  Is there a quota for number of blogs that can be fofollowed? I think there is a block. Please help.

  Yes there is a limit. Following too large a number of blogs in a short space of time can result in your account being blocked from following more blogs. I’ve added a modlook tag to ask if a member of staff could reply to you. There may be a delay as it is the weekend.

  Hi there,

  Your account is not currently blocked from following sites. However, I see that you were temporarily blocked two days ago for hitting our bulk-following limits. Please note that the Following feature is intended to follow a reasonable amount of sites you wish to read in the WordPress.com Reader, and is not intended for use as a way to show approval or to increase traffic to your own site through follow-backs. Repeatedly hitting our bulk-following limits can result in a permanent block on your account.
