ReplyDeleteJohn is a funny one :)
ReplyDeletecant belive some a$$hats fall for it lol
ReplyDeleteFeb 31st....zyngaretards
ReplyDeleteI think all Zynga employess involved with Mafia Wars should all get the 29th through the 31st off in recognition to reflect keeping it glitch free and increasing player satisfaction over the past year.
ReplyDeleteWhat a shame with all the things we have had to complete lately I could have done with three mafia wars free days ;-) lmao!
ReplyDeleteThe more I see comments and angry people who would even consider this a possibility, the more I'm wondering about the intelligence levels out there. Not just this...also the people who write to Z asking about assassin-a-nator. Or on the fb MWLL page asking to have you fix their game or why Demon isn't working. And demand compensation because they lost 6 hexshots that they couldn't have earned anyway.
ReplyDeleteThese are the same people who spend money and attack others non-stop because they were asked - by what they think is a beautiful truthful person - to hit what they claim are targets who played wrong.
Who gave honey boo boo an account?
.......love the humor John posted.
I am glad you all enjoyed it. I am still dumbfounded by all who dont know how to read a calendar and thought it was real. And yes someone I know went to Live Chat and got this.
ReplyDeletePlease wait for a site operator to respond.
You are now chatting with 'Silvia R.'.
Hi XXXX! How can I help?
XXXX: Hi Silvia
XXXX: hope you are well
Silvia R.: Hi XXXX! Thank you, hope you are well too.
XXXX: I have just seen this being shared by MW players all over facebook and wanted to confirm if it is true:-
XXXX: From The Mafia Wars Team, Hello fellow mobsters. We regret to inform you that Mafia Wars will be closed for play on Feb 29th - Feb. 31st for some much needed maintenance. We are sorry for the inconvenience but look for some exciting new new game play when we come back online March 1st. Thank You, The Mafia Wars Team
Silvia R.: I see, let me check this for you.
XXXX: thank you
Silvia R.: XXXX, this information is wrong. The game won't be closed, anyway February only has 28 days this year.
I am still shocked she had to go to her supevisor to confirm it. LOL
I always think twice before commenting on John's posts, especially before I click on his links. He's such a butt nugget. Always a pleasure to be in his presence. Jerk. LMAO!
ReplyDeleteIf people dont realize that its a joke even after seeing the dates, they should at least realize after reading the part of the sentence AFTER the dates. "Mafia Wars will be closed for play on Feb 29th - Feb. 31st for some much needed maintenance." When did they last do any maintenance? :D
ReplyDeleteIt would be a real hoot if it were indeed a real post from Zynga and THEY were the one's who did not realize that Feb has only 28 days!! LOL
