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.

First of all: Carbon, If you are reading this, you should stop. This concerns a surprise for your birthday. So seriously. Stop. Now. Quit trying. Alright. So. Continuing on. What could we possibly do to make Carbon feel "special" for his monday birthday? I mean, it's not like he really needs brains (in one sense ^^). And other than donating to the site, what else could we do? That would be the biggest help, though we all know that many of us are broke teenagers that can barely survive our own jobs. So, I am open for ideas. Shoot me a message on here, twitter, or psn, and I will try to put something together. Afterall, we do owe him q…

So as a new member of these forums I would like to say a few things. There are some hard working people on this site and I am really grateful for everything they have done on here and the cool zombies info they provide. And in general the people here are much more intelligent and mature that most other places like CoD forums. However, I have been nothing but flamed by older / high posting members of this community when they have zero idea of what they are talking about. I'm not saying I know more than ANYONE about zombies but I do a LOT of research and trail and error doing my own experiments and I damn sure look around and make sure I really believe what I'm posting …

As the title suggests I wanted to know if you as members think that we should have a couple new threads. One for people, whether noobs or long time members, can just speculate about zombies. It can be following the story line or not. Someone who may not know the storyline can just post some of there info in this place. The second new thread would be for the strict storyline followers! If you dont know the story like the back of your hand you shouldnt post there. I think it may alleviate some of the confusion on the other threads where poeple may be very strict about the story line while others are looking and just wanting to share some things that they lik…

I am looking for trustworthy, smart, and dedicated CoDz members who can take directions and at the same time work on their own. I am basically looking for someone, or multiple people to help with.... CoDz Twitter CoDz Youtube The CoDz youtube side of things is a little more relaxed with freedom, where as the Twitter aspect will be more controlled. If you have any interest in either of these, please post which you are interested in (one or the other) If I think you are qualified, I shall PM you and we can go from there. Possibly a new CoDz forum group will be created for said social media members.

As you will see, we have had a little clean up and restructured the forum a little. We have also created a new general gaming discussion area. It's not perfect by any means, although it may look as though at more main forum sections exists, it's pretty much the same in overall length but easier to find each catergory and easier to see what has been posted to and if new topics/replies exist. It's not perfect and we don't profess it to be perfect but it certainly is more organised than it was.

I need a hand with some scripting. I am going to explain why you have all been seeing so many errors on CoDz. One issue is that there could be some scripts that are not closing properly or fast enough and connections to the database are being filled up quickly. The host only allow I think 15 connections or so per user per database.( that doesn't mean only 15 users on the forum at a time) Right now I have the forum and the chat on one database with only one user assigned to it. Now If I add more users to the database that means more connections available. So say I add 4 more users, I now have 60 connections available to that database. Now the errors are not all the ti…

This is just a disclaimer so everyone can know where I am at.... So as most of you know I now work at Treyarch, and because of that I had to relinquish my ownership of this site. I have passed on admin and financial responsibilities to Covert, Lissa and probably another person once Covert takes a break. So just so we are all clear, in terms of CoDz, I am simply the founder. The guy who built this site from the ground up and the creator of callofdutyzombies.com. I no longer run this site on a day to day basis. Ok, I just want to make sure that is clear to everyone. I wasn't expecting Lamia to confirm zombies so early in the year, however he has, so it is no longe…

Hey everyone. I figured I would let you all know about my upcoming absence. Some of you will have already known about this because I announced it a while ago, but I might as well explain it again. For roughly the next 2 years I will be serving a religious mission for my church. I will be serving in the Everett Washington mission beginning this next month. I leave to enter the MTC, or the Missionary Training Center, next Tuesday July 31st. Even though I don't leave till next Tuesday, I will be following mission rules beginning this upcoming Sunday night. What that means is that after Sunday night I will no longer be able to get on the computer or my phone, play games,…

Well, wow, what can I say - not a lot to be honest apart from niiiiiiiice Now, I'm not taken any credit for it, well, I might take the credit for adding the link and uploading the files etc but that's about as far as I go with it. Credit for this goes to Infestlithium and the team that put this together, an excellent addition to the callofdutyzombies.com site. So what is it, what is it for? Well basically speaking, it's a full website, given information on the maps, easy access to the easter egg information and so forth. It also advises on the UoTM on the main index page and it also has a news article from CoDz as well. This will be updated, it will give you n…

So, it launches in the UK in 2.5hrs, has launched in other countries already (I think with the timezones) and everyone is getting hyped about it. Not only is it a new CoD from Sledgehammer IT HAS ZOMBIES well, it has what I would call an infected mode within survival ala World War Z but they are still zombies, just not the game mode we are used too from Treyarch. Anyway, we have now made available the Advanced Warfare callofdutyzombies skin, if you wish to use this you can, simply select "advanced warfare skin from the change theme option. Here's a few screenshots for you all. Hope you all enjoy the skin and if you spot anything, let…

As comes another end of the year with a new one in sight, 2016 has been a wild trip for many of us within the zombies community. From our CoDz family to yours, we wish you all a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! To show how much we appreciate you all, we'd devised a special one-time medal, only available during the holidays until the end of 2016. Ztocking Ztuffer - Post in the Christmas thread during the end of 2016. We'll also throw in 115 Divinium, straight from Santa 'tofen himself! How wunderwa! In addition to this, we will be unraveling several new features onto the website. Some are gameplay-related, some obtaina…

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. Some things that we are thinking about, but have not quite got the ball rolling with incl…

There's been a lot of leaked Beta footage and other footage. I know it's awesome but please refrain from posting it on the forums. If someone wants to see it, please PM them. Same rules apply to the chat, try and avoid spoiling things for other members and make use of the handy Private Message system. Thanks. There is also a thread on this in General Discussion by carbonfibah (thanks Johnson). His is a little less specific but still the same general idea. The reason for this thread being, like carbon stated, that it's too much for the moderators to have to delete threads every 5-10 minutes because it's leaked footage or spoilers of Black Ops or other games. So …

Hey Guys, This is the inaugural Topic of the Week which will nominated by you guys, and decided by a committee. I changed it up a little and decided to run it from Sunday to Saturday, with nominations made on Sunday and then a decision made late on Sunday. This isn't the longest open period, but due to it being weekly it's difficult to pick the best time. In the future, if any user doesn't think they will be on the site when the nominations are open, they can email myself or any of the committee with their nomination anytime from the Friday before the nominations open on the Sunday, This could be changed if it doesn't suit, but for this one it's as is.

Please welcome @DeathBringerZen to the team, he is now moderating the custom zombies discussion and maps forums. At this stage DBZ is part of the team and solely responsible for the customs section, his user title remains the same and he remains in the same usergroup he is currently in. However, we will need to work out a way to show DBZ as a staff member for these sections, I'm sure you will all congratulate DBZ and wish him well. If you have any questions or need any assistance then DBZ will be the first point of contact for the customs section and then any member of staff. Congrats @DeathBringerZen, great to have you as a part of the team.

It's time to n-n-n-n-n-n-n-nominate your next May User of the Month! You know the ropes - think up of who has really been putting in that quality work this month, say why they deserve to be [America's Next Top Model] UotM, and wait til we open up the election booths! It's as simple as 1-2-q! 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 least 50 posts, and have been a member for at least a month in order for your nominations to be …
