Why does my twitter Application access-level is Read-only? and how can I change that?

Question

At the bottom of the details page There's the (Your access token) Section, the access level there is read only.

I'm trying to make an application that makes me follow all the users who log in to my site using twitter, I'm successfully making the users follow me, but I'm not able to follow the users, any idea why is that, and how can I change the access level of my own twitter account?
