Whiskey Tango Foxtrot?

Um. Yeah. Hi.

Remember Me?

*waves to the people*

I am the one who vanished with no explanation in the middle of tweeting.

Yep.

I think I was banned from twitter.

How did that happen you ask?

I have No Idea.

I was having a GREAT time chatting with my friends over on Twitter when all of a sudden *out of nowhere* I get this message:

“Wow, that’s a lot of Twittering! You have reached your limit of updates for the hour. Try again later.”

Whiskey Tango Foxtrot?

That has never happened to me before.

Has anyone else ever had to deal with that issue?

Or am I just totally abusingTwitter?

  14. dcr says:

    Okay, who will be the last one to turn the lights out?

  15. dcr says:

    Now things are getting creepy. And spooky. And just a little weird.

  16. Meleah says:

    Olga:
    Drive careful.
    Love You!

    Speedy:
    “blog smooching” rules

    DCR:
    I might have to check that “single situation” out.

    Awake:
    Sleep tight.
    xxoo

  17. dcr says:

    Good night John Boy’s sister or whatever everyone else was named. No one ever remembers anyone but John Boy!

  18. dcr says:

    I might have to check that single situation out.

    Tweet me tomorrow, er, later today and I can tweet you back the person’s Twitter ID.

  19. dcr says:

    @Meleah: What do you do, go back and bold things AFTER you leave the comment?

  20. dcr says:

    What’s not cool?

  21. Meleah says:

    DCR:
    But you said its not cool over there.
    On the Single Site. I Twitter.
    I dunno.
    Maybe.
    Cant hurt to look right?

    And Yes. I go back to “bold” the persons name I am talking to. After I write my comment. Its easier than typing in code for me.

  22. dcr says:

    I Twitter? Is that a different Twitter singles site? I don’t think that’s the name of the one I saw.

    Sure, you can look, but there’s not a lot listed. It’s probably going to be a stretch to find someone on Twitter when people are so far apart!

  23. dcr says:

    Did I say it wasn’t cool over there? I don’t remember that, but I’ve commented and tweeted a lot tonight!

  24. dcr says:

    Hey, we hit 125!

  25. Meleah says:

    DCR:
    Someone said it.
    Who the hell knows anymore!
    LOL.

    THANK YOU TO EVERYONE FOR KEEPING ME COMPANY OVER HERE WHILE I WAS BANNED FROM TWITTER!!!

  26. dcr says:

    Okay, just the two of us left. Party’s over I guess. Good night!

  27. dcr says:

    Did you get locked out of Twitter again?

  28. Meleah says:

    DCR:
    I am totally trying to twitter!

    Awake:
    I think we are good now!
    xxoo

  29. dcr says:

    Ha ha! I’ll sneak in a comment over here.

  30. dcr says:

    No one’s paying attention. We can say whatever we want now. La la la la la la!

  31. Meleah says:

    DCR:
    aaaaa ha ha ha ha ha !!

    You ARE funny!

  32. Selma says:

    I have never Twittered. It’s so lively here I feel like I’m missing out. LOL!

  33. Lee says:

    I got the same message after being on Twitter for about a minute and a half.

    By the way, Whiskey…Tango…Foxtrot comes from the military. They use those words when giving alphabetic information to make sure they are understood. It started in WWII when radio quality was marginal at best.

  34. Wow ! If you are using an external program like Tweet deck or Twhirl, or you are using a Firefox plugin or even tweeting from another website – You are limited to 100 received and sent tweets – per hour.

    But I never received such a message while using the Twitter website itself.

    Twitter has a maximum limit of 1000 updates a day – but I am sure you are not that insane !

    Oops ! Wrong persona !
    hehe hehe

  36. Lady Banana says:

    Never happened to me, yet! LOL

  37. Meleah says:

    Selma:
    Twitter is like Instant Message with all of your friends at once. On the same screen in the same window. Since I was able to send out an SOS that I had been banned from twitter, my peeps brought the party over here so I wouldn’t miss out!

    Lee:
    Yes. you rule. Thank you for clearing up the WTF issue!
    xxoo

    Rolando Zombi:
    I have no idea what I did.
    I have to install-use-figure out Twirl/Tweetdeck TODAY!

    Jaffer:
    LOL LOL
    We were looking for you last night but you had already signed off!
    🙂

    Lady Banana:
    Well, be careful! Apparently there are limits!

  38. Where was I when you were doing your marathon Tweet session?

  39. dcr says:

    Meleah, did you get kicked off Twitter again? We can’t find you!

  40. Meleah says:

    Steph:
    Twitter is like Instant Message with all of your friends at once. On the same screen in the same window! Its tons of fun. You should sign up!

    Silver:
    I think you had logged off for the night. This all happened at like 1am last night!

    DCR:
    Im cool.
    Reading blogs, leaving comments, watching a movie.
    🙂

  41. Betty says:

    OMG! Are you serious? I have never heard of that before myself. How rude! You are only using it the way it was intended to be used. Goodness that is one heck of a story. lol!

  42. Betty says:

    That is just crazy! lol!
    We love you on twitter! 🙂

  43. Rolando says:

    haha never heard of that happening. how many tweets did you post? i’m sure it’s a fluke.

  44. Ricardo says:

    LOL! I have to say those things while reading off Satellite coordinates at work. Too funny. What is the big deal about so much twittering? Maybe they don’t think you’re a real person and are just some spam bit blasting out ads for Viagra.

  45. Ricardo says:

    Writing to you from my new Mac BTW.

  46. Meleah says:

    Betty:
    I know. I was all kinds of distressed when that happened!

    Rolando:
    I have no idea how many tweets I did that day, but it must have been alot!

    Ricardo:
    YAY! New Mac Books RULE! Im so psyched for you!
    xxoo

    Maybe you are on to something? Maybe they thought I was a spammer?
    Oh No!!!!
