Also running Thesis and using Tweetmeme. I consider dropping it mainly because of site performance issues as it takes down performance quite considerably.

Your reasons icing on that already bad cake for me, so I guess time has come to drop this plugin now.

I just realized that I have no such tweet-this-post button since I removed my Sexy Bookmarks plugin long time ago. I got to find an alternative for it. Time to search on WP plugins directory. Thanks for reminding me with this post John.

I’m not a tweeter. That whole spiel did nothing but confused the shit out of me. I get it, no tweetmeme use your name, but come on. Somewhere along the line I have to stop letting people into my world. Tweeter for me is an invasion of privacy brought on by ourselves and our own doing. I could be seriously wrong, but I doubt it. I’m being partially bias, given the fact that I’ve never took the time to read really anyones tweets aside from what’s expressed over the television networks. The thing is that every time I get one of those chance’s(viewing a tv shout out about a celebrity tweet) it’s always pointless jibber jabber. Who cares what you like to buy at Publix, or what your having for dinner. LMAO We’re all going selfishly bonkers and we won’t realize it until we’ve already been labled pre-madonnas. I used to think this was just a women thing, but like Bob Dylan used to say, ” The Times They Are A Changing.”

@Nick Halstead,

Personally Nick, i would (will) try this plugin solely based on this comment. My entire adult life has been direct sales/customer service, and you do a mighty fine job indeed.

@DiTesco, I don't get half as annoyed as I use to about thins so it might be tough to do a weekly rant these days. I go through my bouts haha.

@John Sullivan, very true man. It's about the only time you really ever find out who the real ones are.

@Anne, there’s really no sense in having a million of them. You need to pick which you feel is best for you and your community

Thank you for commenting.

@Tycoon blogger @promote your blog, if I don't figure out what the deal is with Twittley assigning my Blog posts to other sites here mighty quick I will be losing Twittley even faster.

I can’t remember how long this really took, it couldn’t have been that bad.

That sucks. I think you and I should do a series of “weekly sucks”, lol to spread the word about this type of issues. The lack of feedback is what boggles me more as I think that they should be quick on responding to queries. To date, I still do not have any issues with TweetMeme and I have rectified the code as you suggested. We’ll see

“Big thanks to Alexa for getting the issue with our tanning salon resolved.”

For a moment I thought your retweeting problem connects with Alexa. But I think your really meant Alex, the guy who replied to your issue.

Anyways, retweeting now. I can see you are now back to Twittley.

Hi John,

I am the Founder of TweetMeme and this post was only just brought to my attention, we take support very seriously and wanted to make sure that everything you have found is resolved already or if not will get fixed in our next release.

We serve over 120 million buttons every day and so there always a few edge cases – but we strive to fix everything that gets reported.

I looked at http://www.mmapunk.com/brock-lesnar-out-of-ufc-108-with-mono/ – and I was able to retweet the story myself – do you know when this was a problem? I know when we first launched the new pop-up system we had an issue with it wrongly thinking the link was wrong.

The blacklist problem seems to have been resolved – we are not sure why it was blacklisted in the first place, but we do use Google Spam API – which may have inadvertently listed you? Please do tell us immediately if you see this again.

The last issue about the wrong @[name] was also a bug on our part some time ago – if this is still a problem please do send me an email.

I hope you continue to promote our button – we are still the only site that accurately keeps track of the retweets, that has full support for RSS feeds, we also have a Mobile version of our button for iPhone, Blackberry + Android.

Thanks,

Nick Halstead
CEO & Founder, TweetMeme
