Im very happy to see the Retweet option!
There is just a problem with it, when someone retweets soemthing, that post gets put into a folder of the original author and not the person that retweeted and who I wanted to fetch.

So for example I jsut fetched 1 user and that created 200 folders for alle the different retweets.
So in that way its not well organized and impossible to handle.
