[twitter-dev] How to Check for Banned IP

2009-08-17 Thread Aaron Forgue
I believe that my Twitter application's API requests are being
blocked/banned as a result of the recent DoS mitigation steps. Who should I
contact to find out for sure?

I am experiencing this problem as well. All of my requests to the API
just all of a sudden started timing out a day or two ago. I have no
idea who to contact to resolve the problem.

My app, too, appears to be blocked. I can't even get status codes -
the requests just timeout with no response.

[twitter-dev] Re: Platform downtime is expected

2009-08-17 Thread Aaron Forgue

Is this downtime specific to only oAuth related requests, or all API
requests? My site has not been functioning for the past day and all I
am getting back are http codes of "0".

Is my app perhaps blocked?
