This should make you laugh...last night I tried to post a question to the Twitter Development Talk forum at google, just asking what the best practices were (besides obeying their rate limiting messages) for legitimate developers like myselfto avoid my "clients" getting banned when doing auto following. The question was actually pretty innocuous the way I wrote it. The group is moderated, so your question first goes to a Twitter employee before being allowed to post to the group. I logged in to check my answer this morning. Not only did they not allow the question to be posted, but they banned the random gmail account I used from the forum.
They must not like us :yield:.
