Thanks. So I was able to verify that my server is whitelisted. However, is 2 API calls enough for a "proxy"? Let me explain. I'm building a Twitter client in Flash Lite. Flash Lite currently only supports ActionScript2. Because there is no AS2 Twitter API, I'm using a server side API proxy. So

Serge, You can always verify the whitelisted status of your IP or user through a call to account/rate_limit_status. For instance, here are my results: doug$ curl -u dougw:PASSWORD http://twitter.com/account/rate_limit_status.xml 2009-07-21T08:29:35+00:00 19995 2 1248164975 Notice

Thanks for looking in to this and for unsuspending my account. Did you also confirm that the server I am working from is whitelisted? How can I make sure that it is? If it's not, then I won't be able to release my application because everyone will get suspended who uses it then? Thanks, Serge On

Serge, Looking at the account I'm not quite sure why it was suspended. The records are inconclusive. I've unsuspended the account. For posterity's sake I'll repeat that whitelisting will not protect you from suspension. Whitelisting raises select REST API limits. Thanks, Doug On Mon, Jul 20,

Hard to check into your suspension without a username :) I'd take this off-list but I am hoping there is a learning opportunity here. Whitelisted accounts are able to get suspended. Whitelisting affects REST API GET requests and DM update limits only. It does not protect you from suspension, it w

Can you say what your account is doing? Sounds like you are getting suspended for a good reason if it has happened twice already. On Mon, Jul 20, 2009 at 5:00 AM, sjespers wrote: > > That could work but if I got suspended twice in two days, I'm sure a > test account won't last long. I need to k

That could work but if I got suspended twice in two days, I'm sure a test account won't last long. I need to know what is going wrong and why my whitelisted account and service get suspended. On Jul 20, 1:48 pm, Andrew Badera wrote: > On Mon, Jul 20, 2009 at 7:18 AM, sjespers wrote: > > > Any

Nothing special. It's a simple mobile Twitter app. Because I'm using Flash Lite I use my server as a proxy between the app and the Twitter API. On Jul 16, 9:16 pm, Peter Denton wrote: > What is your application doing? > > > > On Thu, Jul 16, 2009 at 12:13 PM, sjespers wrote: > > > This is now t
