   Hi All,

   I'm using twitter tools only to auto-post all tweets (including RT's) from a twitter bot I made to follow this #WSOPPB

   I accomplished this by adjusting this line to use the include_rts

   Now the bot (@wsoppokerbot) picks up these tweets and RT's as is without adding the users' name to the front however when they are posted to the blog longer tweets approaching 140 chars are then truncated. I'm using the P2 theme at first I thought that might have something to do with it but that doesn't seem to be the case.

   You can view the site here -- wsoppokerblog.com

   I'm not sure why this is happening really... I dug into the twitter-tools.php file further but I got stuck. Thought it might have to do with this trim_add_elipses function but that seems to only do work on the title and not the post_content -- Looking at the posts table in the db the post_content is truncated and ends with " ..." so there's gotta be another function in there doing the chop chip but my luck at finding it so far hasn't been so good. Hoping anyone out there might be able to help me find the solution here. Thanks in advance!

   realized I forgot to put that line in the post:

   // -- edited to include retweets --
   define('AKTT_API_USER_TIMELINE', 'http://api.twitter.com/1/statuses/user_timeline.json?include_rts=true');
