		<description>Just from your screen shot I see a bunch of those spammers who were following me. I never followed them back, so I was out of their spamming loop. Except for bamazizi--and I know that he has been pretty vocal that he is not a spammer when I see his tweets.</description>

		<description>So, if enough people complain about you, then you could potentially get banned?  What if a whole group of people decide that they just don't like you and report you, then you would get banned because of a BS cult that has something against you?!

		<description>You call "Twitter Blacklist" a public service? Please give me a break. They themselves state that they a banning "spammers and obnoxious people" and apparently they are judge and jury for determining what is an obnoxious person. They are behaving exactly like the jackbooted thugs that "run" things over at Wikipedia. More Web 2.0 not-so-benevolent dictators who will impose their skewed values on the rest of us. No thanks. Let people act like adults and block who they want. We don't need these hyperactive do-gooders determining who is not acting appropriately.</description>

		<description>I guess their should be an entire list. Besides that if it could have a search option through which one can find out which twitter users are blacklisted it would make it a killer tool. As it it will help us to know more about the person who sends us a request to follow. What do you think Erick?</description>
