Title: Twitter change helps spammers
Post by: electronicash on April 05, 2017, 05:28:20 AM

twitter decided to remove user names from the 140 character count. This means you can tag up to 50 people without it affecting how long your tweet can be. This sounds great right? Well if you are a spammer then it is amaz-balls! If you are an actual Twitter user then this is terrible. People are now tagging a lot of people in a post to spam them and users are getting flooded with spammy @ mentions which is also drowning out real @ mentions.

Since anyone can tag you, there is not much you can do about this.

received the message in my email. twitter is heavily used here which we kept following each other so we can spam each other, and they just made it best so we can reach out each. :)

I read your post and agree with you I use twitter in daily bases because of my university Need Assignment Help (http://www.assignmentcorp.com) updates their all academic news on twitter and I am so glad to read this "twitter decided to remove user names from the 140 character count. This means you can tag up to 50 people without it affecting how long your tweet can be."

After such the update Twitter has to add the option to choose who can tag you. Coz the update may rly be useful but these spammers are awful

wow I had no idea of the update. That seems interesting they chose such a high number of tags. Do we know the true reasoning behind it? What was the max tags before the switch?

This is the first time I read about this update, but it sounds like it will bring more spam on twitter. When I use twitter I just read tweets from the people I follow and do a retweet if I like what they say.
