Here are 5 ways in which your behavior with other twitter users will have a positive impact on how you are perceived and how quickly you are accepted.
'Actively' Listen
To engage in any conversation you must first 'actively' listen to what it is people are talking about.

Respond Accordingly
When the opportunity presents itself and you have something of value to add to any conversation make your comments in a polite way. At this point you simply listen further to the ongoing conversation and perhaps respond accordingly to any response your comment may have received

Tweet Engagingly
Do make the attempt to make your comments an invitation for anybody to respond to since this shows you have an interest in what 'everybody' thinks. Give thought to what it is you say so that it may be thought provoking enough to motivate even the 'wall flowers' to respond.

Maintain Relevancy
As mentioned earlier keep your tweets relevant to the ongoing discussion and do not attempt to dramatically alter the direction for the sake of any self-promoting.

Reflect Sincerity
If you indicate or promise anything always follow-up otherwise your word is worthless as will be your reputation. This is especially true and important if you use twitter for business since a lack of follow-up will only serve to tarnish your professional image as well!
