I didn't tweet that just now. Maybe an hour ago.

Look at the time of the tweet, I just made that. First you blame me for this then you saying I don't know how to tweet?!?

Fine, this is all my fault. I give up. I'm too dumb to use twitter.
 
It's cached because of your tweet.
 
I removed the plugin files entirely from the server.
 
Link to nba forum.



As it shows in twitter app:

Maybe clear your browser cache.

I didn't have to.
 
It only does spam for my tweets if I tweet a URL you already have tweeted.
 
The tweets embeded in threads are in iframes. The iframe source is twitter's servers. They format the tweet and render into the iframe so it shows here.

When they see a link in the tweet, like www.sportstwo.com, their server fetches the html at that URL and saves it on their hard disk. They show that HTML in the tweet iframe.

Since the tapatalk plugin was basically first thing in the HTML, that's what twitter shows in the iframe - the ad.

The tapatalk plugin is gone from the HTML. I showed you that a few times here.

The twitter server fetched the HTML an hour ago before I took out the tapatalk plugin. That HTML has the plugin ad in it. So that's why we still see ads for URLs you posted already.

The reason they fetch the HTML and store it on the hard dive is that if there are 50 people viewing this thread, there are 50 iframes (one in each person's browser). Rather than fetch the HTML from the link in the tweet 50 times (a load on the S2 server), they share the one time fetched version 50 times.
 
When I load www.sportstwo.com and look at the HTML, I see tapatalk appears twice. Here's why:

The plugin isn't in the HTML anymore.
