Image throttling issue [closed]

Paragon,

We are running into a significant issue with image throttling given the number of boards now on Paragon. We are working to restructure our requests to more effectively download images, but we need support from Paragon to raise our limit temporarily so that we can continue to download images and support tens of thousands of agent and brokerage websites that are currently impacted by the photo throttling and failing to display listing photos in a timely manner. Is there someone we can discuss this with?

We are trying to avoid directing agents and brokerages to their MLS board around this issue and would appreciate partnership in resolving.

Thank you,

Can you also provide the URL's and Username for at least one of the customers which is causing the most trouble?

Also, if you're getting an error, can we please get that too?
