Coach Jones twitter suspended?

[volgrl]

Actually Twitter does not suspend you for gaining that many followers a day. It is the other way around...if you follow too many people in ratio to your own follower count. Many people receive well over 1000 followers a day (Charlie Sheen actually gained 1M+ in less than 24 hrs).

Ah. Yes. That makes sense. I had read that there are new twitter rules that flag accounts that have more than 1,000 new followers a day because of third party sites that are now selling follower's information as a tool for people to spam them or gain followers for business purposes.

But after reading more...it is most likely the unfollowing/ new following rule that applies. I am assuming that Cincy fans might be unfollowing CBJ a rapid daily rate considering he is using his old twitter feed to update fans about Tennessee info.

His twitter is back up, but he lost half his followers. Wtf?

One cause of the suspension could be Cinci fans blocking him. He is using the same twitter account he had as their coach (obviously updated his twitter handle) and as he was gaining UT followers, he could have been getting blocked by Cinci fans. Twitter has a specific, yet secret, number of blocks that will automatically trigger suspension of an account.

Between Tennessee and Cincinnati? His twitter account is trapped in Kentucky. Oh no there is no internet in Kentucky!

Jimmy Cheek shut down Coach Jones's Twitter saying that he should focus more on studying for his finals. TIFWIW

This is all part of Gruden's plan to take over.

I think FREAK needs to sticky a thread where people can post the tweets that CBJ makes so people on here can read everything he tweets.

If twitter is going to play games then maybe CBJ needs his own website where he can post anything he wants all the time.

VFL...GBO!!!
