I too bore the shame and humiliation of suspension! Happily back up..Twitter did resolve quickly but none the less I wonder how many hours people spent frantically writing explanations..pleading to have accounts restored..to find that the ticket was instantly resolved..(but not really) Thanks to TweetLater for alerting folks and keeping them up to date!

I was suspended as well. It seemed that it's back up but not fully. I can't see the whole tweets, just people's avatar and name (sometime link in the tweets) but not the message.

Hello Carly,

First off, thank you! I really appreciate the above article and the "Free @BostonTweet" tweet at @BostonPhoenix. Thank you!

As you can guess I was very concerned about the suspension until I realized that it was a much larger problem than just my account - I didn't think I did anything wrong. I was pulling my hair out there for a few hours until I decided it was out of my control and that I should go out for some ice cream! Since I couldn't DM or Tweet I decided to use an ancient form of communication, the telephone, to call my friend @Erin_O to go to JP Licks in Coolidge Corner. During this time you emailed me and I apologize that I wasn't able to comment on this article but you pretty much knew what I knew.

Thank you again for your concern, I really appreciate it, and feel free to call or email me tomorrow for a follow up.

Twitter (finally) announced to the world what was going on. Human error is the whipping boy and they are fixing it as we blog.

From their status blog:

Yep - I'm with ya...been suspended as well. Wasn't even on much today - and tried to log in.

Hopefully will get it back soon.

I am @spreadingjoy

Thanks for the article - as I was wondering what in the world spreading a little joy could have done to have the account suspended.
