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.

Hi, I'm Eric. This is my first post on the forums, so forgive me if this has already been brought up somewhere. Link me your thread and I'll credit you. Anyway, while I like to believe the "Vril people are using Richtofen as a puppet" or "Infinite Time Loop" theories, I decided to sit down and come up with another proper storyline explanation of my own that doesn't involve those. Basically, Richtofen has had a hand in the creation of the Flesh cult. They state that they have "ascended to a higher plane of enlightenment and are not in danger from the zombies." What I think this means is that once someone joins the Flesh and eats a zombie, Richtofen, being in control, pre…

I have been doing some thinking, as I'm sure pretty much everyone on this forum and COD zombie lovers do as always. Before Black Ops 2 came out there were a lot of voices saying that they wanted to see new characters. Also many voices were saying that they wanted to see more players be possible in new maps. Treyarch as always does a very good job at listening to the community and what it wants. The developers likely did not want to have the first few maps have the original 4 and 4 new characters thrown in. It would by no means allow the new characters to develop their personalities as well. We all know the original 4 are a staple of COD zombies. The original 4 would …

Hi all, I've recently come across numerous posts talking about how the events in Great Leap Forward take place before Green Run. Well, I've got a couple reasons why these theories are inaccurate. Feel free to give a counter argument. 1. Maxis' Opening Transmission: "The energy fields are NO LONGER disrupting my communications via electrical devices. You will hear me, and you should listen." As we know, Maxis was having trouble talking to us with the power on, so we had to perform his EE with the power off. So, when he says he is no longer having problems, he obviously must of had them BEFORE Great Leap Forward. So unless he has trouble again in DLC, which I…

In the cut scene for Die Rise, Stu says something like,"what do you mean Mend the rift?" As you know, The o4 caused multiple paradoxes and they screwed up the rift or the correct flow of time. I think that whatever was talking to Stu was telling him to fix the flow of time so that everything can go back to normal. In a future DLC, they (lets say) Do what that voice tells them to do and that causes the n4 to fix the flow of time. They stop Kino from happening, "five", CotD, ect. But Richtofen can still do it. He can still cause the WaW outbreak. From there, that "voice" (or the new 4 or something) gets to Tank, Nikolai, and Takeo and tells them to avert this trag…

Hey I just wanted to bring my new theory here to the forums just to get the zombies community thinking. In Die Rise, above the elevator in the spawn room, there is some sort of chinese brail. Decoded, the chinese brail means the following: "From the shadow of the moon." Now to my theory. As of right now, the original characters are on Moon.(so we think) "From the Shadow of the Moon" is actually a book based in the 1960's. That is around the time of our original characters. The book is about a couple of astronauts returning from the moon and telling their story. See the connection? I think the original characters (still on moon) will return in future DLC. Remember, Treyarc…

I've heard a lot of theories about what became of our original crew, so here's mine. One of the achievements for the large Easter Egg in Moon was named "Cryogenic Slumber Party", so I believe that somewhere unseen on Griffin Station, Tank, Nikolai, Takeo and Sam found some Cryogenic Stasis Chambers and jumped in them in an attempt to escape the never ending fight against the Z's. If this happened, if and when we encounter them in the new time period (TranZit, Die Rise,) which is believed to be at least a couple of decades after moon, they would not have aged at all. In summary, I believe that we will encounter our original heroes, who will be the same age t…

Thanks to Pinnaz and InfestLithium for kind of inspiring this post in a comment I cannot seem to find. My theory is that there is a third entity, like Maxis and Rictofen. Like Pinnaz said about colour influences, Orange is Samantha, Blue and Rictofen and so on, but what is purple? The colour of the mystery box or more importantly, the colour of the beam that shot the new survivors across the earth the the GLF. Some have said that this could be the voice in Stulinger's head, but some have also said that is just distorted Richtofen and it goes away when the power is on, Samantha was able to be in human form when she was an entity, since she was crying in a room in…

Welcome to my new write-up, here i'll be talking about 2 topics, I'll start with Gersch and continue from there! Where in the World is Carmen Sandiego Gersch? If you'd like hop in my time machine, we're going back to blackops 1, specifically, Ascension. If you're familiar with Ascension you'd possibly know about the easter egg, and how it adds to the story, well it didn't. You'd go around this place that barely adds to the story to free Gersch, he thanks you for freeing him from the Gersch device and Samantha isn't too happy about it, she screams and whispers "Come find me.". But heres the issue, where is Gersch? What did he add the the story? And conclusively, …

I'd like to get opinions for this. This is a theory. I have no facts for this, I'd just like opinions, or someone to give me facts that contradict this theory. I believe the old characters were reincarnated. As the new 4. Tank-Misty, Nikolai-Marlton, Takeo-Russman, Richtofen-Samuel. Please give opinions on what you think! Please!

i have a theory that i want to test out, give some feedback i believe that maxis needs the tower of babble to stop richtofen but also to recreate himself. there is quote that maxis states near the start of the TranZit EE. Maxis Quote: "... i cannot effect physical change, yet...". maybe maxis needs the tower to change his physical state. maxis talks of a trichotomus system, i looked up the definition of trichotomy and found a definition stating 'the division of a human being in to three parts; body, soul and spirit. Proof: http://m.dictionary.com/d/?q=trichotomy maybe maxis needs the tower to complete physical change. but many will say; maxis said 'the tri…

Hey everyone, over the past week I've been looking at a lot of threads from the zombies story forum and saw a lot of people talk about takeo getting his memory back and what he said on moon about destroying group 935 so i have a question. will takeo be the one to lead the group through fixing everything? he's been knowing what was going on since ascension i believe so he has to been understanding how richtofen has been teleporting them from place to place right? what do you guys think?

So the storyline of zombies is a mix of many different conspiracies. I was watching an episode of conspiracy theory about "brain invaders" and it talks about a tower is used to project voices into peoples minds. So is the tower supposed to be the transmitter for richtofen's and whoever else is in Stuhlingers head? It could be possible, Richtofen could be trying to get into all the characters heads, it could be the reason why Marelton isn't in the trailer, like in the tranZit trailer Stuhlinger was hidden, maybe Richtofen transefered to Marelton and now knows even more than he did before. If anyone wants to watch the episode and see what you think about it heres a link htt…

In ascension, Richtofen speaks of voices that he hears and look at him now.. Is Stu going to be the next Richtofen at the end of this Saga? And are the "moans" (that we hear as Stu) coming from Sam calling out? I mean we hear on the opening screan on Die Rise of a Demonic Voice that nobody knows crap about. omg, Mind blown!

Just come up with a new theory: As you may know, the new easter egg song was released and again features Clark, not Elena. My theory is that maybe Clark will be the singer for this group of survivors and Elena for the original crew. This makes sense as on Black Ops 1 and World At War only the maps with the original 4 (and Veruckt, which does have Dempsey) Elena siegman only has songs on the map with them in. What are your thoughts guys?

Stumbled upon this video not too long ago and it was really intriguing. I understood most of the storyline before hand but this video displays it nicely and also mentioned some things i've never realized! I recommend you to check it out if you have not seen it already! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eccvQvPApHY ALL credits to RADAUSTINS27, this is his video, not mine.

I just realized that that group 935 (except Richthofen) must be dead or at leased very old and worn out. You see spending lots of time in space your bones start to deteriorate and your muscles become weaker. They spent decades in space, from maxis quotes saying "I have spent decades trying find survivors". But of course the exact time is unknown to us that group 935 spent on the moon, and the amount of element 115 poisoning that have endured...

As I have seen through many forums, videos on youtube and discussions with friends, there are alot of people debating whether the original 4 are dead or alive, I too am a part of this debate, and I believe they are alive, but anyway, this isn't the point. The point of this post is to list the many ways we could encounter the original 4. A New DLC One way we could encounter the original 4, (I'm not sure if I should call them that, since instead of Richtofen we have Samantha.) is through a call of the dead like DLC, with this continuing after moon, either straight after the Moon easter egg where they leave Area 51 and continue their journey, or years later, where the…

I'm not exactly sure if this has been touched on before or not, but i have a theory on why Samuel is the only one who can hear Richtofen, and why in the radio messages, only certain people can hear him. I think it's because of the flesh. It's been hinted at multiple times that Samuel eats the meat from the zombies, and in one of the radio messages, the man says "I'll do it for you, and the flesh" To summarize, Those who consume the flesh may become mentally unstable, and only the crazy ones can hear Richtofen. That's the way i see it at least, it might not be the case, but it seems like a viable theory. Sorry if this seems a bit vague, but I'm just not used…

It's so clear now i can't believe i never noticed it before all the events after Richtofens Grand Scheme are happening inside his head and richtofen entering the chamber think about it the songs the nuketown zombies easter egg it's a mix between samantha and richtofens mind this tranzit when richtofen took control samantha still has an imprint of her mind in the pyramid so they merged into this fake world i'll explain step by step how i came to think up this hypothesis. Nuketown Zombies- is him struggling to fight for control of the zombies eventually he wins loses that's why the zombies eye's change color Richthofen takes control of them psychologically otherwi…

Hey guys, I'm fairly new to the forum. Well, I actually just made this account to share my theory in all of this. I haven't been a die-hard Zombies story-line fan for long, but have gotten more and more interested in it recently and with the mysteries of TranZit and NukeTown Zombies, it's been making me wonder. So my theory is that there IS an Easter egg on NukeTown Zombies (Which is a popular idea.) The Easter Egg releases Marlton from the bunker, but not out to the NukeTown map, it actually releases him underground towards possibly Green Run/TranZit? You can hear the bus horn from TranZit on NukeTown Zombies because TranZit's locations are across the lake/land …

Welcome to my breif Introduction of the "New Crew" in Zombies. This is still very much unfinished and ANYTHING you can add will help build our understanding of the story line associated with them. MARLTON - A tall, slender man with glasses and a "poindexter" voice. This character has been fleshed out to a degree by others but to recap and summarize; He is featured in NUKETOWN hiding in a bunker where we hear various quotes similar to the ones said in TRANZIT. He has definate military ties most likely the CIA or a compartment of it. He is a Scholar and an Electrical Engineer. Marlton can easily be considered the "BRAINS" of the operation. RUSTY - Is an aged war …

Hi my name is Andrew Augustson and I am a huge zombie fan and i love the story. One thing that has been on my mind is the time setting of the story now. Iv been doing a lot of research recently and I would like some input. So to my understanding Der Riese is in 1945, then the original characters time travel to kino der toten in 1968. After this we have Five and Ascension happening at the same time but yet iv herd people say that they are around a year apart but i know they have to be on the same day, so my question is when is that day? Next they time travel to call of the dead which we know is in the present time and to my research was on March 17th 2012. After that…

Any competent theorist on this site is familiar with the concept of Hollow Earth in the zombies story. Brooks Agnew, however, sees this not as just myth but fact. Anything I can possibly say is already said in the (rather lengthy) video, but what is said is fascinating. I hope you all enjoy!

Hullo. TEDD has blue eyes, and what do we all now that have blue eyes? Hmmmm, ZOMBIES! So I think maybe that TEDD could be powered by Element 115 like the zombies, but who built TEDD? well the bus company, so maybe the company has ties with group 935 (researching element 115 maybe the bus company transported materials and they decided to ae TEEDD with 115? Thanks! :mrgreen:
