That's why i keep on seen error with my twitter...
Yesterday's Twitter glitch (Twitch?) causing users' follower/followee lists to be trimmed for them appears to be resolved.
Twitter founder Biz Stone attributed the event to an error during a database upgrade. A post yesterday is time-stamped 12:01 Pacific, suggesting the error was fixed within about 12 hours. It would take longer, until today probably, to return actual numbers to normal on user accounts.
Stone reiterated on the blog the error was not caused by Twitter's ongoing spam-fighting efforts, which are described as being limited to placing new rules on accounts so that thousands of profiles can't be created and so that there is a limit to the number of people an account can follow in specific period of time.
Twitter labels these as "aggressive followers" but doesn't delete accounts automatically en masse, said Stone.
