Inviting a person to study does not work.

Inviting a person to study does not work.

I created a study and invited about twenty people. And I can not invite people anymore. I click on the invite button, a list of people who are online right now appears and can be invited. Then I click on one of the people and nothing happens. A person is not invited, but everything worked well before. I clicked and the person was invited to study and disappeared from the list.

Why can not I invite people? What happened?
I need to invite people to study. Why can not I invite people to study? What happened? Why do not invitations work? Does anyone answer?
You invited a ton of people and got rate limited. Wait 24h, and invite fewer player - only those who actively want to be part of the study.
@thibault And how do I invite 40-50 people? I need to invite to the study a lot of people who themselves want it. Why can not I do this?
Hello dear thibault! We are a big group of fans on Lichess (more then 40 as mentioned). The option to be connected on studying all together at a time would help us a lot. Would you please help us in inviting more people to study please? Thank you very much for your assistance.
Just send them the study URL. You don't need 40 contributors.
If they follow you, they will see that you created a study, then you don't even need to send the URL.
@thibault
1. If I create a private study, I can not send people the URL. They can not get to study. They are not allowed to go to the site engine.
2. If I send 20 URLs, my private messages will stop working.
3. Why can not I send more than 20 invitations? Why can not I invite more than 30 people to study?

Maybe it's worth repealing these meaningless restrictions? We do not deal with spam mailing, we are a group of friends who need study for about 50 people.
1. You can set the study to unlisted and share the url.
2. Yeah thats spamming
3. Thats also spamming

Your intention might not be to spam. But there is no way to separate between that and a spammer.

If you are a group of friend you could make a lichess team or a group on facebook or whatever and share the URL there.
@lovlas
Spam is when a person receives a message that he does not want to receive. People ask me to invite them, and how can I invite them? I am blocked by private messages if I invited more than 20 friends. And they do not let me invite them directly for study. How should we be?

Do not offer to use facebook. Not everyone has a facebook and not everyone likes it. People want to be able to invite each other on this site using this site. Why do we need facebook?

If we create a chess team, it does not help us to invite each other. The chess team does not allow sending an invitation to its members.
You can't distinguish between spam and many messages that are sent with consent.

Then use something else. Emails, text messages, twitter. There are countless options.

Chess teams have a forum where you can post links.
