Twitter Ghosting

Maybe I am crazy or Lucky, because this is one of the Accounts I put up 2 days ago from the Buyaccs Aged Batch, I have followed around 1600 users and unfollowed 500+ since and the account is getting Follows and sending DMs witout issue. Maybe just stay the course as far as following goes and your accounts will be sorted out.

Can you confirmed that your followers received notification by e-mail?
 
I took few test accounts from different packages from Buyaccs and it has that issue maybe we talk about different providers?
 
The same issue with new accounts. I think after unlocking account twitter has filter do not notificate new followers that you follow.
 
Still, not getting any follow back for since like... 18th...
How's that even possible?

The issue is with the notifications. The follow itself should go through, so if someone notices it, he/she can still follow back. It's just that, he/she doesn't get notifications anymore about that you followed him/her.

Nonononno, typo...

I meant when I use User B to follow myself, I get no notification.
Although I tried like 10 account to follow myself, they popped on my notification,
but after mass following using that 10 accounts.

The notification on my account gone... Vanish...

Ghosting I believe.

Tried delay follow, even following like 100 users a day, still... Get ghost..

Same shit happened to most of my accounts. I even made fresh account tried to follow and didn't get any notification. And after mass following on old accounts, notifications dissapeared completely.
 
So what to do in this case? Because ghosted accounts are useless
 
It's not useless, try adding dm features, even they dnt get notify of follow they can still receive dm.
 
I think twitter will ban for DM or users will report about spam!
 
I have the same problem. Has anybody got more info on this? I do get some traffic.. so it seems some notifications are sent but the percentage is really low. On older accounts I unfollowed people from I am completely ghosted.
 
This is still hitting accounts pretty heavily. Not sure what are the root causes of this. I'm only seeing really really old aged accounts survive and do well... not have any ghosting notifications.

Can't find any other variables to play around with quite yet to break this..

People can notice the follow on Twitter too, either by checking their followers or seeing the pop up notification, if it's enabled, but maybe that one is ghosted too. If you still get "some" traffic, it doesn't necessarily mean that some of the notification emails have been sent, maybe it was, maybe it wasn't, but those few people could have noticed the follow while they were checking their list of followers.
 
Hey Guys-

21 of 66 accts ghosted (no likes or new follows notified) << aged accts among those ghosted, newer accts with low daily follows not ghosted.

I saw in a Twitter Dev Form that a guy saw his test acct return to normal by resting it for 3d.. I will try that.

My data kinda looks like (notifications & a few hundred follows per day) yields less new followers per day than +1000 follows without notification, but will monitor this more closely going forward.

Twitter already has automated follow & like rate limits in place & the sms verify and acct lock/password reset "brakes" in place. So, this additional measure seems unnecessary to me. Is there any official word on this from TW? There are a few questions about this in the Twitter Dev Forums, but there is not even the usual political say-nothing with many words type reply - just no response.

Best.

Looks like that accounts not totally ghosted, somedays i have 30+ new followers on ghosted accounts ( and not all of them are bots).
Twitter has been such a bitch lately :)

I've created thread there "follow for follow isn't allowed anymore", pls comment there to bump thread. Twitter staff commented there, but very vague. Maybe we can make them give more detailed info.

Good idea DavisRand, Risk has posted something over there

@DavisRand - probably just a coincident, but I suffered a rash of suspended accts within a few hours of posting over there..

Hey Guys-

Checking in with my daily suspended accts report.

38 accts suspended last night.

Surviving accts on same proxies & same pva #'s as those suspended. I run 2-4 accts per proxy & pva #. So, Twitter is not automatically suspending all accts on the same IP & pva #.

Anyway, the culprit I belive and as many know/suspect is excessively following. I receieved several sms verifies, lock/password & ghosting warnings. Got to adapt.

Its kinda hard to explain why some surviving accts were not suspended, I was doing more/less the same stuff. On the other hand, accts that had been ghosted and I was resting for 3d and had done no following 24 hrs prior were suspended (they were tweeting). Makes me think some of the accts fate was sealed 24 hrs or more before they were actually suspended.

Twitter's formal policy < 1000 follows per day, so I am looking at starting low and maybe testing upto those levels.

Best,

Risk
