[twitter-dev] DM rate limit
Just out of curiosity why can't DM's be limited by the hour instead if having this cap of 250/day? I think if this was an option most of the issues expressed by other developers including myself would be resolved.

Re: [twitter-dev] DM rate limit
Any one Twitter account that sends 250 DM's in a 24 hour period is DOIN' IT RONG. DM spamming your followers is JUST NOT OK.

Putting multiple Trending Topics on a tweet with porn links is not OK either, but that doesn't mean bots don't do it. #twittercouldfixthat. ;-) -- http://twitter.com/znmeb http://borasky-research.net A mathematician is a device for turning coffee into theorems. -- Paul Erdős -- Twitter developer documentation and resources: http://dev.twitter.com/doc API updates via Twitter: http://twitter.com/twitterapi Issues/Enhancements Tracker: http://code.google.com/p/twitter-api/issues/list Change your membership to this group: http://groups.google.com/group/twitter-development-talk
[twitter-dev] DM rate limit confusion
I'm a little confused as to the rate limits for DM's. Until recently I thought I was clear but I came across a site that had me asking questions again. To the best of my knowledge a user is restricted to 250 DM's/day (non whitelisted). Is there any further restrictions to that such as only being able to send 100 DM's/hour? The information I just came across is that you can send 100 DM's/hour or up to 1000 DM's/day. This site is claiming to be able to send up to 1000 DM's/day on your behalf so I don't think they have been whitelisted because they claim to be able to be able to let you send up to 1000 DM's/day. Can anyone help clear this up?
