- Zynga goes overboard with the game Yoville today during the Summer 24 Hour Sale!
Before we get into today issues lets get some nice information on Zynga's creator!
Mark Pincus's House Mark Pincus is the creator of zynga and all its games.....Here is some information on him!
Quote exactly in Mark Pincus’s words-"I wanted to have a business model where the deeper the engagement I had from the user, the more money I would make." -Only wants the money??
Zynga opens a new office building in seattle which will be the HQ for Empires vs. Allies- June 1, 2011, Within 9 days of the game being up it got 10 million players....More money for Zynga!
Hurt relationship he was in? I was addicted to this online game, Rise of Nations, where you move your nation through civilizations, to the point that it really hurt a relationship I was in,"- that's lovely!
The company raised $10 million just last January, and Pincus claims he still has all of that money in the bank and is cash-flow positive with 80 employees. -Why don't you get some more employees because half of them can't write the right thing???
A book gave him the thought of starting zynga.-If he didn't read it there would be no Yoville!
Bought 100 million mansion in Los Altos Hills, Calif., Thursday, on March 31, 2011-There's where everyone's money goes! House seen above..
Zynga CEO and founder Mark Pincus filed a restraining order against a former stripper, who he says has been stalking him. -Thought it was kind of funny...
Mark Pincus sounds like a very nice person...Will he come save the day today? Golden Box issue, people getting free house or collectibles which is unfair, collectibles being rereleased....I don't think he will come help! He is too busy in his big house!

Zynga going overboard?

Jacking up the price!
Is a 3 yocash item worth 25k? We are here today to talk about the price inclination of what seems to be a terrible situation.
Is this alright? No this is not alright players are giving up the game due to this. There is dozens of players who claim to be dropping the game forever. Paying 5k-1 yocash is skyrocketing high and is not right. Players should be paying 2-3k-1 yocash ratio but they are not paying that today due to the Yoville Anniversary.
One player said "I'm getting closer and closer to bidding farewell to Yoville. This anniversary thing has brought me really close to the edge. I can understand not giving double coins, I can understand having some items Yocash (it is, after all, a business) but to call this an anniversary celebration is ridiculous. We are GIVING, not receiving. I haven't bought a new house or furnishings in ages. Its becoming a big yawn to me because of high prices and uninspired furnishings."
Is she right? Some players think that its all part of the game and we have to pay...But does this ratio and yocash frenzy change your opinion on this Price Jacking? Are you saying farewell to the town we call Yoville? We want your opinion so shoot us a comment! ~YVF Ryan
