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.

People of CODZ The staff of CoDZ have meetings to discuss important things. Below you will find accounts of such important things - complete with a description ("Issue"), a briefing on where are at with the issue ("Status"), and solid info on whether the changes are complete or incomplete ("Outcome") June 2014 Staff Meeting Issue Status Outcome Signature Size Reduction With the new forum look that @Hells Warrrior implemented, we had yet to define a limit to the signature size.

As we all know teams have become very popular on the site as of recently. But the staff feels it is drawing away from the real reason we all started coming to the site, the zombies! At this time we have come to a decision to lock all team topics. We know this will sadden many of you, however for our site to continue to grow and everyone to feel welcome, this at the moment is the best option. We are having a staff meeting this coming saturday to discuss this topic along with many others to help decide how to make this site become even more glorious than it already is! Do not be to sad about the closed topics because we already have many ideas how to keep your teams go…

CODZ is full of different people from all over the world; young and old, active and lurker, hardcore and casual. Often times along the way, communication can get misinterpreted, and inevitably misunderstandings will occur. Sometimes it's 1 on 1, sometimes it's 10 on 10, and sometimes it's 10 on 1. We, as human beings, are not perfect. We all have faults - and it's quite easy to forget that when dealing with a personal, sensitive, or passionate topic. It's also quite easy to get into the "pack mentality", to "gang up" on the odd man out; we are all guilty of this, including myself. Gossiping about other members, only using destructive criticism, putting someo…

No, not that kind of Divinium. Thanks to @Hells Warrrior getting the system up and running, CoDz now has a form of "currency" called Divinium ! This currency is all forum-based and uses post/topic content and contest winnings as a monetary base. Divinium on the forum can be used for the CoDz store - a new and upcoming mod we have coming up soon where users can buy REAL products such as Xbox/Playstation/Steam cards, Zombies merchandise, special user ranks that can't be obtained anywhere else, and more! How does Divinium work? Divinium is a basic points system; you get +1 Divinium for each post and topic that's created. When we h…

Currently there are 10 medals ready to launch, this does seem like a low amount at first, but more will be added over time as we receive more and more community feedback, we plan to launch 10 more medals in the form of prestige medals later on and 5 more unannounced medals.

Hey Folks, we are now just eight short days away from the one year anniversary of the last DLC drop for Black Ops II. It is absolutely incredible to have so many dedicated members who stuck with us through the off season, and it is truly our pleasure to have you all here at CoDz! We value the opinions of our members above all else and are always eager for feedback. On to the point of the topic… On August 22, 2014 we will be holding a staff meeting; before that meeting takes place we would like to open up the floor (thread) to all of you. Please leave any suggestions, changes, or just general talking points you would like us to discuss in the comments below. All ideas w…

Here's to more years, and hopefully, zombies to come! :D

We have been testing over the past week or so the effect of adverts on CoDz and how these are impacting on the visual aspect and how these impact on the performance and so forth. Some people are aware of these adverts being tested and thank you for assisting, we didn't want to introduce adverts but it's evident that we need to. So you will now see adverts on the main forum index at the top, on the right sidebar and at the bottom of the forum index. You will upon selecting a category see AD's top, bottom of the site and after the first topic. Selecting a topic will present you will an AD after the first post. Adblock will render them useless, I know. However, w…

CHECK THE THREAD BELOW FOR CRYPTIC EMAILS viewtopic.php?f=115&t=21922 With all the discussion of the images appearing on callofduty.com I thought it might be fun to reveal some cryptic images of the new forum layout every single day until May 1st (the reveal of black ops 2) and see if you guys can guess what they are/mean. PLEASE NOTE: The forum theme is still in its very early stages, I know some of you guys got to see it when we released it a little too early and that wasn't ready to release, we've changed it a lot since then but it still needs a lot of work done to it, please do not judge it just yet.

Below you will find the explanations of each option. The winning idea will be decided Monday sometime and at that point i will begin contacting people to get the project going.

Ok. lol Here we go, this is my reasoning behind the chat being taken down. A long time ago when CoDz was a free forum they offered a small embeddable chatbox. It was right there on the top of the forum. Now this was used a lot by everyone as we feverishly discussed zombies theories for world at war, so many brilliant theories and core concepts of zombies that we all know today were discussed, concocted and researched in that chatbox. Now CoDz was still relatively small at that point with a core group who used the chat properly and behaved. Now we outgrew that free site quickly and the new CoDz that we have today was born. Now my thinking was that we had a simple…

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…

This is the first time in probably over a year that I have posted about this subject. Anyway....

Brains, an excellent way to commend a fellow member for an excellent post, showing thanks for the hard work on a new topic/post that they have created. It's great that it's back and we understand the need and feeling of just wanting to supply brains for something you liked. Bottom line is, we think on some occasions brains are being supplied for the wrong reasons. Brains are not to be supplied for introductions, for things in off topic areas for example. However, brains are to be supplied for hard work, well thought out posts and well constructed posts. We will be keeping an eye on the reasons for brains being supplied, we will not tolerate misuse of the featu…
