Fix: Sorry You've Hit a Block Pinterest

Fix: Sorry You've Hit a Block Pinterest

Did you just pin over 50 Pin’s to a Pinterest board within an hour and receive a message you have hit a limit? Pinterest actually limits the amount of Pin’s you can pin to a board. You may see the following message.





 

Oops!

Sorry! You’ve hit a block (Pins) we have in place to combat spam. Please try again later.

 

Wait an hour or so and you should be able to re-pin to the same board again. Let us know if this does not work for you in the comments.

Same message here. Interesting... I got blocked by a bot for suspecting I was a bot. Haven't pinned anything, haven't saved anything, haven't commented or liked anything; I just browse the feed for ideas. I've been using Pinterest for years and this is a first.

All I'm doing is looking through some pins to make quilted Christmas ornaments and I'm getting the error message. What do I do now. I haven't looked at these in over a year.

I had only pinned 3 items to different places. This makes no sense to me and the message will NOT go away. It popped up every 10 seconds over anything I was doing. Please fix this or I will quit Pinterest.

It’s extremely annoying. Please remove it, or at least let users disable this feature by their own free will.

I've been getting this message for over 24 hours now. It looks like Pinterests spam detection is broken, because it is preventing normal users from doing anything!

Clearing my internet history, cookies, active logins, etc, worked for me.

Hi,
The message I got said "Oops! You've hit a block(messages) we have in place to combat spam. Try again later." Does that mean when I send an email to my brother of one of these photos that I can no longer do that? Is it possible to have that undone? I had no idea that there was a limit of the emails that I could send of the pictures.

I was creating sections on a couple of my boards (which is a great feature by the way!), and therefore wasn't actually pinning any new stuff in the first place, and now I can see the "you've hit a block" notification and it won't let me add my pins to the sections I've created, even on other boards. It's been a few hours now and I still can't do it. Very annoying. I don't understand the whole purpose of the spam announcement anyway. Shouldn't people be allowed to pin as much stuff as they want? Plus it seems to be causing problems like mine, when I haven't even been doing anything wrong. I wonder how long it's gonna take to be able to move my pins again. Very frustrating.

Love that you can now make sections in boards it helps keep order with our schooling pins, however i hit a pin block often just trying to move them to the new organised sections. Its very frustrating as i have to wait for my son to sleep to work on his lesson plan content only to find i can't move much after all.
Can you edit your programming to stop the organise/move pin feature from being recognised as repins? particularly as they were already pinned and merely moving them to sort boards shouldn't be classed as repinning.

I haven't been following or unfollowing or anything like that. I just decided to organize my pins into subgroups, and it's been nearly 24 hours and I still get this message.

I go to send a pin to someone that I follow and I get the "Sorry! You’ve hit a block (Pins) we have in place to combat spam. Please try again later." WHY??? she is able to send me pins, so why am I not able to send her pins and how do I fix this??? Getting annoying.

Hey! I just pinned 1 picture today, and it logged me out and blocked me. What is happening? Waited for a bit, still not working. There's no customer service on the website. The Help page won't solve my problem.
