Describe your issue

I am running the "multi_script_CLI.py" example and it doesn't seem that my parameters are being considered when I use the "follow_users_by_hashtag" method. It keeps giving me errors on about 80% of accounts saying that it is skipping. Also, I want to follow Business accounts. See the log below:

My parameters are set up as follows (there should be no way that any of the filters are hit based off my high numbers):

Current parameters

Max likes per day: 1000

Max unlikes per day: 1

Max follows per day: 500

Max unfollows per day: 1

Max comments per day: 1

Max likes to like: 9999999

Max followers to follow: 9999999

Min followers to follow: 0

Max following to follow: 10000

Min following to follow: 0

Max followers to following_ratio: 9999999

Max following to followers_ratio: 9999999

Min media_count to follow:0

Like delay: 1

Unlike delay: 1

Follow delay: 5

Unfollow delay: 5

Comment delay: 5

Proxy: None

So in summary, I'm basically looking to follow ALL accounts with certain hashtags, but 80% of the accounts get skipped either due to being Business account, not meeting parameters, or being verified.

Please help! Thanks

Use "filter_users=False" in Bot section.

Example:

bot = Bot(filter_users=False, like_delay=180, max_likes_to_like=80)

Then you can have that error.
