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.

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…

Just wanna update you (those who entered) where we are at with the contest. I am still waiting to hear back from a few devs on which are their 4 favorite, I assume that will wrap up this week. I plan on shipping the prizes hopefully by the end of the week, if not then the beginning of next. That is all I got for you now, I really want to get a wider opinion, so I am waiting a few more days to collect the dev's input. So bare with me while I conclude this contest. Don't forget we have another contest/event/fundraiser coming soon, so stay tuned for that! carbon out

Hello CoDz, it's been a minute. Hopefully the staff doesn't mind me selecting this forum for this, but given my brother and I recently dusted off CoD and played some zombies as of late, I figured I'd pop in here and see who's still kicking it while everyone eagerly awaits another Treyarch season for the first time in several years now. And thus, got me thinking and brought me to this and doing what I do best, doodle. The title says it all. On behalf of nearing the next 3arc and Zombies season, one of YOU will be selected to win your own requested CoDz related fan art commission gratis from yours truly.

We are now in the world of apps, we have at present our app live and available for download on the Apple App store. Now, I had a helluva fight with Apple trying to get the app name we wanted which was "CoDz Forum" or "callofdutyzombies.com" but due to trademark issues they wouldn't approve either of them. Even though CoDz is not trademarked or forum and callofdutyzombies.com is legally owned by us and we provided the proof that they required they refused due to association. So, the app is call "The Number One Zombies Community - for Call of Duty Zombies" as it was the name Apple basically said would be accepted (trust me, I've been figh…

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…

It is under used and it is not found on the main menu, but we would like for you all to get using it and post your personal bests - supported with evidence of course. You can find the link to this from the main menu under CoDz Apps, you can post scores for several categories and it has recently been updated with the Black ops III games. Come on, post your scores, you know you want too.

Apologies, for the downtime with the LFG - unfortunately a patch is not going to work for this issue and it needs a completely new version. We are working on it and should have something available next week. We know how frustrating it is and appreciate the patience.

It's had a little bit of a makeover. Basically we have put everything into a grid format and the main item is an image, we have under utlised the news section and I think we need to start using this more and more. Unfortunately, we simply don't have enough time in the working week/weekend to take care of this. So, I proposed something to the staff and I will propose it here as well. What I'm thinking is we look for 6 news editors, 2 from Asia/Australia, 2 from Europe and 2 from the USA. This allows us to keep news articles occurring throughout the day / week. It's not a staff position, it is a news editor position (stepping stone so to speak). No…

Hey Guys, The staff have been considering how to further increase the social aspect of this site, and an idea being discussed is regularly streamed events/playdates. Nothing is decided and we are looking for options. This plugin has been installed and this is an example of what it would look like on the site. An applet is also available which lists various different stream names and who is live currently. http://www.callofdutyzombies.com/forum/index.php?app=livestreams&module=streams§ion=stream&stream=3 We are looking for people who have the capability to stream and go into a somewhat rolling rota for official streams.

So, lack of chat, huh? I was bored awhile ago and I went into my dream land. *Woosh* What I imagined was CoDz Version of all of your favorite songs like "Just The Way You Are" was "Just The Gun I Got." Also, in my dreamland Justin Bieber was killed by a sniper rifle, but not to get too off-topic. Anyways, as the hosts we had Carbonfibah and Triixter doing the Night Shift. MrRoflWaffles, Stwrsbob, and some zomb-she I don't remember were doing the Early Bird Show. Also, we had our very own rapper, StopDrop, yeah bro, I got your message on XBOX Live. Also, I thought we should have a 24/7 Podcast, no real video footage, just moderators of CoDz making jokes. Pretty much all of…

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. Contacting a staff member via Twitter in some cases will yield a faster response than a Private Message, as well.

So, as a staff we've been wanting to get into the streaming scene over the last few months, but haven't really been able to execute as much as we'd like. Whether we've just all been busy or we haven't laid out a specific streaming schedule or we don't all have streaming capabilities, it's just kept us from actively pursuing it. As such, I figured I'd come to the community and ask some of the bigger questions. First of all, would you actually watch if we were to consistently stream gameplay? If so, how often would you like for us to stream? Who on the CoDz staff would you like to watch? What kind of games would you like to watch us play (obviously Black Ops 3 will be play…

Hey Guys how we all doing today? The staff here at CODZ have been looking at doing much more regular streaming, and coming as close to possible as streaming everyday. We think that this is a good way to go forward with the site, and expand our presence in the community further. This also leads into the new game, and provides a good base for us to discuss information and trailers as it/they are released. This will initially start more than likely with staff mainly, but we would love to play with as many users as we can. Initially, I can see us beginning with customs zombies. How many of you out there play customs, and would be interested in joining us in streams? …
