Creating new app on Twitter causes "Rate limit exceeded" error

twitter

Solution

UPDATE: Bug seems resolved. I was able to create an App.

OP is creating an App and seeing this error in the Web UI. The App is used to get the required OAuth credentials. Only after you have those credentials you can start to use the API. Apparently there is currently an error which prevents creation of apps. Twitter acknowledged the problem and is investigating: https://twittercommunity.com/t/does-not-allow-me-to-create-a-new-app/32528/9

The HTTP Headers mentioned by DWRoelands are sent back when one is actually using the API and exceeding rate limits (as described in the document he linked)

Problem

I have been trying to create an app for my Twitter developer account. Everything has been going good for a while now but now when I create a new app, I get a "Rate limit exceeded" error. I think this error comes with the API but I am only creating a new app. Any idea why I might be suffering from this problem?
