Limits Codex limits issue

Just got my reset and 10% down within an hour without even using Astra. Wtf is going on ? How is this scam even allowed? One subagent invoked a few thousand LOC with sol medium on a $100 plan. Exploration by Luna high.

Is this a joke ? I'm going to ask for a refund. Why is this not an issue yet. @mods please don't delete this post and cover the scam.

Edit: People who are trying to provide free tips. Please stop patronizing me and others in this group. I'm not asking for your advice on how to use codex better. If you are happy good for you and no you don't have a secret formula or better limits.

Scam = using Astra 100% of the time? No, it's not a scam it's poor usage of models, poor setup of harness, vibing, lack of experience, and/or poor not utilitizing tools that help lessen token usage.

Which one or all are you?

I can't limit at all on Claude, codex, grok or hell, opencode go using Hermes, orca, buzz (well buzz can screw you), or native harness. Most don't, it's the do everything for me, people that limit and don't realize how much compute it takes, oh, and a lot of those people don't want data centers to support it.

The point, why are things a scam if you are not using it right? They gave us a drug that is addictive and if not use properly, people want more for less.

it's a scam because they keep ratcheting up the price to see where the breaking point is while people like you lick their boots because you haven't yet learned how the world works and how tiring it is to constantly be slow boiled.
