HOWEVER, at this very moment, Monday May 10th at 1:25pm EST, my current following and follower count is 0 and 0. A lot of people on my timeline are experiencing the same thing and tweeting about it. Twitter has its share of bugs. Glitches like this happen from time to time, and in a few hours, things will be back to normal. If your account was restored but reads 0/0 following and followers, this will pass.

Twitter does have a help ticket system in there somewhere, so feel free to let them know what’s up. In my experience, when stuff like this happens, you’re not the only one, which means that the folks at Twitter are scrambling to fix the problem which will take them a few hours or so.

I don’t really know what happened. It was reported as some kind of mistake (as a few other people also had their accounts suspended), and Twitter reinstated my account nine hours later:

But those were the longest nine hours of my life!!!
