Inappropriate?Wow. I didn't realize that was going to make a forum post. Kind of reads like Tarzan speak... My question is: is there a way to shut off the "tips" that Twitter appends to text messages received on phones? I am constantly receiving two text messages just because Twitter has to put their tip at the end and it exceeds the number of characters. Anyone know a way to stop this?
All the best,

Inappropriate?Hi Jay,
AFAIK, there isn't a way to turn that off. Maybe some official Twitter staff can chime in.
I did notice myself just yesterday that Twitter asked me.. "what are you doing... for the environment". And yes, that went to a 2nd SMS, but fortunately it's OK as I have unlimited SMS, but I could see how this is a problem for someone who doesn't. -
Inappropriate?I've tweeted about it a few times, but if they won't remove the tips, it would be great to at least ensure that their tips don't go over the SMS character limit. 8 times out of 10 when i receive a direct message i get 2 text messages -- not good when I'm on a 200 SMS plan.

Inappropriate?I too am dying to have this shut off--I can understand getting tips for the first one or two direct messages, but after that I want it disabled. Offer the ability to re-enable it for those who easily forget, but getting two for one messages is irksome.
