To view all the twitter posts linked in Q texts, I decided to get a twitter account, so that I could follow certain people and news organizations. I have since then discovered that a person cannot "follow" unless they post a certain number of twitter, so Twitter tries to get people addicted.
However, within five minutes, my account was locked as spam, but before those five minutes were up, I was able to see Mr. Jeff Session's page, which convinced me that he is a sincere person and is not the demon portrayed by some.
I appealed to Twitter, and after 21 days of silence, my account was suddenly unlocked, but it remained suspended. So, I appealed again, and finally four hours later, I received this message from Twitter:
Hello,
We've unsuspended your account; sorry for the inconvenience. Please note that it may take an hour or so for your follower and following numbers to return to normal.
Twitter has automated systems that find and remove multiple automated spam accounts in bulk. Unfortunately, it looks like your account got caught up in one of these spam groups by mistake.
Please do not respond to this email as replies will not be monitored.
Thanks,
Apparently, I was not the only one to experience this inconvenience as others have complained that their newly obtained Twitter account was likewise locked until they could verify account information by smart phone, email address, and their real name.
It was not worth all this effort as I was able to browse Twitter when I did not have an account. While my account was locked, I could not read anything except the small ban and appeal windows.
