Too Much PORN or SPAM in your Twitter World?

How to Report PORN and SPAM on Twitter

 Are you sick and tired of going into your followers section just to be blinded by nakedness all around you?  Okay, maybe I am exaggerating a tad and being a bit dramatic; but some of the photos we at http://kritterkommunity.com have stumbled across are so startling that they could make even Dirk Diggler blush.

 What to do besides just block the Porn Star in training? Well, Twitter has prepared for these intrusive characters and has set up a specific place to report the Porn Star wantabees.  Whatever you do, DO NOT click on the avatar and continue to explore the unknown….remember, curiosity killed da cat!   By continuing to click around, you could get zapped with an awful virus if you are not properly protected (MOL no pun intended there :<)

What you should do is first jot down their user name and immediately block them.  Next go to your profile and click on the HELP tab at the top of your page.  Continue as follows:

 This will take you to a short form to submit with the user name you jotted down.  It is a good idea to report PORN or SPAM because many times the person comes back immediately with a new avatar or a changed screen name in an attempt to follow you and you eventually follow them. By reporting the invader, you are not only helping yourself but also others who could be next on their hit list. 

 SPAM can be reported the same way OR even easier…….follow @Spam on Twitter and next time you need to report a Spammer, simply send @Spam a DM with the information.

I hope these tips were helpful in keeping your Tweeting experience fun and valuable! MEOW!
