Spamming porn images is quite common on the internet. We deal with it all the time on the Mafia Wars Loot Lady Fan Page. I'm sure you have seen an image or two before they were removed. Today some porn spammers were able to insert images into Mafia Wars. I've blurred out the bad parts but I think you can see what is going on. Yizua posted these images on the fan page asking what could be done. One of her friends had them plastered throughout his Mafia Wars account. This type of thing can and does happen. The reason I posted this is because I also received an email from someone explaining the same thing. Players should notify Zynga if something like this happens to their account.
We saw a problem similar but not as vulgar back in April when many players were reporting that the Concealable Camera image on the gift page was replaced with a girl in her underwear looking into a mirror (1). I was later told that this was in fact a security breach and they issue was resolved on Zynga's end.

Someone suggested a theory. If the news about zynga's employees being unhappy with zynga, and zynga's staff are just waiting to cash out is true, it could possible to assume that all the bugs and headaches are deliberate. Maybe staff wants to fuk up the game for zynga.

ReplyDeleteI didn't get those images in my game, I think only people who watch porn are infected with this worm :P
ReplyDeleteMaybe this would bring back more male players...
ReplyDeleteI'm a computer programmer and can tell you there is absolutely no way these bugs are deliberate. The only way a programmer would do something like that is if they were quitting, and with an IPO in the works there is no way anyone is quitting.
