Nudges gone wild!! Nudges multiplying uncontrollably.
Nudge problem: This morning my husband sent me a nudge. Something went wrong, and I got 160 nudge messages on my cell phone! What happened?
I had to turn off cell phone notification from Twitter to stop the nudges. I'm afraid to turn it back on.

Inappropriate?I get charged for text messages and it is unacceptable that Twitter is sending so many texts for no reason.
I’m frustrated

Hi Chris. Are you also getting nudges like ottergirl above?
Or are you getting updates from a lot of the people you follow?
If it's the latter, you can reduce the text messages that you receive by going to http://twitter.com/friends (login required) and setting device updates to OFF for people you don't want to hear from via sms.
Or you can go to http://twitter.com/devices and choose "Direct Messages" only so that you only receive direct messages and not regular updates or replies. -
Inappropriate?I tried replying to the email that was sent about this problem but I suppose now that didn't work since it said "noreply" in the sender's address.
Anyway, I'm getting the same issue that ottergirl is. I turned off device updates for now, but would prefer to have them on.
Seems like Twitter should check to see if you've been nudged recently and rate limit the number of text messages it sends, especially if the same person is doing the nudging.
But the main problem is that I was receiving multiple (5 or 6?) SMS messages per nudge. Very annoying.
