Keep up the great work!!!

Blocked Spammer won’t block you in return :
- they don’t care
- they are are bots !
- you can’t see who’s blocking you …block in peace my friends !

That’s the biggest source of false hit’s I’ve noticed.

To those against the service: I am listening and you are making some valid points. You are just making them in a non-constructive way.

To whoever reported my IP addresses as spam: don’t assume this helps the situation. This makes me much more likely to take a hard line with the service. I am currently trying to please everyone.

Seeing spam scores out of context is the primary problem. They are of use when in context, i.e. seen relatively with the spammiest people brought to the surface for you to investigate.

I will be working on this problem immediately, stay tuned.

I found you this week by accident, was looking for a way to get rid of those pesky spammers. I have always block the ones I think are spam, not just to protect me, but to stop anyone else following me from seeing them and even thinking about having a look.

You clearly say the software is Alpha, and all blocking software requires some common sense. There are a number of accounts that I know are not spam but have high scores.. at least I can see the potential ones and get rid of the real ones.

Spam is a problem for Twitter, and I think its only going to get worse. Spam blocking will become an important part of Twitter like it is in e-mail, and blog comments. Your service will only get better, and I look forward to it.

I have never come across reciprocal blocking. I currently block around 20-odd accounts and none have returned the favour. This is probably down to the fact that I carefully select them based on a common-sense approach so the only ones I ever block are 100% spam. I doubt if these spambots have feelings or egos so no love lost

When I run TwitBlock I get at least 4-5 accounts that score very high (in the hundreds) that I know aren’t spam (but some people may view as a nuisance, causing a high score based on block count). I personally leave these unblocked due to the fact that TwitBlock simply indicates the likelihood of the account being spam.

I will continue to use TwitBlock as a handy tool for bulk-managing the increasing amount of spambot accounts that follow me on Twitter. As David mentioned above – TwitBlock requires user common-sense to operate correctly. However as this can’t be guaranteed, maybe one solution is to apply less weight/points to the block count.

Nice one Tim on the creation of TwitBlock. I understand that you’ve had this plunged rapidly into the limelight so I assume, currently, most of the pointing system was based on calcualted guess work. The only way is up.

Your site causes damage to no one. Your site provides -information- to Twitter users, and they use that information to make decisions.

Twitblock helps users to improve their Twitter experience. Keep up the excellent work, and if there’s any way I can help you with Twitblock, please let me know.

I wonder if those complaining have the auto follow function turned on, or use mutual-follow & similar services for kudos/inflating ego purposes, more importantly do they contribute by reporting spam they receive?
