[twitter-dev] Re: Is there an account suspension and an API suspension?

2009-04-27 Thread RC

Doug, I realize this is my fault.  My algorithm had managed to collect
up a number of suspended accounts and tried to follow them.  When I
kept seeing the "This account is suspended" message I got paranoid and
thought it was talking about my account, not the one I was trying to
follow.  My fault.  Sorry for the bother.  Keep up the good work.

What HTTP response code are you seeing? What is the text of the error? What
method are you using when you see this error (is it only
friendships/create)?

Have you hit the follower limit [1]? Note: whitelisting will not increase
follower or update limits.
