I think you're assuming that correlation equals causation. You have no idea why you were suspended, and any hypothesis you, or others come up with, is simply conjecture. It could be because you hit follow limit repeatedly, because you removed too many people, because (looking at your Google cache) you have a large number of advertisements, because most of your tweets contain links, because too many people blocked you, because too many people reported you as spam, because you were a victim of a phishing attack, because you logged in from multiple different IPs, because you clicked on a phishing link, and on and on.
It's highly unlikely that you're going to find the answer here, however. The best bet is to follow their reporting system and almost certainly someone will get in touch with you to explain. I do hope you give Twitter a little more breathing room before you "contact the press"!!! ;) Regards, PB On Sep 11, 10:46 am, "Dean Collins" <[email protected]> wrote: > -----Original Message----- > From: [email protected] > [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of PJB > Sent: Friday, September 11, 2009 12:49 PM > To: Twitter Development Talk > Subject: [twitter-dev] Re: Draft: Twitter Rules for API Use > > Dean: > > Can you please stop posting about your individual TWITTER ACCOUNT > issue on a Twitter developer forum?
