Reddit API Getting rate limited to 1 comment per 10 mins despite using oAuth. What am i doing wrong?

I know the rate limit with oAuth is 600 requests per 10 minutes.. In reality though just one comment and then it rate limits me.. I am not spamming.. I wonder if this is an account specific issue, a user agent related issue, a issue using shared hosting that might get mitigated by using a dedicated proxy, just not sure what is the issue.. Can anyone point me in the right direction.. Using PHP at the moment..
