Tweetsum kindly provides a score that, while not foolproof, is nevertheless useful. <br /><br />Zero is usually a good score, but also can be indicate a brand-new account opened just to scam or spam. From Tweetsum, I can easily see recent tweets and replies and assess whether the account is used by a real person I care to follow, or just drag over to the Ignore column. I don't even usually bother with blocking. <br /><br />Because I don't usually have to see such gunk, I'm so glad you were curious enough to find out and report on it for me and satisfy any remaining prurient interest I might have had!Kimmhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15936533089978498755noreply@blogger.com
