Or maybe someone misclicked. Headline is sensationalist, he could simply create a new twitter account. I don't see how this affects him attending the conference

  Right, the ban only covers following the conference online. Which is why I mentioned the verb in the title. But it also might be their way of saying "also pls do not attend again, we do not want ya".

    If you care about the content of the conference, and/or you like to talk with some of the recurring participants, you could go to the conference next time and confront the organizers directly, since they won't let you do it online. But in terms of feeling rejected for unknown reasons, I'd let it slide. The reactions you describe (twitter blocking, "we don't have time to answer" emails) are immature, so expecting more from them is naive. Since they haven't said "please don't attend again", don't interpret it that way. Don't reward people for communicating this poorly. If you can buy a ticket in your name, and you want to go, go. :-)

      After such juvenile behaviour, why should he give them any of his money?

        Perhaps so he can network with people he cares about, and ignore them?

  Do you create multiple email accounts because idiots send one to spam or do you just stop talking to them? I'd guess not unless money was involved. Personally I'd just stop supporting them by going to the conferences and tell everyone why.
