Jay - perhaps that's a new feature. This conversation was posted 9 months ago. There was no delete account function at that time. – Courtney, on August 28, 2008 14:05

I had this problem and it was the inverter. Took it to the Apple store and they fixed it - have never had the issue since.

Courtney replied on August 04, 2008 19:19 to the question "Bug in new separated protected accounts" in Twitter:

Sure. This happened both times I have followed someone new since the follow/following separation for private accounts. The new people I followed are @coley and @missrouge. It's weird because it breaks the whole timeline - when I started following @coley this morning, I had a page and a half of my full stream, and then nothing but @coley going back pages and pages and weeks and weeks. She's now pushed back to page 5, but it is still there, all the way to page 10. I'm guessing she will be properly slotted in future posts, and these will scroll off, which is how the problem "resolved" itself when I added Tara before.

Hmm. Courtney - can you either post or email the names of the effected accounts?

Courtney asked a question in Twitter on August 04, 2008 16:26:

Bug in new separated protected accounts

I'm seeing a bug in the new protected accounts. I approved someone to follow me, and then followed them back, expecting their posts to be slotted into the timeline of people I follow. Instead, I get a page of my normal stream, then pages and pages of ONLY the new person. Logging out and back in does not fix the problem. This has now happened twice; after the first one, I just used Twitterific until it stopped happening, though I am not sure what changed.

By the way -- Crystal started a new topic regarding the change to protected profiles.

I suggest that we log any bugs / issues that we encounter (if any) with this protected profile change in the other thread, so they'll be easier to find and track.

The new thread is here:

We finally got this fix out the door; it was amazingly tricky from a code management perspective because of the number of moving parts. And, of course, it kept getting pushed because of needed stability work.

Please let us know if you run into bugs with the new functionality. There are additional enhancements we wanted to make (like showing the number of follower/following counts for the requesting user) that had to be cut because of performance reasons. They're still on the list tho'.

Glad folks are happy about the change; thanks for hanging in there as we fixed it.

Tremendous! With this fix and the increased stability of the service in general, Twitter is really starting to look shiny again.

Thanks, Twitter team!

That's great news! It must have been tricky to implement; I'd got used to the idea of it being impossible.

Thanks, Twitter!

Great news! Many thanks to Twitter. Now I can finally mobilise groups of friends, colleagues and relatives to set up their own private Twitter groups to coordinate their activities without having to 'go public'.
