Regardless of your answer to the poll question, everyone that uses or has used Twitter has encountered a spammer (people/accounts that follow u just to load your tweet feeds with garbage).
Personally, I haven’t used my Twitter account in months due to all the spam. I have even considered deleting all my friends and starting over to get rid of all the spammers that have started following me (many of my friends have already done this). But after seeing others do the same to end up with close to the same results, (and to not look like a dick) I kept my Twitter account in tact and only acknowledged my meaningful friends on Twitter.
I have just started using my Twitter account again…conversing with friends and people they way it was meant to be used (not blowing up peoples accounts with meaningless garbage that doesn’t pertain to them).
I was only brought back to Twitter from a recent discovery that is putting spammers to rest for actual Twitter users. The program is called True Twit. It verifies that the people who are following you are actual people. And you know if I’m using it, it is well worth the cost or free, and this program is FREE (there is a paid version but the free has served all of my need thus far). They seem relatively new as a company and see they are increasing their services regularly.
So if u answered “yes” to the poll, go check this site out and implement it into your Twitter account to reduce your spam encounters.
I wish you the best in all you do.
