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.

I am pleased to announce that AlphaSnake has been made a CoDz moderator. His continued support and dedication to CoDz and the zombie game mode has been steadfast and he deserves to be recognized for his efforts. He has been instrumental on CoDz since the release of Black Ops. His theories, research and overall presence here on CoDz has been an incredible benefactor for me and in turn, you all. So again, I just want to thank you Alpha for all your hard work, and you deserve this position my friend. Congrats! [brains]

Alright, well if you didn't already know I extended the contest, you can check out the official global announcement for the details. I have also added a new group called....... "survivors" This group consists of members who have been on the new CoDz site for over a year and are still active. If I haven't already added you just PM me or post in here. Also I expect that as the months go on and more members qualify, be sure to keep sending me PM's as I will not be checking it everyday and adding people, so if you want to be in the group you have to notify me. Also I conjured up some nifty new fonts on the site for the logo on forum and homepage, as well as …

As the title suggests I wanted to know if you as members think that we should have a couple new threads. One for people, whether noobs or long time members, can just speculate about zombies. It can be following the story line or not. Someone who may not know the storyline can just post some of there info in this place. The second new thread would be for the strict storyline followers! If you dont know the story like the back of your hand you shouldnt post there. I think it may alleviate some of the confusion on the other threads where poeple may be very strict about the story line while others are looking and just wanting to share some things that they lik…

Anybody here thinking of going to the Eurogamer Expo in London this year? Its on late september. http://www.eurogamer.net/expo/ Since we launched our website, (link in my signature), we have grown in terms of size, received new writers and become eligible for Press Passes to the Eurogamer Expo meaning we will get exclusive access to certain areas within, be able to access earlier than the public and speak to developers of games which will do wonders for our site. Public can also buy tickets for a little over £8. Just to confirm who will be attending as press, is myself, MrRoflWaffles, Mikeh12 and one of our new writers, Ben Stoker. Mikeh and Ben will b…

So KontrolFreek sent me a pair of Rcade Freeks the other day. I was pretty excited as they looked cool. So If you have ever played Dead Ops Arcade before you will know that the control are quite simple with the movement and firing done with the joysticks. Instead of using FPSfreeks for DOA, I play with the normal joysticks and my DOA game is pretty good. However my thumb gets really sore from swinging the joystick around in all directions for long periods of time, which is what happens in DOA. So I put the Rcade Freeks on my joysticks and played some DOA. It was crazy! First response was how comfortable it was to roll the joysticks around. It was very smooth, and made pla…

Hi.. i'll just get straight to it. CoDz needs a new server provider. The current one takes nearly a minute to load a new page of a thread. I've never had to work with high-bandwith sites before, and I havent used this provider, but i definatly think this provider is worth checking out: http://www.ipage.com/web-hosting Any discussion?

I used to go onto this forum when the previous website existed, but once it was gone i just left and stayed on the callofduty.com forums... So there may be a few intellectuals on that website that offer their opinions and semi-good ideas, but on here, i get real, legitimate answers with actual reasoning and thought behind them, it's so refreshing! So I just wanted to say thanks for being there Codz Community Keep up the good work!

Should CoDz be a forum where quests can't view anything, and you have to be a member to see and post? When I first made CoDz, on that free forum that is how I had it. Only members could view content. What are your thoughts and opinions on this matter? Ready..... Go!

If you gameshare, don't post it on this forum. Stop asking for someone to gameshare for you, we do not condone that. Let me make gamesharing clear, what you are doing is cheating Treyarch/Infinity Ward or who ever it is that should be getting the money for making the maps. If people stopped gamesharing, then price would probably go down for it as they would be selling as much as they should have. The ability to download on different ps3's from the same account is just that, for that account and that account only, not supposed to be for everyone to download. Gamesharing is basically the same thing as downloading free music, that's illegal for a reason isn't it? Even t…

Hi guys, I have some bad news. Unfortunately due to hosting space restrictions and such, we are unable to provide you with the latest episode (4) of the Chaos Drop Zone Podcast. The same will go for episode 5 as well as we are recording soon and won't be up till early April, so please excuse our lateness. (Especially with the tease of a 2hour long uber funny episode we tweeted). We're hoping to get Carbon to help host the shows so we have more space but we'll see how it goes. Hope you enjoy the shows and continue to listen. Wolfy

So as a new member of these forums I would like to say a few things. There are some hard working people on this site and I am really grateful for everything they have done on here and the cool zombies info they provide. And in general the people here are much more intelligent and mature that most other places like CoD forums. However, I have been nothing but flamed by older / high posting members of this community when they have zero idea of what they are talking about. I'm not saying I know more than ANYONE about zombies but I do a LOT of research and trail and error doing my own experiments and I damn sure look around and make sure I really believe what I'm posting …

I have joined your ranks. Broke down and picked up the discounted Black Ops off steam, only seemed right with a handful of first strike PC tokens in my hands ya so anyway I have it on PC and would love to play with you guys, not sure how it all works, the only time I have used steam was for beta testing games.

Thank you carbon for making CoDz. I was just reading through some of the CoD HQ Forums, and that is pretty much the pinnacle of arguing 12 year olds. At least there is a forum where people actually get along, don't flame and troll repeatedly, and know each other and have some form of a friendship between each other. In comparison to the CoD HQ, we are 20x more productive in finding new things out, as well as not trolling, spamming, flaming etc. We have more and more groups being made every day, more zombie clans and partners to be found, really, CoDz is just an amazing website period. Thank you Carbon, for making such an amazing website, and I know I speak for the majorit…
