Steam module messages throttled

[geominorai]

The interface the MessageBot extension has been using seems to have been throttled by Valve significantly now and messages only get sent to 1-2 people and the rest never get it.

Yeah, we're already onto it on it as you can see in the latest commits to MessageBot. There's a limit on how many messages can be sent in a certain time frame. Unfortunately the method we use to send the messages just silently fails which made it somewhat hard to figure out why and when it happens. For now the solution is to throttle the number of messages we send per second via MessageBot. We found out that limited accounts hit that limit earlier. Officially they aren't supposed to be able to send messages this way. Upgrading it is advised if yours is limited. There's no new release yet but we try to get it out asap, there will be a post in CallAdmin's thread on the forums with more information when it happens so you might want to subscribe to it. Thanks for reporting!

That's awesome. I'll be looking forward to it, thanks! 👍

This should be fixed now. We won't release just yet but there are development versions available if you don't want to wait.
