That's a weird way to get new followers!
I'm not sure if someone is going to follow someone they don't know, to see what they need help with. :? I mean, it might make more sense to tell people what they need help with, then they decide if they want to follow the person or not? Bit of a weird way of doing things!
That's like me ringing 999 saying ahhhhhhhhhh I have a huge emergancy, but you got to follow my twitter before I tell you where I live and where I'm dying and need help ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.
