    Zynga have the WORST customer service I have ever encountered. They have dropped the ball on their BEST app ever, My Heroes Ability, and will not reply to emails asking for the app to be maintained and updated. Today the app is unplayable and I will not be using any Zynga products in the future.

    There is abosulutely no moderators or supervision on these game applications. We have countless numbers of teenagers playing. There is serious real life slander, cyberbullying, racial comments and cheating.
