The Continuous Play "Experiment"

Share:

A few days ago, I told you about a new warning popup that was causing havoc in the Mafia Wars community. It was designed to flag accounts that log actions for 20 or more continuous hours without a minimum of 4 hours in between accounts.  The problem was accounts that did not meet this criteria were getting flagged.

Cerulean Master admits on the post below that this was an experiment. Most can tell Zynga that their experiment was a fail.

This experiment has been turned off while we investigate other reasons players may be seeing it. CM __________________ Play Mafia Wars! RoC | Forum Search Function 101 | Troubleshooting 101: Loading and Connection Issues

I bet we never see this warning again. They can investigate all they want but most likely they won't be able to get it to do what it's suppose to do. We saw something like this with fighting over a year ago when Zynga decided they would add a Captcha check to fighting in hopes of stopping the fighting scripts. The problem then is the same problem they are having now. The ones most affected are the ones who play manually. We were told at the time that it would be adjusted but it never did return.
