Click "follow" just gives error message
Why, when I click the follow button on some users' profiles, do I just get an error message? Not everyone, mind you. Just some people. And they do have "follow" buttons, so it doesn't seem that they're blocking followers.
I’m confused.

Inappropriate?The "something went wrong!" error means that Twitter has burped and requires that you refresh the page and attempt to follow the person again.
If this error message still comes up after a couple of refreshes and tries, you might want to tweet "follow username" into Twitter, using whichever interface you want (SMS, web, a third party app, etc) and Twitter will interpret that as a follow request and not a tweet.
If that still doesn't allow you to follow them, then they have blocked you from following them.
I’m confident
