How to destroy reputation on Twitter?

One of the great merits of Twitter is that your followers can communicate directly with you.

Here are some examples of misuse of Twitter:

  • Andrew Snook,Piranha Golf USA, CEO: https://twitter.com/andrew_snook. Here I also miss re-tweeting and active participation in community life. Plus background design is missing… :( 
  • Egan Golf: https://twitter.com/EganGolf
  • Bridgestone Golf: https://twitter.com/BoomClub
  • Golfsmith HQ: https://twitter.com/GolfsmithHQ
  • Yonex Golf: https://twitter.com/yonex_golf
  • TaylorMade Golf (official Twitter account): https://twitter.com/taylormadegc – they have 3270 followers who have no opportunity to ask questions from TaylorMade Golf. It is a missed opportunity from one, and from the other side frustration…
  • Nike Golf: https://twitter.com/nikegolf
  • Troon Golf: https://twitter.com/troongolf
