 * Hello, I have a failed 429 http requests constantly going through from the plugin
   that is taking up some of the memory on my server. Here is a screenshot of the
   failed request: [https://i.imgur.com/HJSfvdp.jpg](https://i.imgur.com/HJSfvdp.jpg)
 * Do you know what this is or how I could fix it? I have the free version and it
   is set up to tweet once a day, it works fine. This failed requested starts as
   soon as I activate the plugin.

 * Hi walvinmedia,
 * Your 429 HTTP request means
    **429 Too Many Requests** The user has sent too 
   many requests in a given amount of time. Intended for use with rate limiting 
   schemes.
 * You can find more details about that here:
