Why I Am Not A Good Twitter User?

I have read many Twitter Tips and enjoyed it, but I could not follow any of. I think I am not a good Twitter user unlike other smart guys but sure I want to be. Well, I don’t say I am bad Twitter user only not good. I try to make people to behave well on Twitter, sorry I don’t try, I only think; but many people, mostly friends (give and take!) suggest me about using Twitter better way. I want to share why I am not a good (but probably modest) Twitter user.

I do not reply Direct Messages (Dms); I mean, mostly I ignore.
I have to clear why I ignore, if you send me a DM to check your newly launch website or recently uploaded Youtube video, sure I will check it and reply too. But if you DM me to click the link to get thousands of followers or dolors, then sure I will never reply or ever care about it.

I post only links.
Something I have to say about it too; it is not 100% right, I post almost links, and most of people don’t like only links about tech news and social media. But many times I post my thoughts also, and any stuff interest me I reply too.

I post too many links.
Sure, I post about 30 thirty links in a day, I try to post what interest me and what is related to tech news and social media. I always try to promote new users who write well and original.

I do not follow peoples, only follow back!
It is also not true, I have followed many great Twitter users, who don’t follow back me and I don’t care only because I respect them. I don’t like to follow first and wait for follow back. I am happy with me.

I am a Robot.
No. Probably not. I post mostly links and can not identify who is spammar, so don’t think I am a Robot, I am always a human.

Again I want to be a good Twitter user.

Yes I am sometimes bewildered by what people say in there. One Direct message I have says that they are here to help me with twitter, but since they don’t follow me, I can’t seek any advice from them. My Followers seem to be leaving, and I’m wondering if its because something I said or perhaps didn’t say. One way or another it doesn’t bother me, I simply appreciate getting links to new content, as you seem to !

	Hi Mike, thanks, perhaps you are right. Twitter is great for discovering new contents. Twitter is lacking something is conversation platform.

	@Pcd2k you have something similar in Twitter experience I think. I don’t care who unfollow me, because if I loss 5 followers in a day, in contrast I get 15 followers.

	I don’t know whether there’s a “good” way to twitter. But I sure enjoy your posts here and on friendfeed. Peace, @ivan_filios Ivan Abrego´s last blog ..Sicily and Palermo: a set on flickr

	Don’t beat yourself up about being a crap Twitterer – you’re a pretty crap blogger as well.

	Dear Pete I fuck Gobbledygook. I know why you hate me so much, keep in mind; you are still living in old days and can not wear me, but I don’t care it, you can go in hell.
