Poster Message Date
This seemed like an awesome idea, until I realized you could select a bunch of friends at a time and send this invite message to all of them at once.

But I could live with that. Then, I started inviting people. When I got to about the 15th person, Facebook told me I was sending out emails too fast and that I was in violation of their terms.

How am I supposed to invite 30 people from my facebook profile to my event? Facebook shut me down.

Do I have to send them a 2nd email now at their personal email address for them to show up in my guest list?

Another issue I am having is that only 4 people that I invited from facebook show up in my guest list, but I sent the e-mail to probably 8-10 people before facebook shut me down. Help!

Hi Aisha, I understand completely, but unfortunately these are all limitations of the Facebook platform, so we just put together the best Facebook integration that their system would allow us. I'd recommend inviting most guests via their email address using Socializr, and then use the Facebook invite feature for the ones whose email address you don't have. Sat 10/17/09
