yeah, looks like they are trying to catch the bots with this:

https://www.tumblr.com/tagged/rate-limit-exceeded

Martin, do you think, it would be possible to add some check, so when this error occurs, the TJ stop hammering Tumblr with current task?

yes that could be a good addition!

But what i dont really understand is, why that happens at "non-proxified" state. Which part of TJ is using the accounts non-proxified? (except that profile url open now, which i was using max. 10x)

I'll add checks for the rate limiting.

Also, the "10 fails in a row" should kick in and stop you hammering the server. But would be best not to rely on the 10 fails

Just tested
  • follow
    like
    reblog
    stats
    post image
    post link
    unfollow
    mass follow
    mass like
    mass reblog
and all those are using the proxy correctly (nothing through the local IP)

So there does not appear to be local IP leakage, it isn't that

What is the minimum you have used TumJazz for on an account that was subsequently banned.

For example, if a brand new account was created.

You followed 10 users
You posted 5 images

then banned.


I can then go through all headers / requests made line by line and ensure tumblr hasn't changed anything sneakily that has been missed and may possibly be used to ID the accounts.


That said, I don't think it is as clean cut as that, as all my testing accounts are still working. But then I only use them for testing and not actually promoting anything

what examples happens when this is triggered? Does anyone have an account that is "rate limited" I can log into and see how it works in order to detect

From 1 week fresh accounts to old 5-6 month accs, that survives tumblr ban waves
Accs do only 3 things: following, rebloging, unfollowing.
