Map/Scout limit - Support, need your input!

So there is some kind of limit on the map now, but nobody knows exactly what the limit is.

Support, can you please clarify so that we know exactly what is going on?

Is it map browsing that is limited or scouts that are limited? And what is the limit?

It would be nice if a news announcement was posted, because a lot of players are getting this "map read limit" message and have no idea why. I have a feeling there will be a lot of negative feedback.

it is 1000 scrolls of the map per hour limit

Here is a summary of the info I got from support and that I have been asking everyone to pass around hope it helps it's not 100% of the details but it's what I know..
Ok so I have got some clarification on the scout limitations now! 
U can only scout/scroll map 1000 times per hour this means the actual action of scouting (receiving a report) AND just scrolling thru the map counts towards the 1000 per hour.  if u reach the limit ur map will not be opened until the start of the next hour example: at 02:45:00 u reach ur limit it will be 15 mins b4 u can open and scroll map again once game clock hits 03:00:00 
Also I was told that u should receive a warning when u are close to the limit (not sure if this true, if anyone can confirm for me plz letter me) 
I really hope this helps everyone out wish I could have given more exact details but it's all I have been able to get from support if u have any other questions please letter me or in game support for further help
Good Luck!

Here is some additional info that raxzk has tested! Thx Rax! 

So I just decided to test it and here is what I found...

The limit is 1000. 
Scrolls count. 
There is no warning. 

Once you exceed the limit you CAN send out a hunt. You stay on the map screen you were last on but it is blank. If you click a blank square you still have the normal options (attack, scout, add to favorites) (create or move city for blank spot). So you CAN randomly click blank squares until you find an oasis and send your troops off. Additionally you can still get a scouting report for any of the people on the screen leading me to believe that scouting reports do NOT count. 

Oh thx!! That's bad tho lol. Ill remember that.

That is very bad. When this happens. Like yesterday to me. When troops are out you can't hunt them. You can't send an attack. Can't even manually enter cords and hit enter to hunt or attack a fort. Your troops are stuck out for all to see till that hour is over. Your forced to wr or dispatch your troops from one city to the next. God help you if yur citys are on top of each other or 6 hours appart. Better have coin.

Operator please read the second message that JoArch posted...that is a message I sent to my alli after investigating. I wrote that. I hunted my troops via that method and it worked fine. You can hunt, but it has to be within the 7x7 box that you were currently looking at on the map when the limit was reached.
