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, lend me your ear... er... eyes! We, the staff of CODZ, feel it's high time to induct some new members into the Hall of Fame. There has been a lot of recent talk surrounding usertitles, and it's abundantly clear that we need more Legends/Hall of Famers around the forum. We've wanted to do this for some time, but have waited until it felt right. Now - it being 2015, the Treyarch hype cycle is upon us. It's an exciting year, and we're going to start it off by honoring only but a fraction of our fantastic community. Without further ado, I'd like to congratulate @PINNAZ @Tac @MixMasterNut and @Matuzz The staff of CODZ will be making a threa…

Let's pay pay tribute to those masters of storyline, crackers of code, designers of strat and nominate the next USER OF THE MONTTHHHHHHHH! Basic Qualifications: Any nomination, will require a brief explanation, and example links of posts that show the qualities necessary for a User of the Month. A user may not nominate themselves or anyone sharing the same IP address. This is to avoid cheating. You need at lea…

Hi Guys, It seems that the idea for a Topic of the Week has been received in a mostly positive fashion, so I would like to get into the nitty gritty of it. Should it be weekly or monthly? What are the minimum requirements for being eligible - Created in the last week or sufficient activity in the last week? What is classed as sufficient activity? Should it have a medal attached to it? Should we bother to do it at all? Thanks guys, Chopper.

I'm going to come out and say this from the off. This will be controversial - so we are going to ask you, the members what you think. However, I will explain what I proposed to the staff yesterday. Signatures will be disabled by default on the new site when launched. Please do not vote in the poll until you have read the topic, do not read the poll question and then vote. We need this decision to be an educated decision, rather voting purely based on the question. Once you have all picked yer jaws up off the floor, I'll explain why I have proposed this. When you are browsing the forum, and reading topics, signatures is the last thing that you want to be sc…

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]

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…

Hey guys, we will be fairly shortly bringing out a new user group. It will be used for the custom map makers who contribute to our site, and also happen to make custom maps. Just after some name suggestions - @Flammenwefer suggested 'Architects' which is pretty awesome in itself, just seeing what else might be out there. Chopper

This site is growing everyday! As we near the release of Black Ops this site will continue to grow, and especially after the release. I plan to make this the #1 go-to site for everything Black Ops zombies. I just wanted to share some visitor stats with you since the new CoDz site went live. These numbers are based off the visitor counter on the homepage.

Dear CoDz, As some of you may already know, I got a job working at Treyarch. I start in February. Due to my new "awesome" job I won't be able to be active on social media outlets like Facebook, Twitter, or this site. Sure I can post about boring details in my life, but I really can't be active on the site, due to NDA's and what have you. So in my absence Lissa and CovertGunman will be running things for me. If you ever need anything, you can always reach me on Twitter > @carbonfibah < I will save you the long winded story of the beginnings of the site and how far we have come. I couldn't have made CoDz the success that it is today with the he…

I am started up a black ops section on the homepage. This is a chance for some of you members who are not in a group to join one. What is required is for you to pick a section and then do a write up for it. That could be a list, images, paragraphs of text, cited pages, etc... pretty much everything we need to know. KEY: : Means someone has submitted content and the article/page is being created. Anyone can submit. [posted] : Means some content has been posted, but is not complete. Anyone can contribute. {completed} : Means the article has been completed. Anyone can suggest additions/changes. *requested* : Means someone has requested this topic. Anyone c…

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…

So one of our lovely survivors, yellow-card8 is suggesting we celebrate 115 day with some awesome zombie slaying action. I don't know if I'll be able to be on that day, but I love his idea and think that we should organize something. As a new PS3 Ambassador, I can't think of a better way to start off! So, let me know if you're interested and I'll see if we can coordinate something. Also, way2g00's zombie tournament starts up this weekend as well. Here's the tournament info (PS3 only)- viewtopic.php?f=13&t=18957 yellow-card8's original idea for 115 day- viewtopic.php?f=53&t=18961

Hi Guys, For those who love looking at posts on your smart phones, CODZ is now active on tapatalk. Please see here for more information - http://www.tapatalk.com/index.php The application is $1.99 - I promise you that if you regularly use this site on a smartphone this will be money well spent. I've used this application on a few other forums and it's mighty powerful. The text fills the screen nicely, now more pinching and zooming around. It is obviously slightly limited but you can respond to pretty much any post with it, in a nice and easy way. Check it out please guys and give us some feedback Chopper

Hey All, OK. So the world records database was causing a little bit of misunderstanding. The staff have been having a chat for the past few days and we have decided that the world records database is not proceeding in it's current format. We will be going ahead instead with a CoDz Leaderboard, this will only be available to CoDz members, you need to have registered to be able to submit anything to it. It will not be accessible publicly, so this means guests or validating members. It won't even be available to the "New Members" usergroup (at least I think this might be the best way). Without going into the details of what was discussed and why it isn't happenin…

I know you have heard this before, but please donate to Codz! Even little money would help. It would benefit Carbon tons! I'm sure we have young members, like myself, who can't give money like that, but we also have a handful of older users who could at least donate a few. Thank you for reading!
