Okay – I’m closing comments now – I really don’t want people dropping comments here just trying to promote their websites. If you have a real problem with Twitter Karma, just email me.

Leaving comments about Twitter Karma on other blog entries will just get deleted. Please don’t waste my time.

I guess I’m kinda late. I just recently found out about this (today) via two other websites who linked to it. I absolutely love it. Keep up the great work, and I look forward to any of the modifications or enhancements that you may perform on it in the future.

Steve: Yes, for people with a large number of Twitter friends and followers, it is fairly normal to exhaust your hourly Twitter API rate limit, after which point applications like Twitter Karma will no longer be able to make requests on your behalf until the hour expires.

I might get motivated to request the user’s remaining API requests for the hour and immediately “fail” if you wouldn’t have enough to fetch your data — but, for now, we just live with what we’ve got. It’s easy to wait an hour and reload.

Hi, great application! I do have a question: Is it the norm to be unable to get to my account sometimes on Karma? Meaning I login and the screen changes to all 0’s no followers, etc.
Is it just too busy, or am I needing to do something else?
Thanks,
Steve Simon

kris: Don’t expect bulk operations of more than 80 or so people to work. Or, rather, only expect the first 80 or so to work and the rest to be ignored. This is a function of the Twitter API rate limit; once Twitter Karma hits it, it stops.

how long should the bulk unfollow take? i’ve used this tool before to bulk unfollow like 15-20 people and it worked like a champ. I’ve tried now to bulk unfollow about 300 people and it doesnt appear to work.

I’ve tried it 2 or 3 times over the last couple of days, i get the new pop up you added saying it is being processed but when i log into twitter they are all still there…

Damn I wasn’t expecting a reply back so soon, so I posted another comment. You have answered my question perfectly and sorry for all the comments. You beat me to the punch.

Hi Again

Just wanted to say that I must retract my previous comment at 2:56 p.m. This time when I used the unfollow it did i work. It just doesn’t give you an indication that it has completed its task. The unfollow button when you click on it gets a blue border around it to show that it has been clicked this remains on the button forever as if it is still doing its thing. None of the unfollows disappear until you go completely out of the program then come back in as with Twitter.

Great program however if at all possible can something be done to show that the program has finished the task. The way it is now you don’t know when to go out of the program if it is to early nothing happens as in my previous attempts.

Anyway thanks for a terrific program.
