Delays and Duplicates make an unhappy Client...

Hi there,

We're using a Feed Tweet Bot on a Feedburner RSS feed. As you can see from the twitter account: http://www.twitter.com/travelb there are multiple repetitions being posted (usually 2 posts) and often the system is taking hours to update. This was a test with one client before we started rolling out to others but its not going so well... any ideas why this is happening?

Thanks,

Adam

    Adam,

    The duplicates are happening because bit.ly is giving different urls, thus our system sees they are different tweets and posts it. I will investigate the root issue soon and report back to you.

    The delays are likely related to feed timeouts, we are working to handle more capacity, but this is a deep issue and will likely take a week or so to fix.

    Hi Adam,

    It seems your feed bot isn't double posting anymore so I'm going to close this ticket for now.

    Please reopen if you still have issues.

    Thanks,
    Andy

    Hi Andy - Please reopen if you can as it is still happening. Indeed I've got the same problem with a newly created bot posting to:
