also just realised i am no longer subscribed to many of the people i was subscribed to originally. I saw another post in a room where someone was ranting about this, i didn't have many followers but to lose them overnight is a bit bizarre? - Wayne Brewin

Ye, lots of people but not myself. See shttp://getsatisfaction.com/twitter... - Andy Roberts

I lost about 2/3 followers and 1/3 following - hope they get it fixed - Eric Gehler

Not personally, but kevin gianni has been saying the same thing - i think it was more than half, more like three quarters - Frann Leach

Yes, I have experienced the same problem. Exactly half of the original number... very odd indeed. - Sam Sotiropoulos

this was going on last night, it was twitterpause (menopause) counts down, back up, back down, back up, hot cold & crankie - JuneM

I lost followers and following. I commented on a rant blog myself. - Wendy J. Roan

I lost about 30. I thought it was strange that so many would stop following at the same time. Good to know it wasn't do to me not providing quality content. Sucks to think Twitter caused this. They probably won't realize it for days. - Craig Eubanks

The worst thing is that I (you) have to subscribe to them again... one by one - e521

Twitter is suppose to be fixing this and will restore all followers except known spammers. - Karen Kramer

Thanks Andy & Pelle for the web links. Guess we just have to wait some time to see if they restore it. - Wayne Brewin

Yeah, I lost Ed Dale during the latest update. :( - Gerald Williams

What kind of worse things would twitter have to do before people finally abandon it? - Andy Roberts

Twitter are on it and do plan to restore all followers. I don't think this should deterr people from using Twitter, though. Every new idea has it's bugs and gremlins and this is no different. How soon people forget what a sludge the internet used to be 12 or so years ago...:o) - Peter Horsman from twhirl
