it's that way, but twitter limits their API to 300 posts/user/3hours, and some power users hit the limit
"""
there's a little star on the documentation saying that an app can only create 300 Tweets per user or per app for every 3 hours.
I believe that the influx caused a lot of new power users from twitter, that post a lot, to come over and that's now causing the crossposter to hit the limit.
If a real person (not a bot) can tweet more than a 100 tweets per hour (i.e. 1 tweet every 36 seconds on avg) I would call them mentally ill, not power users.
