@LichWeatherBot I need somewhere to post a navigational tweet that people will use to find their way around my moments as a reply, so it won't appear on my profile page, and where it won't bother anybody.

The above tweet is from an automated bot.

@LichWeatherBot The description says that replies aren't being monitored. The OP's tweet is a weather report from a few months ago, so probably hardly anybody will look at it, and I won't be disrupting an ongoing conversation.

But if I have stepped on somebody's toes in some way, sorry.

@LichWeatherBot If anybody ever find his way over to this virtual equivalent of an abandoned rail hub and wonders about such things, this

was the last tweet I ever posted to my profile page by hand.

@LichWeatherBot A very brief active engagement - I got locked out a lot because trolls keep false flagging my tweets, got tired of that and quit.

Probably, by the time anybody sees this (other than me), my account will just be used for update notification.

@LichWeatherBot I'm going to run RSS feeds through IFTTT, so my blog posts will be tweeted. I'm sure trolls will still drop by to share their love, but I won't be reading it and won't care.

I'm going to cut all links to Twitter.

@LichWeatherBot This company seems to be in love with its trolls, so this is the only kind of engagement with this platform that makes sense to a lot of us, because the incentives we're been given push us that way.

@LichWeatherBot We speak up and we get silenced. Before, we had to wait days or weeks to get our accounts unlocked. Now, I'm told that if one knows what Gefilte Fish tastes like, that the staff won't even look at one's appeal. They'll just suspend one's account.

@LichWeatherBot One these terms, what else can I do but say "the trolls have won, because Twitter was on their side from the beginning," give up and walk away?

@LichWeatherBot I guess I'm not the only person to come to that conclusion. Not even close.

Hope Twitter cleans up its act. If we ever get to the point at which software is doing all of the posting, who is going to look at the ads on a site as dry as that?
