    This isn’t a functionality that is currently available through Twitter.

        LET US BE ALLOWED TO DELETE @MENTION COMMENTS! THIS ISN'T FAIR!

      • Anonymous commented  ·   ·  Flag as inappropriate

        Please ....Its not for rude comments! Its because you thought you were cute till someone posted the truth ! Very annoying! If u post it .....own it!

      • F M F M commented  ·   ·  Flag as inappropriate

        I'm hating twitter right now!
        We need to delete these harmful mentions!

      • Elysse Elysse commented  ·   ·  Flag as inappropriate

        I really do wish there was a way to get rid of bad mentions!

      • Andrew ScaifeAndrew Scaife commented  ·   ·  Flag as inappropriate

        If you get spammy messages, click on their username to bring the account up on the panel. Click on the 'Report Spammer' link which will remove their posts from your Twitter timeline, doesn't report it from your Hootsuite stream for some reason but no-one should be able to see it on Twitter at least!

      • DanielaDaniela commented  ·   ·  Flag as inappropriate

        I agree! 'cause even if i delete the tweet that the person replied to, or if i change my username, my account is still linked to that tweet!

      • Daniel LimaDaniel Lima commented  ·   ·  Flag as inappropriate

        Thats outrageous...
        Besides the fact I want to delete spam from my Mentions and also an abusive comment from a fellow I don't even know..., To make it worse I have an Android app called Tweeter for LG which is considering the tweets in "mentions" as a new tweet constantly and reminding me everyday of both the spam tweet and the abusive comment in mentions ..
        WHY doesn't the tweeter people include a "delete" buttom.
        I think they are parte of the NWO linked up with the bankers and the social-darwinian niilists who want to make people everyday dumber and more conformed with a "control-oppressive" society ruled by Lucifer worshipers...
        Anyways....

        I've been abused today and as there is no way of taking down this insult from a complete stranger I am leaving Twitter. Not becuase of the small minded individual but because Twitter couldn't care less....you've lost another user

      • Kim BruzeauKim Bruzeau commented  ·   ·  Flag as inappropriate

        I also don't think this is an appropriate response. Many of these @mentions are bullying. With all the publicity going on right now with bullying and it's negative affects one would think Twitter would take a a stronger stance. I received 2 days worth of harassing mentions. Please take those more serious. Your blanket answer Danielle as a representative os Twitter, makes it sound as though the company could care less.

        If Twitter will not enable users to delete a spammer mention, could not HootSuite create a "hide" function at least? This way the mentions are not deleted, but at least hidden from view for HootSuite users.

      • ZeoZeo commented  ·   ·  Flag as inappropriate

        Please add this feature I'm getting a lot of hate and abusive tweets from some people and don't want them showing up

        they really do need to find away where people can get rid of inappropriate things people say out their mentions/timeline . I tried blocking , all it does was block that person , but their mention is STILLL there .

      • DebDeb commented  ·   ·  Flag as inappropriate

        Received a hacker link. It must be deleted. Need this feature. Same as Phil B. comment already posted.

      • Phil BPhil B commented  ·   ·  Flag as inappropriate

        A spammer 'mentioned' me with a link to a malware website. I'd like to be able to delete a mention that refers to me...

      • Jack HagerJack Hager commented  ·   ·  Flag as inappropriate

        If this continues and there is no way to get rid of it displaying I will have to go another route...don't want others (much less me) exposed to the crap

      • @storywoman@storywoman commented  ·   ·  Flag as inappropriate

        I too want to remove an unsolicited mention of my account name that directs people to a site I don't want associated with my name! I should be able to remove it.

      • mplungjanmplungjan commented  ·   ·  Flag as inappropriate

        I want this too. Especially when the mention twitter has an animated gif as icon!

      • Annie BanannieAnnie Banannie commented  ·   ·  Flag as inappropriate

        Yes, I completely agree! Otherwise the spammers win. I have to look at that message for days until other @ mentions cover it up. This is very important to me! Thanks.
