Link Initiated! Please complete sign in to associate this service with your existing account. You will only have to do this once

This is not an error, but a standard response when a client attempts to use the 'Sign In With Twitter' button on the client login page, where they have not yet linked their account. The client will need to login with their client area email address and password to successfully link their Twitter account to it. Clients can connect their accounts to Twitter at any time via this method or on the 'Security Settings' page inside the client area when logged in.

Link Initiated! Please complete the registration form below

Similar to the above message, this is not an error but happens when a client uses the 'Sign Up with Twitter' button on the registration form. This will only fetch the users first and last name from Twitter as well as their email address if their settings allow it, so the user must complete the registration form to complete signing up.
