[Bulk Messaging] Limited to messaging 10-12 users in a minute ?!

[Nikolak47]

I'm developing a notifier, and I need to message 500 users, for example. By the Reddit API limitations, it means that I can do it in 9 minutes (60 messages in 1 minute), but after testing it, I concluded that only 10 - 12 users can be messaged in 1 minute, and then an exception is thrown.

Is there any limitations in bulk messaging users, provided by this wrapper ? Can someone clarify this for me ?

Thanks :)

What exception is thrown when this happens? I'm not aware of any limitations that would prevent ~60 messages/min from going through, provided that you're not performing any other queries that would go against the API speed limit.

Rate Limit Exception is thrown. I made sure that I'm not performing any queries related to the Reddit API

How old is the account you're using? Does it have a decent amount of both comment and post karma? Reddit has been known to impose tighter rate limits in certain circumstances, particularly with newer and less-established accounts.
