That got me banned a couple of weeks ago. I wrote an application that recommended an event to the user once he\she would tweet "I am bored". I made the mistake by giving providing a fall back once the location could not be determined. This lead to ~40 tweets with identical texts. Twitter quickly pulled out the banhammer.

Not to spam, but here is a write-up if there is an interest in what and how it happened: https://hackernoon.com/how-i-got-myself-banned-on-twitter-43...

Any chance of sharing/providing the source code of the listener bot that auto responds?

The listener is a pretty much off the shelf Tweepy listener writing into a Redis queue. For the recommendation is comes via an API where I can't share the code.
