We're using the actual definition of "suspended" not Twitter's definition which means "banned." He's locked out of his account until he deletes the offending tweet, then usually a countdown starts before he can start tweeting again.
And how creepy is their policy? You have to delete the tweet and acknowledge that it broke their rules. It's a game of dominance.
Most sites ban you for a period and delete the offending material that got you banned. You don't have to agree with it, just abide by it if you want to post again. Forcing you to allocute your guilt is some psychologically abusive shit.
Never run afoul of mods. I've seen content that they've deleted (much more rarely than reddit though). That's standard practice across the internet.
Are you saying that they ban you and then force you to delete the posts they don't like yourself and admit that you broke the rules prior to letting you post again? I've never heard of that anywhere but Twitter.
Imp once brought that up as an accusation against the mods here, whacky fellow that he is he definitely falls afoul of them on occasion, and when confronted in posts about it, the mods confirmed that yes, that was their policy here: They hid, not deleted, the posts, and would make the person delete them instead, if they wanted their tempban to be abridged or shortened.

...You do realize that the mods here do that too... Right? It's one of the biggest complaints about this place, really.

Ahh, I didn't realize that. Fuck twitter.
