Hey, Blake. Go fuck yourself!! Zynga Texas Hold 'Em Poker is crooked as hell. The game is full of players (a good many I've noticed are Asians) who do nothing but park their butts in a seat, memorize hands and go all in or bet huge, ridiculous amounts on unrealistic hands like- 2/3, 2/2, 6/3, 9/2... against Trip As, Ks, Qs, etc, and win. They do it cause they know what hands are coming.
Shame on Zynga for charging for chips. I don't know what's more ignorant-Zynga selling chips or that ppl actually spend REAL money to buy FAKE chips to play a rigged game.

No one gives a flying crap what your level is on Mafia Wars. Half the time it's not working properly either.

You wrote: [". The recent wave of negative press about Zynga - in a way - feels like an accomplishment. I realize that when society does not understand something, they will form speculations."] Are you retarded? Your entire post reads like some silly teenager put to an icky PR task.... that is...if you really do work for Zynga. What grown man says, "I was stoked" (?) I know bullshit when I read it. And you, Blake, be in it up to your lying eyebrows. What are you 17? The recent wave of negative press about Zynga comes from ppl who've been playing the games long enough to finally realize the entire network is crap, run by greedy turds with shitty customer service. Let me guess, you just happen to be trolling the Internet and found this site and decided to post you 'rah rah' speech. Perhaps this is your real job at Zynga. Spreading the crap. Like I said before... go fuck yourself.

SIDE NOTE: Please pass that last sentence on to EVERYONE at Zynga!

Love to collaborate with you. What kind of company supports other countries (their braggin about haiti help) when US citizens are starving; are in need of new schools. Someone and I plan to find a way to bring their head up out of sand. They are not what they represent themselves to be. Their support does not even know how to play; I get answers like could you be more specific; esp regarding horse power points. They had development problems after their expansion and did not tell players unless they asked and asked and asked that they had to be all Buff horses to get a point.
Lately they just roll back to clock over and over........ and don't admit it. I want this company to realize they are not liked, and their players are very unhappy!

I would like to collaborate with you to let people know what kind of company this really is.

Promoting things for Haitia, when in USA there are starving people; poor schools. Definitely lacking in social consciousness.

They reward some players and cheat out other players; particularly in Farmville. Now destroyed by their poor support and developers who left the game in "limbo" for 3 days..... over the holiday's.

Their latest addition to their "stable" of games Frontier is equally bad; it has people who quit daily. and no one can answer why you can't give people what they ask for. The constant "out of rewards" message. No one can tell you why this happens and how to avoid to help neighbors. Neighbors who just quit because of the frustration

I've been playing for over 3 years. Played and spent REAL money. Yet this weekend, they roll the clock back over and over again. Making it impossible to collect Horse Power Points depending on where you are in the cycle.
What's more, their support staff doesn't even know what a Horse Power Point is. I honestly believe they pay these people for the number of ticket's they repsond to; like any help desk even if it's "sorry, we're working on it"..... translation; we don't care and we'll let you know when we are good and ready.
This used to be a good game, but the developer's that they have hired/employed over the last 9 months have ruined the game. It constantly has problems. Every rollout is a problem and causes the "developer's to work on it".
Their latest fiasco Frontier is no better. It has the equally incompetent developer's and the stablity of the game is impossible. People quit daily because it's just to unstable. Their "support" trys, but are at the mercy of the poor development.
Farmville advertised a colored chic (not the Rhoade Island, a common chic), at the feed trough and will not admit that it just "disappeared". They charge incredible prices for these new chickens. Farmville answers when they feel like it. The message they send to their players is "we really don't care"........ we're big and we can treat you poorly and give some players what we want and others we will do what we want with. This has become one of the worst online games. I am recording the responses I get, the timing, and plan to write an article about this company. A disciminating; unfair; unorganized, poorly supported company

Zynga should be thrown off facebook and closed. all of their games are full of bugs which they refuse to correct.fronteirville is now unplayable. when they try to do an IPO, everyone should email CNBC with their complaints.by the time CNBC finishes reporting on it,Zynga won't be able to get 2 cents a share for their stock.

Maybe Zynga would be more customer oriented if someone circulated the email addresses of the venture capital firms financing them & then the VCs rec'd a deluge of customer complaints about Zynga's total lack of concern for what matters most- the end user.

If I had cash vested & saw the all of complaints, tactics, & behavior they engage in; I'd pull the plug. I bet if Zynga got a lil free press in the WSJ by bombarding an editor's email w/ complaints, they'd pull their head out.

I love the games, I dont even complain about it, but after I was spending some cash in yoville and farmville and now zynga blocked my account because of that.
I mean.. I have never said anything about hating zynga. I hate the facts that they didnt tell me... "girl you shouldnt buy too much from us or we will block you"... now they wont even accept payments from my paypal account :S ..... the only thing that works from me, as I am in Mexico, is buying truh amazon, and that is not available in all the games, like Mafia Wars or the new Treasure Isle. :( ... there are no game cards in Mexico. I feel Im being discriminated somehow.
Now what does Zynga needs to accept my payments back?... is there a way they can add amazon payments in all the games?.
thank you

Not a bed game to relive stres from working long hours and not even making enough to pay the bills and barely making enough to suporte the familly. Would be nice if more free chips were given to the plajers so tha they could play longer. What would even be beter if these chips had a value so that a person can only ones fell how it feels to have enogh money to be able to cover all the expenses and have a litle extra to take a nice vacation to onlly ones be stres free. I KNOW THIS IS A BIG DREAM AND MOST OF US DONT LIVE IN FAIRY TALES LIKE A LOT OF THAM DO.

iam from England and stated playing zynga poker months ago using there (gift) chips and did well until a friend gave me some of his chips that he had brought unknowing to me from a third party,then the fun started. firstly i was freezing all the time mid hand when i clearly had the winning hand, chips would disappear somtimes during the game and chips that i had won stayed on the table. After a few weeks a warning appeared about taking chips from a third party etc, after that my hands changed completly my friends watched in amazment as full houses,flushes even four of a kinds where been beaten by straights and three of a kind. If thay can do this to someone who did not bye chips from zynga what could thay do to paying clients, PS.i still play with daily lottery chips just to cheese them off and to have the lowest cards on the table constantly.

I have stopped playing Zynga. I worked the account to 26,000,000 only to start again at 0. Yes 0. I have since deleted the game from Facebook and my Iphone.

Zynga spends more time in R&D and less time (and money) in infastructure - ask anyone playing ANY Zynga game on Facebook in the last 90 days. 12/10/2009

Zynga got lucky that they were one of the first on the facebook and MS scene. They cashed in and rode the wave, but all it takes is one company to make a similar product/game and the trickle of people that are leaving will become a flood. No company can expect to treat their clients/customers like dirt and not be left in the dust.

This response is typical of what I would expect from anyone at Zynga.....Blake, I agree the post above, ur a tool.

Zynga apps have alot of potential, but their business model almost demands bad customer service because they need only the new and novice players to make money, Your cool job won't last long.....and I sincerely hope you have to delete tons of Zynga hate mail. That's what you get for being a tool and advertising urself.

Zynga's players are smart, savvy, and almost entirely united in wanting something better.....and it's only natural that the vacuum will be filled.

So keep making your department videos....TOOL

I agree with Deb 100% , all this stuff they say the game can do for ya is a load of horse shit, im tired of being led on beliving one thing them changing the rules to fit there needs and not giving a rats ass about my accounts or tec. problems. who cares if money was stolen from out of your accounts, who cares if ppl hacks in your accounts, who cares if ppl spam you, who cares if ppl rip u off in the game, who cares......I tell u all the trouble i have gone thru with this company trying to retreive moneys stolen from credit cards is insane. I had to contact the Attorney Generals Office and File a Written Complaint and the Practices of Zynga. I am so sick of knowing that all this time i was playing the game being a loyal citzen in Yoville, That someone else could be crooked and evil enough to steal from me, take my money and run. while Zynga has the nerve to say "Prove It". What the Hell, How Can u prove something was taken , when its Virtual and i'm left holding the bill for someone elses theft. NEVER AGIAN WILL I BUY FROM ANY ONLINE GAMES.

I don't know if your going to ever read this but I am not a hater. I actually really love most of the games. Its the bugs, the issues of things constantly going wrong as Iv'e stated in my other replys in these posts that I can't stand. Their is no excuse in not taking care of the serious issues in these games before adding Halloween features for crying out loud!! . Do you understand that? Farmville has this new mastory thing they started, but yet we have (all players pretty much) keep getting the pop up, "Out Of Sync", and its been going on for over a month.It's actually unplayable right now. Zynga knows of this because people are sending reports to them constantly but yet they just keep concentrating on adding crap to the game to mess it up even more. You can't explain your way out of that. I can honestly tell you Zynga better enjoy there rich pocket filling days because I know Facebook people are getting really sick of this. They will and alot have , delete Zynga apps. Im still trying to give them a chance but my patience are wearing thin.
As for poker, I know that they are having serious legal issues as well. Taking money for chips, its the same as real gambling on the net and its not allowed in alot of states and if you live in those states its against the law. I belive thats why they started the new gift giving chips. A loop hole. Zynga wants to get there money from players one way or the other. And most of the time the page you get when you first get on for the day to give your 1,000 chips as I get doesnt work so there loop hole isnt working lol Again a technical issue that doesnt get fixed.

They have 350 from my last research of employees they have. Maybe even with that little, for a game company with 50 mil a year coming in you would think they would hire more people to fix there issues.
