:Hey Beej! Sorry for the incredibly delayed reply, I've been lazy. I believe I've fixed the twitter bots now; originally it was a caching problem but now I believe I've fixed it. If there's any more problems, don't hesitate to shout! --[[User:Beau|Beau]] 11:23, 9 January 2011 (UTC) |

hi Beau, i'm thankful for your theiphonewiki twitter bot :) is it a known issue that it'll often post duplicates and updates out of order? --Beej 23:39, 28 December 2010 (UTC)

- Hi. There are still duplicates. Like this minor change I made that resulted in two tweets. Here the links to the tweets: [1] [2] As you can see they show both the same edit (/wiki/index.php?title=Cmw&diff=18275&oldid=prev) but once with domain http://www.theiphonewiki.com/ and one with http://theiphonewiki.com/. It would be great if you could fix that. -- http 19:29, 29 May 2011 (UTC)
