Laura,
You may want to consider temporarily removing the contract and maybe
even the entire claiming feature while you're sorting this out.
Why continue to ask developers to agree to something that you don't
agree with yourself, and continue to tick off developers?
It may be a prudent approach
What about an empty response? I get it from my .Net API. I've only had it
happen twice.

Absolutely true. on both counts...
However, not so long ago Twitter banned many accounts by mistake
because they used tweetlater.
The trouble is on one hand Twitter supports, encourages the creation
of these applications and on the other hand fails horribly to provide
sufficient guidelines

There's no need to bump threads here.
As for your question, I believe the befriend_all link was available a
year (or two) ago, until people abused it. If I remember correctly, it
was accessible through a GET request which made it easy to abuse
(shorten the link, tweet it out, boom!).
Get used to receiving random 502 (and other response codes) from the
Twitter API. If you don't know exactly what the code means I suggest
retrying it. If it's explicit that you're being rate limited then
wait before you retry.

Yes exactly - Twitter doesnt live by a coherent ruleset. It openly
promotes bots yet suspends people without any warning or information.
It opens its doors to be gamed and kicks people out randomly.
This lack of transparant rules is working like a charm isnt it.

John,
With reference to used for invalid purposes in your post.
That begs the question, what exactly constitute invalid purposes?

As someone who's been a Twitter user since March 2007 or so, and a

One more thought about this.
Audience (followers) is to Twitter what PageRank is to Google. Twitter
created a commodity when it enabled the unlimited follower capability.
As long as it is a commodity, money-motivated people will continue to
exploit it as a commodity, just like they exploit
it will not (at least, that's what I've seen on the list thus far.)
