I have bought the monthly membership of $20 and was told i have a message cap of 40 per 3 hours. However, today i only managed to send 20 messages before they claimed that i reached my message cap. Is the limit reduced or does the message cap include both my messages and responses?

Hi @sly orbit. I'm kapa.ai, your friendly support bot. I will try to answer your question by searching through the knowledge base. :wave:
The message cap for ChatGPT Plus, which costs $20 per month, is typically 50 messages every 3 hours on GPT-4, as stated in the OpenAI help article (https://help.openai.com/en/articles/6950777-what-is-chatgpt-plus). However, it's important to note that this cap can be dynamic at times of high load, as mentioned in the OpenAI community forum (https://community.openai.com/t/563968).
The cap does not typically reduce to 20 messages, and it should not include both your messages and responses. However, there have been instances where users have reported reaching the cap after less than the expected number of messages, as seen in the OpenAI community forum (https://community.openai.com/t/560959).
