@Zoltan66 are you still having issue of posts with just text and no photos?

Yes, I saw it happen one time today, I don't think it's a big issue, as someone else told here he was using another botting program and also had banned accounts.

I chatted with them but they don't have username and password except for authorization, I wonder how people manage to use this proxy provider on dub.

my home IP doesn't change until you restart it.
 
For me all the ones I lost came from 2 datacentre proxy ranges. Every account old or new on those 2 ranges got blocked. One was New York and one was Illinois. All other US locations were fine for old and new accounts. All my accounts perform the same actions from a pool of pictures and links so it cannot have ben that reason. They all follow/unfollow about the same amount every day. So far today nothing has been blocked after I deleted those 2 proxy ranges and got new ones for new accounts.
 
A little update: I noticed accounts that were using residential/mobile IPs were not affected. So far just my accounts under datacenter IPs were hit.
 
I also noticed some locations from my DC proxies got hit hard and other DC locations have (almost) no hits, I also have accounts banned that didn't tweet a lot of content while others accounts that were spamming a lot more have not been banned. I also notice IP chain bans. I'm getting convinced by what I notice myself and see others post that the biggest factor of our banwave is because of those datacenter proxies, which probably puts us higher on the radar.
 
looks like the end of DC proxies in the short(ish) term. what residential IP provider would be recommended? and how many accounts per residential IP max?

The question is, was this a one time thing or a test phase?

errr, most likely the answer we don't like. As on IG manual content and engagement seem to be the way.

I truly believe Elongaturd thinks he's back in 2003 playing the sims on his mom's computer. And we are the Sims...
 
A huge amount of password resets today. Probably 80% of my accounts and mostly its email resets rather than parkrose challenges.

My bot is running 50 account ATM, and so far I don't have any password resets.

Same here, updated twitterdub on one of my VPS's and it's posting content again. to be continued
 
"Your account may have been compromised by a website or service not associated with Twitter." Thats the message I had in the inbox of the ones that needed a password reset today. Actually had 37 for password reset and 2 of those were suspended. Can't see anything connected to proxies this time. Plus all my accounts perform the same actions and post the same links etc so I haven't worked out a pattern yet. Will keep trying to work it out.
