Had a big problem with this for awhile and then all was good until a couple of days ago.
Know that I am not breaking any rules.
Suspended 3 times since the 21st.
Have just about had it - ready to quit contesting where Twitter is involved.
Yes i have checked Twitter apps I am using and it's all good.
Sending some personal tweets daily.
At this point I do not see any answers to fix this.
 
jalapenomama - 3 suspensions in 5 days?

Is it possible that you are being reported by a person/people you have angered/made jealous?

Or it's about something other [politics maybe] than sweepstakes?

Also, certain words will get you banned, so it could literally be "Was it something I said?"

Either way, not much you can do about it since twitter only does a cursory check & tends to believe the complainers/reporters

Thanks for your reply.

No do not think I angered anyone.
I'm careful about following Twitter rules.
Someone thought the suspensions were because I do primarily giveaway tweets.

Here is the reply I get from Twitter -
Your account appears to have exhibited automated behavior that violates the Twitter Rules.

Just don't know what to think about this anymore.
 
Also, certain words will get you banned, so it could literally be "Was it something I said?"

Which type of words?
 
I had this happen to me too. I don't even use Twitter for anything non-contest related. I ended up giving up on Twitter for contests myself.
 
I have decided it is not anything I am doing.
Coming from blog tweets.
If I get a suspension I move that giveaway to one time entry.
Thank you all for your replies.
We will see.

Ah yes - BLOGS - I rarely enter them so that never occurred to me!

Any reason for that - just curious.

I just didn't consider it might be them {a BLOG} not you causing you to be banned

IMO BLOG promos are not at the level of regular [sponsor] promos, since they don't *seem* to have to follow Federal/State laws that govern sweepstakes & contests so I avoid them

Me too! Not sure but both times I had just entered the Amazon daily giveaways? Coincidence? IDK. Had to reset my password to get back on.
