Members have discussed strategies for restoring a Twitter account that has been banned and the challenges faced when trying to create new accounts after a ban. Key suggestions include:
- Attempting to set up a new account from a different IP address to avoid automatic deletion by Twitter's systems.
- Ensuring compliance with Twitter's terms of service to avoid future bans.
- Considering the use of entirely new account details (e.g., email, phone number, and screen name) when creating a new account.
- Sharing experiences about the time it takes for Twitter to potentially restore an account on its own, with some users noting periods as long as six months.
- Discussing the arbitrary nature of some account suspensions and the importance of appealing such decisions, though success is not guaranteed.
While there is no direct line to Twitter support mentioned, members have been encouraged to exchange private messages for potential contacts within Twitter support. The conversation underscores the importance of understanding and complying with Twitter's policies to maintain account access.
