And any company that Mark runs is almost inevitably doomed to failure. Mr. Pincus is only in it for the fast buck, and won't try to provide long term customer service. Look at the social networking site he started, Tribe. It is in a continual stumble, needing service and upgrades, which Mr. Pincus neglects to provide. I think that if you were to evaluate every company that he has been associated with in a major way, you will find this to be true. I hope that providers of Cap notice this, and keep that in mind when trying to decide whether to invest in any future venture by Mr. Pincus. I think you'll find that the CEO is Mark Pincus.

Zynga now is responsible for Roger Dickey's Mafia Wars application on Facebook, which is riddled with issues, players can be maxed out in a matter of mere months all causing players to leave in droves because no one will respond or fix any issues. I, for one, would never invest in a company like this. Zynga might have great investors but their customer service skills, responses when applications or users have issues is sorely lacking.
