Dean:
Can you please stop posting about your individual TWITTER ACCOUNT
issue on a Twitter developer forum? No "app" was blacklisted in your
case -- rather your account was suspended. There's a big difference,
and this particular forum topic is about API Rules, NOT about Twitter
account rules.
While I'm sure your situation sucks, you are confusing and conflating
this very important topic -- API rules -- with something totally
different (Twitter user rules).
