My account was also suspended. I don't know why. However, I found this on consumed consumer.org (someone had posted it to a different support page):
"Here’s what tweetlater had to say:
Sunday, July 5th, 2009: A lot of people with legitimate Twitter
accounts are currently suffering from having their accounts suspended
(late Sunday afternoon).
It is not TweetLater’s doing or fault. So, please do not submit a
TweetLater support request about it.
We just heard back from Twitter via email, and they said : “Spamcloud
hit. We’re working on restoring accounts.”
We just need to be patient. The suspended accounts will be restored."
I hope this is right!

Inappropriate?It's just marvelous! So twitter suspends the account and links to help solve problem either do not work or force me to create new accounts and sign-ons and other linkage that can lessen my system security.
I’m not happy!
-
Inappropriate?Make a new account? Why the hell should I have to do that when I did nothing wrong and some idiot decides to suspend my account? Yeah right... They need to get their shit straight!
I’m deeply pissed off

Inappropriate?I'm having the same problem.
The least Twitter should do is:
Twitter should create a Suspended Accounts Help page
http://twitter.shoulddothis.com/sugge...
Please endorse this statement on shoulddothis.com !
BTW: they are other microblogs: http://microblogs.ning.com
and I might just used Friendfeed instead of Twitter in the future... like I was already
I’m frustrated

Inappropriate?please god (twitter), please re-instate me! i've had no devious activity!!!
-
Inappropriate?i've been suspended today, i don' think twitter cares about any problems now. i've contacted them 3 times over the past 3 weeks for customer service and have only heard back from a bot who told me how to get started on twitter, i've been here 18 months.
i was highjacked by porn last week and now this. it really pisses me off that this has happened.
FAIL WHALE INDEED!
oh and i bet if ashton kutcher had this problem, the "twitter team" would be on it like white on rice.
I’m so pissed you cant comprehend

Inappropriate?I've been reinstated after finding out about why it could have happened and which action to take:
I've finally found out about what to do in case of suspension and the possible reason why it's being done - http://cli.gs/WmjX6Z
@jansegers [back in business !] / @webosoof
BTW it was due to Adf.ly just like I thought it would have been...

"I've finally found out about what to do in case of suspension and the possible reason why it's being done - http://cli.gs/WmjX6Z"
this definitely worth looking. Furthermore this definitely PROVES Twitter group of idiots and retards.
"extremely imbalanced follower/following ratio"
It's like: How can I control who the fuck follows me?
If I wanna have 1 gazillion of friends WHAT THE FUCK TWITTER CARES?
"updates consist of duplicate or repeating links and/or text"
Oh.. and now I'm supposed to "update" whatever they want me to? I want to update my fucking website. How do I do that? By posting links to other websites? Oo
"updates consist mainly of links and not personal updates"
Which retard wrote this? "mainly of links". Do you really want me relying on your fucking limited 1 page for showing my thoughts? How can I do that if I dont post links?
"unauthorized "re-tweets""
So now re-tweets are considered spam too? It was your fucking brilliant idea not mine or members. Or do you have to "authorize it"? How? You can't even answer simpler question in your fucking so called "support pages".
"an account is identified as belonging to a group of spam accounts"
You mean by this ... ? If I follow someone who is a spammer that makes me a spammer too? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA This one is to funny.
"a large number of people block the profile in question"
Ok. So recently a fucking idiot with a gazillion of accounts block my account. So I am definitely a spammer? Nice one. I will keep making accounts to fuck someone. Just to prove this stupid "idea". No offense for the victim LOL
This proves one thing only: some idiots wake up in a morning and have a brilliant idea:
P1: - Hey what if we make a system that connects everyone on the planet?
P2: - Yeah sounds great, but isn't this a lot of work?
P1: - Well, we can do it this way:
- we make the site and launch it;
- wait for a gazillion of people to join "free"
- THEN we post some stupid rules so we show them "who the boss is" (for fun)
- maybe after that we make this a "membership site" like : if you want to NEVER be suspended you have to pay $97 a month etc...
P2: - GREAT lets do this. -
So how long was it from when you contacted Twitter to your reinstatement?
-
Inappropriate?LATEST UPDATE:
Try changing your email to xxx@yahoo.com or any variation of the following:
xxx@yahoo.com
xxxx@yahoo.com
xxxxx@yahoo.com
xxxxxx@yahoo.com
xxxxxxx@yahoo.com
xxxxxxxx@yahoo.com
xxxxxxxxx@yahoo.com
See just how many "false" accounts it exists in "The Kingdom of Idiots"
And yet, they suspend people like you and me. That sucks.
I’m frustrated

Inappropriate?if it's such a problem why can't the assholes figure it out ??
Besides they need to shave their legs like I do !
Bike Racers Rule !!!!
I’m fucking pissed
-
Inappropriate?Obviously twitter has some devious plan to suspend accounts and get more 'New accounts" does that add to their so called total amount of users! Re-instate my account! webbosphere
I’m frustrated
-
Inappropriate?I figured I'd try out Twitter (finally) after avoiding it until now so we created a brand new account for our website (TravelGator) and started posting updates, links to cool stuff we found (all travel related) and re-tweeting information others posted that we thought was interesting.
And they suspend us and from what I can tell that may pretty much do it for our account given the lack of response that everyone is complaining about.
Nicely done Twitter....let's see if you can actually fix this.
I’m pissed
-
Inappropriate?Despite my initial reservations I decided to make a new account... now let's see how long it takes twitter to fix my original one (with 3 yes THREE) service tickets attached to it. The point is that this should not have happened in the first place, I did nothing wrong - no spam, no excessive followings or followers, maybe my follower to followed ratio was off but come on, who the hell cares how many people follow me and that I follow?
I’m Still fucking pissed
-
Inappropriate?I now how frustrating a suspension can be, therefore, I started this real twitterhelp functionality...- http://cli.gs/TwitHelp

Inappropriate?We also now have a second twitter account - travelinggator as I don't hold out much help for getting our original TravelGator account fixed.

Inappropriate?We were suspended also! Been here less than a week! WE ARE NOT SELLING ANYTHING NOR SPAMMING ANYONE. Just a local band trying to reach out to real FRIENDS of our REAL FRIENDS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I’m frustrated
-
Inappropriate?Twitter is full of it!!!! OMG! They suspend you for no reason, then do not have any kind of support. So now you have to create a new account.. What away to get more signups twitter!!!! You cant even cancel your account they removed that feature!!!!! No wonder why, they say there working on it. if they cant fix that small issue wtf!!! Worst company ever....FU Twitter
I’m Pissed

Inappropriate?My account has been suspended as well. That was 5 days ago and I have yet to receive an actual human response or a reactivation of my account. This is is getting really annoying.

OHHHHH YES..GOD FORBID YOU USE ADF.LY..YOU WILL GET SUSPENDED IN A HOT SECOND..THEY WANT ALL THE MONEY......JUST ANOTHER PRIME EXAMPLE OF CORPRATE AMERICAN GREED...WHY THIS COUNTRY IS IN SOOOOOO MUCH TROUBLE NOW

Inappropriate?Twitter is a sick bird - it refuses to respond. It reminds me of the "Dead Parot joke from Monty python.

Inappropriate?My business account was suspended last night. It's crazy to think it takes 30 days for a review. Can a business afford to invest in marketing on a platform w/ no live support for 30 days? Can a media afford to invest budget to feed a platform where they wait 30 days? Very disconcerting...
I’m confused

That's cool for those of you who fell into that catagory - most of the people here had their accounts suspended quite some time prior to July 5th. Happy for you guys though!
-
Inappropriate?Why is my account suspended
-
Inappropriate?It is probably no fault of your own. The favourite word is spam cloud. If you have joined any of the unregulated applications it might help to change your password. In a month or two they will get back to you with apologies. You will be reinstated and very likely the account will still not work.

Twitter does not care. However the only good thing about twitter is that it got me interested in selling my book rights. Now I have become a screenwriter with some big prospects of making feature films. I still do not have a twitter account that works.
-
Inappropriate?ITS ALL TOTAL BS.......WE SIGN UP FOR THE TWITTER FOLLOWERS SITES AND THEY BLAST OUT AL TON OF TWEETS THAT SAY THE SAME THING THEN WE GET SUSPENDED......BULLSHIT .....ITS JUST TOTAL BULLSHIT
I’m FEELING ABUSED BY TWITTER

They unsuspended me and then set pages of instructions. The account still does not work. Some say open a new one. If there are spammers out there they probably open two or three accounts a day to keep ahead of twitter who take months to reply.
-
ok... they unsuspended me.. total twitter downtime about 25 mins... was a nightmare... but pulled thru... :p
-
Inappropriate?AND WHEN IT COMES TO SPAM...IF PEOPLE ARE CLICKING YOUR LINKS...THEN HOW CAN IT BE CALLED SPAM.....NO ONE MADE 15,000 PEOPLE CLICK MY SITES......

Inappropriate?I've been suspended for weeks, maybe even over a month! I have three tickets, two of which were closed with no response and one that I just keep posting on to keep it open. This is crazy! How is anyone supposed to run a site like this? They should be fined by the FCC or something! If they're going to offer a service, they have to be regulated by somebody. Anybody have any suggestions on getting an account reinstated? BTW, NO, I am NOT going to open a new account! ladytonya is my user name on everything. That is not people find me and I'm not going to change that just because one site can't get their shit together!
I’m frustrated

Inappropriate?I didn't understand what happened..I was just following my friends and some celebrities..I don't know why my account was suspended..I didn't do nothing wrong..I'm frustrated.

I’m NOT HAPPY, OBVIUOSLY.

Inappropriate?I must be on my third month now.
I was told after 30 days that http://twitter.com/lookman_author was reinstated and I am still waiting.
I have raised a number of tickets, but never get a reply. Now they have deleted all my followers.
If anyone is really concerned - I would set up a new email if you do not have a spare one and start a new Twitter account.
I’m sad

After three months or more I am on line again. Well, I was last time I tried. The only great disappointment was that I was flooded with spammers trying to sell me something. If it was entertaining it would not have been so bad..

Inappropriate?Same problem to me. My account has been suspended on monday(10th August). Never spammed nobody. I sent out a ticket.
Looks like they have no idea what they are doing.
I think i'ill set up a new account. Followers are already gone.
I’m sad!
-
Inappropriate?My account has been suspended for two months, that is even before the spamcloud.
Twitter has not replied to my requests for why I was suspended. It seems they just don't care about anyone who is not a celebrity.
If I could find the page to delete my account I would, but they make that hard to do as well.
I am recommending to everyone I know to not join Twitter or if they are already on Twitter to cancel their account as well.
It is a sad thing to screw people over the way Twitter has the last couple of months. -
-
Inappropriate?My account has been suspended as of Sept. 26, 2009 for seemingly no reason, considering what I've "tweeted" (gag). I've read the user agreement and am fully versed on the terms and conditions. Chances are this is either the result of incompetent maintenance on Twitter's part or some form of censorship. The former explanation is, of course, most likely given Twitter's online reputation, although citizens of Pax Americiana can never be too quick to rule out the latter (again, considering what I've "tweeted" (BLARGHBARF)).
Also, there literally is no emoticon for how this makes me feel... might want to do something about that getsatisfaction.com
