Feel free to tweet to me and I will do my best to do for you what Toni did to me to see if I can see your tweet. Prob best to message me as well, to saying you've tweeted

@Blulu25

Also, I can see 3 congratulation messages for you over the last couple of days on Twitter. Do you know about them?

Thank you for the offer, seems to be working now though. Had a bunch of notifications when i came back to check, so my tweets seem to be showing up. Will have to try and not be so trigger happy on the retweeting from now on. Will be a slower Freebie Friday for sure.

I did know about them, thanks. Twitter had been fine yesterday, it was just today things started playing up.

I just noticed something: On serenity2012's link in the OP, you add your Twitter name, then click to see if it thinks you are shadowbanned. Mine is still saying I probably am, but in the reply, it offers a second link to a search on Twitter, and says: "If you can't see any tweet made by [your name], this user is most likely shadowbanned."

When I clicked the second link, my tweets showed up fine, as Toni suggested.

The Friday tweets today are going to be fun - not! I'm going to be anxious doing each one, in case it takes me to their next ShadBan stage.

Sos, I know you won't mind my asking, but just to clarify, do you mean do it something like:

F - RW - Comment
RW - F - Comment
Comment - F - RT
And so on.

Thanks as always Petal

Yep, the idea is not to do too many of the same action in a row, by doing like what you have suggested above I have touch wood been ok even with the amount I churn out daily.

Fanks darlin' - I'll stick to that method from now on. Whether it works or not, it's good to have something to try, rather than just be paranoid with it - LOL.

The checker is now showing that my tweets are completely back to normal - yay!

What I've experienced with shaddowbanned & blog comps.

I've been on & off SB'd since April. First thing is don't waste your time going to twitter support filling forms or tweeting the support basically they don't care. They SB your account because they think you are spam, it's not a fault as such even though you are not spam!.

You can't get away with the above altering how you tweet when you enter blog comps because the option of doing the above is not there, you tweet save the url & that's it. I did actually try liking & retweeting my own blog comp tweets but that did not work either.

I've opened a new twitter account that does not work either so they must flag your IP address as spam.

Do not even go near gleams, I don't know what about them twitter does not now like but tweet one or two & you are SB'd. Sorry to all the bloggers who do use them, but for the people who twitter has flagged up as spam they are SB'd again.

Do one twitter action every 5 mins, that includes tweeting or following new people this worked for a whole day until I forgot myself & tweeted a gleam!. It's painfully slow annoying & it really cheeses you off! but I even entered twitter comps that day with the 5 min rule (now I've posted this they will change it! lol)

Sometimes when you are SB'd they make your tweets invalid, this means that copy & pasting your tweets into a browser & they are not live links so sometimes being SB'd means all your entries into raffs & gleams are invalid as most bloggers check the tweet url's to make sure you actually did tweet & are not telling porky pies!. Once you are not SB's again your tweets then become live again so your entries count.

Because I can't even go 24 hours tweeting very few tweets for comps I want to win I can't now tweet every comp I find for others to enter sorry about that to both compers & bloggers but I can't find anyway to change this at the moment if I do then I will start doing it again.

The SB's seem to last between 24-48 hours at the moment.

I'm thinking of making lists again but not sure what to do if anything yet.

Step away from gleam and raff, jus do a few twitter comps here and there to build your acct back, I was going to tell you you're actually search filtered so your tweets are showing as i've just commented on your tweet to me.

Search filtering only matters on hashtag comps.

I have not found gleam any worse than R/C in this respect.
