I don't hate zynga, I just think they're irrelevant, they add no value, they move nothing forward, they are a wealth redistribution scheme. What they do, doesn't 'work' in my book, so I don't care.

so what's the point of your original post that 'Zynga is in fact pulling cash' that's a fact, but so what? why should I care if I don't like how they're doing it? is there something i should take away from the fact that they make cash?



> why should I care if I don't like how they're doing it?

I don't know. Why are you posting in this thread? I wasn't responding to you in my initial reply and I haven't a clue how you managed to feel personally spoken to from it.

Why are you even in a comment thread about a company you consider irrelevant?


It's a public board and I'm responding to a public comment. What I'm asking is why you or anyone care that they're making shit loads of money, why is that so impressive, esp if you hate them? I'm in the thread to challenge folks to think beyond cash so there are fewer zyngas in the world, because that affects the business environemnt and that affects me.


Nobody said it was impressive, and they care only because it came up in the conversation. If you bothered to read the comment thread, you would see that Macha said:

>I understand Zynga even less now."

So saraid216 explained their motivation, i.e. that they're able to make money doing things like this.
