Ruby Butler Rollback: Activated

Share:

The Ruby Butler Rollback that some were warned about via email is now in effect. Customer Support claimed that if you didn't get an email you had nothing to worry about. I never got an email but I did get rolled back and was greeted with the following popup.
I compared my numbers and found that 28 of my Ruby Butlers were removed from my inventory. I don't know what equation they used to determine how many Ruby Butlers to steal but I know I ruby mastered the event more than 10 times. I spent a lot of Reward Points on Turkey Protectors because of all the attacks I normally get. My Bronze Silver and Gold Butlers were not taken. Zynga deceived their players and let them buy Turkeys for 7 days after the event expired and now they are taking back the rewards yet keeping the Reward Points (1).

After
I wonder how many players will quit over this. How were players suppose to know that clicking too fast would gain them extra Butlers? It's a flaw in the code not the player. Innocent players who spend Reward Points have been affected and this is giving players another reason to quit playing.

  1. Come lets get real. If you brought turkeys and then clicked fast to get more, you exploiting a bug. If the ended up with the right plus 3 free ones. Only a fool will complain. I earnt 5 ruby, it took me a lot of work.

    To click reward to fast people are hoping to exploit a possible bug.

  3. I will use your favorite quote: they will become obsolete. I got one bronze Butler and that's enough for me since Butler is in my collection. And now I am going to buy the Rhinoreros.
