>Nonsense. Twitting a person is simply not reading their messages. It is nothing other than a filter. The person generally does not even know they have been twitted so how could it cause any pain or suffering? It is not any response at all - unlike negative responses or comments. If it causes any pain or suffering, then that person has an unrealistic and unhealthy view of online participation and should seek counseling.

We have different views on the topic. IMO, the twit means that someone dislike the other person and doesn't want to read the other person messages. Simple as that. But would the twitted person will try to figure out the reasons for dislike? I would guess it's quite natural.
