Suspended Accounts still being returned in follower data
I'm still noticing suspended accounts showing up in follower data. Of course, you can detect them by checking the error message returned, but this is wasting near at least 5 minutes for each user in the script I'm running. Is there a way you can exclude those from the list of followers? Is there any reason to keep them in the list of followers? I'd rather not have to keep trying to follow people you guys know are suspended when you know they're suspended. I could put them on my own list, but how do I know their account has stopped being suspended? That would be a huge help if you could remove them from the followers list. Thanks, Jesse

Yeah, I've wanted this just with my regular Twitter account. They don't automatically remove suspended accounts from follower lists, but I too wish they would. -damon On Wed, Nov 12, 2008 at 5:42 PM, Jesse Stay [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I'm still noticing suspended accounts showing up in follower data.

Re: Suspended Accounts still being returned in follower data
Instead of removing them, you should just add a field like 'status' or something similar.
Re: Suspended Accounts still being returned in follower data
A query parameter enabling me to not return the suspendeds would be ideal if you do that. The problem with just a 'status' for each follower is I still get all the suspended accounts returned in the follower data, taking longer to query all their friends. This can be anywhere near 50 and several hundred per individual.
