I am not able to send direct messages; does anyone know how long this is going to take?

      The system throws up when it thinks you've sent "too many" messages. You get put in DM timeout for a while. Sometimes it's a few minutes, sometimes longer.

      It took about 5 hours, which is insane. It looks like an old system, though I am not sure; that is just my guess because I do not see any other reason to block users from sending messages.

      That's ridiculous! I've never had to wait more than 20-30 minutes at the longest. Usually it's under 10 minutes.

      I know, they are just simple messages, and you can't even send pictures, so there is no need for that limitation.

      As @Mujibar said, too many DM'S especially if you have multiple chats going. Happens all the time.

      Yes, I know, I was just wondering approximately how long it will take. I can't believe it took about 5 hours.
