Did Twitter turn on us?

**nascar1** · 27 April 2009, 12:49 pm

I just paid Twitter a visit, did a search for gambling and almost every user account on the front page is suspended. We are not talking huge followers here. 3-700 tops.

Are all gamblers spamming or is Twitter taking a 'conservative' road?

FYI my gambling accounts are not (yet) suspended

No, I think depends on what they were doing, If you send a lot of DM and then got blocked but users twitter suspends you fast

They wont be banning me for sending updates and tweets too often, i have no idea how to!

I think i am a twit not a twitter!

I remember same thing happening on Digg last year for me.

Digg doesn't like me no more!!!

So sad!!

Yeah I use onlywire, so if one gets banned, you still have back up. i have 5 accounts now in onlywire, do the math,lol

I am noticing that some days when I sign on I am following an extra 200 people - people I did not follow! I am not talking about people who follow me, I am talking about people I am following.

Somehow someone is doing that. Maybe some of these folks get caught and closed down.

Also, there is a lot of domain squatting, people asking for money to free your domain, and people using common well known domains to collect followers they can spam.

Lots of twitter headaches...

I do have a tweetlater account....

But how does that make me follow someone I didn't follow? I don't do autofollows.

I was actually thinking of twittering, but now I think I better not, otherwise I wont be left with any spare time at all.

**Chalkie** · 27 April 2009, 4:58 pm

Ah, i just got a twitter bar, now the twit will be telling you everywhere he goes

This could be embarrasing

@dom

Ahhh thanks.

I actually have a good casino_resource twitter account. And I observe more casino related members starting to follow me which I wonder why since I havent told them so or promote my account there.
