Talk:Loyalty Program/@comment-1981406-20101008183941/@comment-173.68.120.149-20101008214451

The problem is Zynga has throwen a mega punch in the face to the free/poor players... They have gotten so comfortable or should I say the money has gone to there head that they forgot about the people who have helped them make mafia wars foundation. This program should have been totally based on real loyalty especially after the slot machine stunt creating about 8 skill point monsters a day and feeding on compulsive gamblers. Loyalty program was a good idea but should have related to players that have played 6 months + etc (No money at all involved) Or they should have used a Totally different name. They have made it clear the free/poor crowd don't stand a chance or welcome anymore and hence stand to loose a huge player base or future base by being so very blunt they want your money. Yes, an economical structure is ok in any game but they should learn this aggressive route is short lived, even though profitable. There will be many future lawsuits alone from there reckless practices such as there slot machine which relates to real cash. Just waiting for the gambling federation to slap them with fines. This will eventually make it to the news and talk shows and be debated on there practices of lure and bait for cash. I currently know of one friend in gamblers anonymous and there having board meeting to decide if playing mafia wars will be considered gambling which is 100% with that slot machine.
