    Not that anyone should do such a thing, but a second comping email address and twitter account?

    The problem with that is the massive amounts of people get suspended for following too many and tweeting too many people with a new account as they think it's just created for spam!

    It would be best if you could search on that manageflitter site by the last time I tweeted to them. then I would know the last time I entered one of their comps, and could mostly safely remove them

    I have to keep unfollowing people to enter more comps as i've hit the 2000 limit & I only have 400 odd followers. I wondered how other people dealt with this.

    I've seen posts about following/rt & following everyone that comments who will follow you back. I don't really understand how that works as surely i'll just be following random people so still won't be able to enter new comps. :think: Does anyone do this & does it get you over the 2000 followers you need?

    Thanks in advance. :A

    To follow over 2000 you need to have about 1820 followers as the limit is believed to be the number of followers plus 10% or 2000 whichever is the higher.

    You can either - open a new account with a different e-mail address or unfollow people.

    Start a Blog; run a competition, make people follow you on twitter to enter.
  • I use manageflitter too and unfollow some every so often.
