I have a Strava group set up with over 200 members and I like to encourage them by adding a comment when I can

However, after about 20 or so comments, I do not seem to be able to post anymore as an error comes up

 

Why is there a comment posts limit, it's not very good if I can only reach 5% of my Strava group

Bryant - what is the “cooling off” period, as it were? My club hosted a race yesterday where probably 70 people I know raced. There’s no abusing the system, spamming links; it’s just congratulating them and thanking them for doing the race. 
 

why do you place restrictions on comments? Worse, I’m a paid member - so I can’t use the service I’m literally paying for

I'm experiencing this issue now too. Super frustrating. How long do I have to get stuck waiting until comments are 'unlocked' again. This is kinda dumb. And by kinda, I mean REALLY dumb
