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.

Consider this an important announcement. From now on, any members arguing, harassing, spamming, or other violations of CoDz's Code Of Conduct will be banned from chat for 1 week. If you are not familiar with the CoC, you can read it here, although you should ALL have read it already. viewtopic.php?f=6&t=3 This has become an epidemic and I cannot police the chat 24/7. From now on if I witness any of the above, or am made privy to such infractions by other members, you will be banned from the chat for 7 days. Failure to heed this ban will result in further consequences. If this continues to be a problem I will be forced to remove the chat feature fr…

Free T-shirts have arrived from GRFXP. XyB-lm35zvM GRFXP Store Link. The two wunderweapon T-shirts will be used in a future CoDz competition. The Zombie Train one belongs to SGC Barbarian. I also ordered a Zombie Train one for myself, I must say they look the part. Very professional done. I would highly recommend getting one of these from GRFXP, you will not be disappointed with them. He also included a free strip of Perk Icon stickers which are also fantastic. Customs also snatched the package & held it to ransom, which GRFXP graciously took care of, which makes him awesome in my book. Thank you GRF…

So, some will know of the update that we have been planning behind the scenes and some will have had early bird access to test some features and functions (thank you, you know who you are). However, we wanted to share with you some more details about the update, whats happening and when etc. Essentially, we are updating everything - the entire site is receiving an overhaul. As it stands the forum is the main thing that people see when they access the site, you then have the menu which you can then browse the site and the frontpage. We feel that what we actually need (and we can change this at any stage with a click of a button) is a main page (a landing page). …

Hall of Fame Class of 2019 Greetings everyone. Boomy, being the bright and fast thinking meme lord of CoDz, decided recently that it was time to award some new folks with the thunderous (hint hint) colour of the Hall of Fame from CoDz. So after days and nights of thinking and battles til death we first and foremost decided to give our friends @DeathBringerZen and @GRILL the honour not only for their great contributions as staff members, but also because they always were a big part of this cosy little community. I can not express enough gratitude towards both of you. Without the Grillmeister, I'd probably would not be on this site for longer than that o…

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…

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…

As the days tick down to November 9th and we await news on Treyarch's co-op mode, here at CoDz we want to make sure we are ready for whatever comes our way. I want to know what YOU, the members would like out of CoDz for the future. So please post your ideas here. We recently added an awesome intro for http://callofdutyzombies.com , as well as our newly zombified forum theme. These were two things we have been working on for awhile now, and it is GREAT to have the finished and ready for you all. Now we are looking forward to starting some more projects to improve CoDz.

For a long time now, a call for a new Zombies wiki has been demanding and desired. The current ones available on the Internet are not exactly trustworthy, albeit containing massive amounts of information. But now, CoDz has their own Wiki system being opened up to the entire Community and a fresh start. http://www.callofdutyzombies.com/wiki/index.php?title=Main_Page The wiki runs off an age-old system found on sites like Wikipedia. Since this system is new to our community, that means many, many, many pages have not been created, just waiting to be explored by you - the creator! Because this is a fresh wiki for us…

With the addition of several new and wonderful features on the site, we’re proud to have made CoDz a more user-friendly community that thrives off the love for everything Zombies. These awesome applications, however, were not exactly easy to implement - including the upgrading of our server. Unfortunately, this has led to CoDz seeing financial troubles quite recently. For as long as we have provided a free fan experience to all the slayers out there, we have barely scraped by off ad revenue and, most importantly, donations from players like you and I. In order to keep the universe of Zombies steady, we are now providing 115 Premium Donor ranks. Thi…

Alright, question time. If I were to have a company make some Zombie themed wristbands, would you guys be interested in buying them? They would be a red color with "BRAAAAIINS" debossed on the front, and "Zombie Killer In All Of Us" debossed on the back. They would cost a $1.50 each, but they would be pretty cool, in my opinion. Also, if you guys have other ideas for possible wristbands, let me know here.

Hello CoDz folk! The day has been full of excitement and anticipation with our official Black Ops 3 Zombies reveal, however with the good news, as so often happens in life, must also come the bad. Today marks the end of an era for CoDz Forum, as our longest standing Moderator, Ehjookayted aka eyecntspel, or as some may know him Paolo, has retired from the CoDz Staffing team. I hope you will all join me in wishing Paolo the very best for the future of his gaming career, wherever it may take him. All jokes aside, Paolo has been an integral part of CoDz Staff for an incredible amount of time, joining the team in January 2012, a mere five months after joining the site…

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…
