I’ve been a user for 16 years, since their first day of public signups. I login every day and use twitter for hours every day. I tweet more than is shown on my account (I delete tweets often).

Here’s the message they sent me:

“Hello, The user handle associated with account @Sports will be affiliated with X Corp. Accordingly, your user handle will be changed to a new user handle.
