How are they logging back in? The point of OAuth and SSO is that your users don't need to create a login (username/password pair) with your site. They login with Twitter EVERY time they login. The important difference between OAuth/OpenID/SSO and your typical "register, verify and login" model is that the user's login credentials are outsourced to a 3rd party (like Twitter) along with the entire workflow that goes along with managing authentication (email verification, lost passwords, etc.)
Rather than your user model looking like: username/password/email/ [profile data] it looks like twitter_id/[profile data] I hope that helps.
