Hi richard, I know what you are referring to. Sometimes you find that a reply has been sent to your intended recipient but also to someone else that you weren't expecting. I think I've finally figured out why this happens. The problem is that pressing the right arrow key runs a command to quickly add other usernames to a reply without moving to the edit field. If there is a conversation between many users that you wish to reply to, you can press right arrow on each tweet from someone in the group, then press enter on the last one to start writing your reply. It's very easy to accidentally bump that key while doing other things, so when you do begin to write a reply, it has been addressed to one or two random people already. This doesn't happen to me as often as it used to. I've just learned to read the message once to make sure other usernames aren't in there. I think I'll write to the author and request the ability to modify the shortcuts, since I think mapping this command to the right arrow was a bad idea.
Hopefully my explanation makes some sense. I'm working off of less than three hours of sleep this morning. LOL. Have a good one.

Whenever I attempt to reply to a tweet by pressing enter while focused on a particular tweet, I end up replying to a completely different user. Why is this happening, and is there a way to fix it? Thanks for any help anyone can give. On Jul 18, 2011, at 12:27 PM, Zachary Kline wrote: > Dear Richard, > Can you not see any tweets by this user, that is, are they protected?
