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.

Please remember to post any videos related to game play in Media center or strategy section if it deals with strategy. Be sure to add description of what your video is about or thread will be deleted. If you don't know where to post a video just email me or any staff member. Remember to read the Code of conduct. Advertising and asking for Subs in threads will result in strict action including bans. Thanks and Happy slaying. P.S: I am going to temporarily sticky this topic because of high volume of threads containing videos.

Are we still moving over to there because I checked it recently, and all I can see is spam. You look on the activity feed and they've had a field day. If we are moving other there at some point in the future, a Mod best clean that up. Just thought I'd let you all know. And I've just looked at the forum itself, its in every topic. Depending on whether or not we are moving is there any point in it's existence. If not soon but later then all that spam needs to get removed as their is an awful lot.

[tab][/tab]As you all are well aware, TranZit is taking us for quite the trip (pun intended) and dragging out the feeling of mystery with the Easter Egg's completion using a myriad of beams of light, glowing orbs, and vague tweets. You'll also see around here on the forums people claiming to have solved the EE, people saying that hunting is stupid, and some people making obviously erroneous guesses on the next step. I ask of you all to please behave in a friendly and polite manner to any and all users, whether you think they are just trolling or not. Be the better person. Send a PM to a staff member or report their posts, but do not outright start hurling foul words, or b…

In the intermediate period until the sections are fixed, I have moved all the threads that are generally applicable to the original Black Ops to the Black Ops section of the forum. If you are looking for them, please go here: viewforum.php?f=16 Thank you for being so understanding of the chaos around these parts. I want this site to be as beautiful as it was a year ago at this time. Keep working and never give up. If you need me to move anything, please let me know, or just talk to another active staff member. Ehj~

Alright CoDz, this is your time to shine. An unknown man named 'MrX' has messaged us with some sort of weird information: Note; he's only messaged a few people... Myself, the Dwellers, and the Mods. We need help cracking this. We already know what the German means translated, it's an old finding from Der Riese that says "The bees are from ludwig village disappeared.", but we have no idea what the relevance of the capitalization means, or the rest of the message for that matter. PLEASE post any theories or ideas that you may have regarding this, as it is top priority. By the way, if you DON'T believe me... you can check the Dweller list t…

As the title says, it is time for me to retire from the staff here at Codz. I just don't have the time to look after the site like I should be doing. I know this will come as a shock to some, but don't worry I will not be gone from CoDz. As a normal member I will be more able to focus on what I did best, which was making interesting posts & threads for the greater community. Plus I really want to finish NZC some time this year. Maybe in the future when my life gets less busy, I will return to a mod position within the ranks of Codz. Best regards Alpha.

We are going to be making some big changes to CoDz in the near future, but before we do anything we like to take the feedback of the community into the projects we develop, so we've made a questionnaire that we would like you to fill out, you don't have to if you don't want to. All results will be confidential and will only be shared between staff privately, you can talk to others about your choices if you wish. We won't know who responded, so everything is 100% anonymous, unless you choose for it to not be. You can fill out the questionnaire here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/vie ...

As you know the site had some downtime recently, which caused everyone's avatars to vanish. To get them back you must re-upload them to the site, please do so if you can, it would make everything look so much nicer. :lol:

Hey everyone, if you've tried to access the forum lately, you'll know that the site has been under construction. Last night, as Covert was preparing to leave the site completely to us, we were updating the site, moving files around, etc, to make it run as smoothly as possible, especially in preparation for the influx of new users and content. Unfortunately, due to a slight miscommunication on our part, a file was misplaced in the wrong folder and ended up crashing the entire site. We immediately realized our mistake, and knew it should be an easy fix. All we had to do was restore the back up file from our host. Unfortunately, the backup file was updated just after th…

Hey everyone. I figured I would let you all know about my upcoming absence. Some of you will have already known about this because I announced it a while ago, but I might as well explain it again. For roughly the next 2 years I will be serving a religious mission for my church. I will be serving in the Everett Washington mission beginning this next month. I leave to enter the MTC, or the Missionary Training Center, next Tuesday July 31st. Even though I don't leave till next Tuesday, I will be following mission rules beginning this upcoming Sunday night. What that means is that after Sunday night I will no longer be able to get on the computer or my phone, play games,…

Hey guys, Tac here with an overview of the staff meeting we had this morning! On this date, 7/14/12, we discussed a TON of things about the community and because of this, I decided it would be best for me to share it all with you! 1. GIF’s in Signatures and Avatars are going to be case-by-case based on the staff member. - We've got plenty members that are using image files known as GIF's, or moving images so to speak. With the new signature rules of only 5 lines and the fact that the GIF's slow down our site, they are generally frowned upon in signatures but may stay as long as they are not intrusive. They will be allowed to stay, virtually un-frowned upon, in avat…

My Co-op Score Recently I came across a group on steam that has Round number average next to their name. I liked the idea and would like to implement some what similar system on our site. I posted this under Reapers and I thought it would be a good addition to the site for anyone who shows their high rounds in their signature can simply replace with one line. So, basically you need to display your round number average in your signature instead of displaying all rounds. Remember to post your rounds here first before you add that to your signature line. Hope you guys like the :idea: I think this should help people posting unnecessary clutter (about their hig…
