Retweet - error "already retweeted this tweet" #88

Closed sinbadxiii closed 8 years ago

sinbadxiii commented 8 years ago

The function auto_rt() returns an error: {u'errors': [{u'message': u'You have already retweeted this tweet.', u'code': 327}]}

Retweets are stored in the cache?

Twitter tracks if you've already retweeted something. The TwitterFollowBot doesn't, but instead uses Twitter's error message to (hopefully) gracefully move on when a tweet has already been retweeted.
