Waiting indefinately..

Post by havingissues »

So I got the TwitterBot to work for 2 accounts.
When I added 2 more, so 4 total. Not only does it not work on the 2 new accounts, but the old 2 aren't working anymore either.

For all 4 accounts now it's stuck on the "Waiting..." Phase.

Sorry I should have clarified. I was getting that error but that account never worked to begin with.
I was going slow, and didn't hit any limits because I couldn't get the account going to begin with.

Now it's just cycling through with this error:

2 of the 4 accounts work fine.
2 of the 4 are giving problems. I tried regenerating the API keys.

The update fixed that problem. Now the Twitter application is not letting me "perform write actions"
I tried making a new Twitter app but it won't authenticate

so you hit twitter too hard too fast for too long, they blocked you.
I tried making a new Twitter app but it won't authenticate

Please perform the following:

delete existing logs
HELP > LOGS > VIEW
delete all files in the folder that opens


Perform the action:
***
authorise your account to the new API
***

PLEASE NOTE: Do not perform other actions at the same time. Only use one thread. Do not run any actions after this action.


Then submit logs:
HELP > LOGS > SUBMIT

and let me know the LOGS ID (just the number part is sufficient)




Regards,
Martin

Ok I got it to work. Thank-you so much! I have a couple of quick questions:

a) What do you recommend the wait time to not get banned? I have it on 45 seconds minimum now.

b) What's the option "Unique items per account" do for following people?

c) If I follow the followers of an account, then unfollow them, how do I go back and follow the rest of that user's followers without refollowing the same people from before? Like "cycle through"?
