Delete All Twitter Spammers
Would deleting all of the twitterspammers help performance at all? I know it wouldn't fix it, but fewer messages sent is fewer messages sent. Some of these spammers follow 25,000 people or more.
Couldn't Twitter auto-delete accounts that follow more than 10,000 people but have less than 1000 of their own followers?

Inappropriate?Cybersquatting on Twitter is out of control. I want to join Twitter but every word in existence has been taken...I researched these 'taken' pages and they've all been sitting stale for one year because some idiot cybersquatter decided to park a URL on them and never use them for anything.
I’m frustrated

Inappropriate?Here is the main discussion thread for Twitter Spam:
http://getsatisfaction.com/twitter/to...
There are many different opinions on this but I think most people agree that an automated solution to this wouldn't be ideal because there would be too many false positives. It's my understanding that Twitter is manually reviewing accounts that are suspected of spam based on:
1) Spam reports filed by users from this Help page: http://twitter.com/help/
2) Heavy block activity against specific accounts
If they determine that the account violated the TOS, then they either take action against the account. Twitter staff, please correct me if I'm wrong on this. -
Inappropriate?how is just having more followed spam? What if you have more followed and never posted would that be spam? or if you have a lot of followed and you post how does that go to your followed any more then it would if you were not on your followed list? What you are saying is that you Assume anyone with more then x (x being a point you decide) is a spammer and should be removed regardless of their actions.
I’m amused
