Fata1 Err0r nope I just clicked on the person in " recommended for you" area and it came up with a little gray box at the bottom of the screen.

Ah, I see. Thanks for clearing my doubts.

Answer 8

Good question. I've no idea. :)
Did you follow that many people immediately, back to back? Or is that just the people you've followed over the time you've been here?
I could see this going either way. In one hand, you could be limited if you're spamming follows like a bot would. In the other, that's a lot of people that you're following, so maybe it's just the overall cap on it for whatever their reasoning.
Does it give you a specific error message?

Answer 9

LONGTIE
I 500 following total, it may be different now.

Answer 10

I think 4995 people are more than necessary for us to have a Healthy and Relevant Information Network for our life and work.
Sometimes we need to make choices in our lives like choosing A Programming Language to learn, the girl of our life and even letting us see some friends for a while

Answer 11

I don't think there is a follow limit, in my opinion.
