Hi, can you help me ban a account on twitter? It's spam and I would block it but it's username is too vulgar and explicit that I don't wish for it to be near my account or blocked list. So my solution is to get it banned so I don't have to worry about it. Please help or re-direct me somewhere I can get help for this matter! Please and thank you!

Odd choice considering you'd not normally visit your blocklist anyway. But heck to each their own. That's gonna be tricky and time consuming, especially if it's not branding related or if the account isn't a repeat offender for other infractions. You can still reach out to Twitter about it, don't expect much though. If that was easy, you'd see a lot of people doing that to disrupt competition and such. It's still recommend to go through the trouble of blocking them so you never come across the user on your regular browsing.
I would if I could lol but I have no idea how to achieve that and I don't know anyone who can achieve that either. Can you help?
if it were old twitter, the support team was more active and I wouldn't have to block so I don't need to have history with spam accounts associated with my account. But since it's a new twitter, the support team barely does anything. I really would appreciate a solution! I'll keep reporting!
also do you think I could report its username and get it banned? It's too vulgar and explicit. I think that should be enough right? Can you send me any links where I can exactly report its username and start the banning process at least? I will also look into it myself right now, any help is appreciated

I take it you mean your account is new since I'd say newer accounts receive swift punishment vs old accounts that get the same report.
There's a category for reporting explicit names but again, it takes some time and depending on how severe + volume of unique reports they get, it doesn't really amount to much. It gets through sometimes, but mostly the reports go nowhere for that.
I just checked the help center and saw I can report harassment, it also asked to provide a link for evidence. So I added a link of it's account username and explained the activity it was causing. Hopefully they take action fast! Ima report it with 2 other accounts I have to speed up the process if anything. Thanks for your responses by the way.

If nothing works, you can hire a freelancer on BHW, there are some guys here who may be useful to mass report it or have some insider contacts to delete it
I got one banned but a sugar momma twitter account is spamming dms now & they have tweets showing their spam activity. I reported it and showed evidence so hopefully something happens. Can you please guide me where to find a freelancer with insider contacts? I'd greatly appreciate this and honestly id be doing them a favor by removing spam activity off there site like this, please help
