[twitter-dev] Application suspended, how long to wait to review and make good again?
Hi everyone, Just under 24 hours ago, my app (TweetingMachine, @machinetweeting) was suspended. I quickly asked for more details, and today reviewed the Twitter TOS and found what I thought was the infraction: auto following. Fair enough - I've now removed the feature and sent an update email to a...@twitter.com asking if this was the reason, along with a clarification about other features on the site (e.g. what's called auto follow is actually a tool for automatically following your new followers, the unfollow tool requires manual work, nothing automatic). I'm feeling a bit stressed as I'm genuinely upset to have fallen foul of the Twitter TOS, and I really want to work and make the tool as awesome and legit as possible, but I'm only hearing a deafening silence. The support ticket is here: http://support.twitter.com/tickets/1428177 How long does it typically take to get back to people about these issues? If you could take a brief look and post any details here or wherever's the more convenient for you, I'd really appreciate it. Thanks!

[twitter-dev] Re: PHP OAuth app stopped working "magically"
Hiya, I had a similar problem about the same time; it turned out that I had somehow been ignoring the oauth_verifier parameter that Twitter provides. I plugged it back in and hey presto, problem fixed! ...and then the next day I discovered that I wasn't checking to see if oauth_verifier was always passed - sometimes it isn't - so hopefully I've saved you one gotcha there ;-) Cheers, Tom.
