This type of requirement is a solid reason for me to avoid DO rather than the non-specific issue that the OP ran into. I don't use twitter or facebook, and the reason that I've considered DO was to host a blog and company website. So if they were to bring me down for unknown reasons, I wouldn't be able to pass their extraneous id requirements. As a result, they are off of my consideration list. From some other comments in this thread, it sounds like Linode is the better way to go.
