Please save @fakeron - Chattanooga needs him!
Our account for @fakeron (a satirical character based on our not-so-beloved mayor) is saying that it was suspended due to TOS violations, but we received no communication from Twitter indicating any alleged violations. Satire is clearly fair use, and I know there are other @fake"x" accounts currently active on Twitter.
I logged a support request last week but never got a response, so I'm making a public report here.
Please help! Chattanooga needs @fakeron!

Inappropriate?I have to say that I am absolutely shocked that Twitter has suspended this account. On what grounds? This seems a knee-jerk reaction that can only serve as an absolutely abhorrent precedent.
I’m absolutely sickened

Inappropriate?The absolute lack of communication on Twitter's behalf is horrible. Do you send at least one email to the account holder before you yank away their account or do you just have a lack of customer service skills. Come on....
I’m frustrated

Inappropriate?This is sad. I enjoy following several Santa Claus accounts. Why can't I have my fakeron too? Twitter, please reinstate the account.
I’m sad.

Inappropriate?Hi guys, parody is absolutely allowed on twitter and this was our slip up in removing it. The account was restored and that was communicated to the account owner.
