10 API Requests Per Hour? I'm Done

I'm sorry, but 10 API requests per hour? I'm done with Twitter until this gets straightened out. 70 was reasonable; 30 was bearable. 10? 10 is unusable. I'm supposed to have conversations when I can only respond to people with a 6 minute delay? Perhaps Pownce is a better alternative.

I’m done with Twitter's issues.

Pownce and Twitter are different species. Pownce is a place to share stuff with your friends, while Twitter is a place to interact on a consistent basis (even if they are rate limiting).

The Twitter rate limit status is currently at 20 requests per hour now. It went up to 50, but they had some issues and had to bring it back down to 20. It's frustrating.
