near the Podkamennaya Tunguska River in what is known as Krasnoyarsk Krai, Russia, at about 7:14 a.m. on June 30, 1908. The explosion is believed to have been caused by the air burst of a large meteoroid or comet fragment at an altitude of 5–10 kilometres (3–6 mi) above the Earth's surface. Different studies have yielded varying estimates of the object's size, with general agreement that it was a few tens of metr…

The Aetherial Multiverse Theory This is my theory on what Aether is and what the Multiverse (or Multiverses as stated by Blundell) is/are. I do not claim to know exactly what Treyarch intended as the "true" explanation for this. This is a just a theory. Before I get started I would highly recommend reading @NaBrZHunter's The Nature of Aether. It gives a very good explanation of what Aether is, especially in its relation to the "terrestrial" "plane" (I put these things in quotes because there are many different terms that describe these things). But I wanted to go a bit further with it and also try to find a somewhat realistic explanation for the multive…

If you'd prefer to watch and/or listen, you can find the companion video here Introduction With the announcement of ‘Die Maschine’, we received our formative introduction to the Zombies Storyline of Black Ops Cold War - a sequel to our previous, ten year story - dubbed ‘The Dark Aether Storyline’. For those who were paying a modicum of attention, the notion of a “Dark Aether” should be at least somewhat familiar, as it is referenced explicitly in the ending of Tag Der Toten. This, however, is far from the first explicit mention - and by delving into the realm of allusion and speculation, we can scope out echoes of this conceptual opposite of the Aether,…

(If you'd prefer to watch and/or listen, you can find the companion video here) After some thought, I felt my prior thread required a sequel, as there was just too much mythological background left unexplored. As such, I strongly recommend you visit the prior post in order to make sure you can follow along with this one. Specifically, we will be examining the mythological backdrop to the Aether and Dark Aether, specifically from the Norse myths, and how this can be used to help us going forward. Disclaimer: I am not claiming that any of this is canon, merely an inspiration for elements of the Storyline. Laying the Groundwork Our first introduc…

Origins left many with questions as to how Maxis was around for the rest of our story after dying. Was he a Quadrotor that whole time? Did Richtofen put his brain in a new body? Though people believe these theories I believe the answers already exist. This is the first time we see Ludvig Maxis (chronologically speaking). He is already quite old, possible late 50's to mid 60's it is hard to tell, which shows he would not have been fit to have a young daughter and work with 935 all the way up to 1941 and beyond. This plays a vital role in the theory. In spite of this Maxis is infected and dies. Richtofen takes out his brain and preserves it to only later put it in …

Devoted to @RadZakpak, who's discussion on the Discord pretty much involved this entire idea (so all kudos to him) and @MixMasterNut, who's Moon loading screen analysis continues to provide a lot of support in my threads. Shangri-La is the prototype of Die Glocke Die Glocke Die Glocke, also known as the Bell, was a purported top secret Nazi scientific technological Wunderwaffe. It is a metallic object said to be between 12 to 15 ft tall and about 9 ft in diameter, in the shape of a large bell.

[center:3malhur5]In Edward Bulwer-Lytton’s novel “The Coming Race”, he tells the tale of a lowly traveler who finds himself trapped underground with the mysterious race called the Vril-ya. As I am sure you know, the Vril-ya were referred to as a semi-advanced race that used the power of a substance called Vril to give life to their underground society. Depending on how it was used, Vril could an object of destruction, or of healing and energy. We have several ties to the Vril-ya in the zombies storyline. The real question is where did the Vril-ya go, and what lead to their fate? In this grim topic, I will attempt to outline the final years of the Vril-ya. The first …

(Reposting here because I accidentally posted it under Research and Development thinking it was the proper spot of Asylum and don't see a way to transfer it from there to here.) As we all know, there's plenty of mystery surrounding The Giant, especially regarding the weird radios, Maxis doing the Hide-and-Seek, and Icarus being on the roof of the building behind the power switch. This time a question might actually have the simplest answer. During the climax of Mob of the Dead, the souls (JUST the souls) of the prisoners are transported to the Golden Gate Bridge. But this time, the plane doesn't crash because Weasel meant to bring them here. So what happens t…

[center:2rkhc5bp]The Legend of Shambhala (Shangri La) When the Tibetan monks first saw sailors from the west, they asked why they did not come from the inner Earth like the others of their kind, the western sailors were confused by this statement.

The Grand Connection The Fall of Angel Contrary to popular belief when the universe was created humans were not the first “intelligent” life forms. In fact God is known to have created many non-human intelligent creatures. One of them we recognize as the winged messengers of God you read about in the bible. They were created as beautiful life forms that performed the lord’s tasks. Among the myriad of Angels were the ones who rebelled against God and fell from heaven. They are known as the Fallen Angels and before they rebelled lived on certain planets and actually had civilizations throughout the universe. Satan has been said to have reigned over many physi…

Hey all, Last saterday I promised @Tac that I would make a post regarding the role of the Vril-Ya and Lovecraft mythos in our Zombies lore. Understand that, currently, I am in a rush and run out of time but I planned to release this tonight. Since this concerns a long and deep subject, I thought I could release it in parts. Most of the chapters are already finished but I haven't included (1) the references and (2) the last chapters and details. Keep in mind that this is a WIP project and it isn't complete yet, but I thought you guys might appreciate some reading material this saterday evening. Therefore, enjoy, but keep an eye out for updates! In the Beg…

In a previous treatise, “The Nature of the Aether,” I explored the concept of the Aether and how, with the construction and proper configuration of a Matter Transference Device or MTD, it could be harnessed and used for the to displace objects and persons in spacetime. However, it must be noted that an MTD is powered with consumable Element 115, and therefore, has limited capabilities, and even more limited terrestrial fuel supply. Often confused with the MTD, the MPD (Moon Pyramid Device, by our best estimation) is the subject of this treatise: an ancient Vril machine discovered in January of 1940 by Dr. Edward Richtofen in his first attempt to teleport…

This theory is a little different from what I usually like to do. It reaches for some things and presumes others - a dangerous combination when trying to write a good zombies theory - but it's so damn interesting, I've been working on it on and off for months on gathering information about it, and even if there's a kernel of truth, it might just change everything. WHO ARE THE ILLUMINATI? Contrary to popular belief, the Illuminati are/were a real organisation, not just the stuff of conspiracy. Founded in Bavaria, in what is today Germany (throughout the middle-ages to renaissance, as with many European countries, Germany was constantly splitting, reforming…

5/23/13 Welcome to one of the many unreleased threads I've written over the last 6 months or so. Over the next month or two I will try to finish up and release some of the better ones, so keep your eye out for more. This has been my favorite thread to write. And I'll be honest, I never planned on releasing it. I started writing this thread a short time after Black Ops 2's release last year, when the Hanford Site was confirmed as the first map. It was a theory I and a few others were pondering for awhile, and when I saw the Hanford Site being the first map, I decided to start this thread. What ensued over the next few weeks was an insane amount of research. I can't …

Thank you for your consideration! ************************* With the release of Black Ops 2, and now the advent of Black Ops 3, Treyarch's Call of Duty Zombies mode has grown increasingly popular, with more new folk joining the community daily-which is awesome. The problem is...with the under-emphasis placed on World at War and Black Ops, the community as a whole's unfamiliarity with the best part of the whole story has become chronic, with an overemphasis on Mob of the Dead: Alcatraz, "The Devil," or "An…

Before you read the following theory, I must give credit to RADAUSTINS27 for making several videos related to this theory. I have found additional proof that will help further prove this theory that I thought I must show, so I made this thread to contribute to the zombies community and get this idea out there. This main concept of this theory is that there is an infinite amount of universes. This means that there is a infinite number of identical or nearly identical worlds in which the zombie characters we know and love are in. Normally this wouldn't matter because we have no way of manipulating space and time, but with element 115 it is possible for one universe to o…

Inspired by this incredible post (Three Realms and the Fourth Dimension) by the renowned @Shooter, but having some slightly (ever so slightly) deviating viewpoints (or perhaps what I feel are more of "clarifying" viewpoints, without presuming upon the author's intentions), I present an in-depth thesis on the Nature of the Aether as a simultaneously uni-dimensional loop and a cross-dimensional gateway. The following thesis is broken down into four parts, each exploring the properties, segments, potential, and boundaries of the Aether. 1. Aethereal Physics & Linear Timelines 2. Uni-Dimensional Loop 3. Cross-Dimensional Intrusion 4. Introduction to Aethereal Control…
