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.

Due to the new site the page can be streched sideways for a long way, so when people post there sigs, they go on sideways in 1 row, this is quite annoying if your just reading, say, a simple post on 'how far have you got on NDU?' which you have to scroll sideways just to see what they've put as someone's sig is stretching the page, such as (sorry for singling you out, there are worse ones) jtg's sig: the solution is simple, just tap the 'enter' key in your sig to make a new line: etc this stops it from spreading out the page, most of the older users and the moderators have worked this out for themselves, but a few of you don't do this and are…

First of all, I would like to start off by saying that you absolutely MUST read our Forum Code of Conduct. You can find the CoC here: viewtopic.php?f=6&t=3 Like stated in that thread, anyone caught violating these rules will receive some form of punishment whether it be a simple warning or a permanent ban. Now, as an add on to the rules that we already have in place, I am instigating a new rule stating that any topic we find that is a repeat topic to any other topic that can be found on the first page of the forums, WILL BE DELETED. The user who also posted that topic will receive a warning. Any time this happens multiple times and it's from the same user it…

I have been going through some of the files in the database and seeing which ones are slow. Seems to be some issues with the search function and a lot of queries deal with the search. So until I can fix the issue I am going to disable the search and see if there is any improvement. I apologize for any inconvenience. -carbon

If you've also been seeing all these spam threads make sure you report them. Imagine it like a bully picking on a nerd. If you tell on the bully and he gets kicked out the school how can he bully the nerd? Exactly! So don't just go past it saying oh well, help make this site SPAM FREE!

I saw the zombie-ies I blew their minds out with a gun. I didn't notice that the round had changed. A crowd of zombies ate my brains. I had Juggernog before. Nobody was really sure they had a monkey booooommmbbbb. I played Ascension today, oh boy. The Russian Zombies had just started to horde. A crowd of zombies came our way. You know what I had to cook.

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

[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…

Here are the Twitter names for the staff members of CoDz! These could come in handy if the site goes down and you need a way to contact us.

Along the top of the editor in quick reply or full editor are certain functions. I'll go through these and explain each one.

If you're reading this, then congratulations, you have no or few medals! Unfortunately, when we switched to the new forum software, we lost all of medal data. Although we have added the medals into the new database, everyone's medal collection has been reset. Some people have had some of their medals awarded, but not all of them. If you are missing medals, click here to go to the Medal Request Thread or send me a PM to re-request your medals. Just state that you're missing some medals and we'll award them to you. Again, sorry for the inconvenience. Hopefully, the new forum makes up for it. -Flammen

Hello everyone. Flammen here with the news that y'all didn't know you were getting. Firstly, we have officially added the "Architect" usergroup. The group is for the Custom Mapmakers that we have, as well as any quality designers in future. If you fit the criteria, send a staff member a message and we'll get things sorted out. Secondly, with the announcement of the Ascendance DLC pack for Advanced Warfare, we have added a group for the map, named "Infection." Please use this forum for discussion of this map. That's it for today. Have yourselves a great day and kill some Zombies.

You may have noticed a little tidying up that we have performed. It's nothing "Massive" but it is a reorginasation of the forum categories. @Flammenwerfer put a suggestion forward and he put a reorginisation together on the testsite a few weeks back, we've agreed that it needed to be reorginised. I was browsing the site yesterday on mobile and I understood clearer, how much clutter the main forum index actually had. It was painful scrolling the main index on mobile. Even the condensed version @Flammenwerfer put together was still to much clutter in my view and the teams view and needed further condensing. This …

@PINNAZ is currently hard at work getting the zombie library content from WaW transferred into a new dedicated "Zombie Library" database, Pinnaz is still in the Legends usergroup but has a secondary usergroup which allows him to add content and update the content within the database. As it stands it works in a similar fashion to how the user channels and videos works but in a slightly different manner, rather than everything being included within one topic and then replies, it will be within dedicated sections and will be easier to use and faster to load "it will need optimising but it it's a big change and easier to manage for Pinnaz.

this week, Microsoft revealed that it is working to support cross-platform and cross-network play on Xbox One - aka PS4 vs Xbox One multiplayer. So that means in the future, you could be playing online multiplayer titles with your PC and PS4 friends on your Xbox One. But, as expected, Microsoft won't be able to do this alone. "Most of you probably noticed that we made an announcement saying that we're now enabling cross-network play support. So if a developer wants to cross game networks, we'll support them on our side," explained Jason Roland, Head of the Xbox Advanced Technology Group. "Obviously we need support from the other supporting ne…
