I began deleting all my account's messages 2 days ago. Probably somewhere around 10,000 in total. With an average delay of 2450 ms (I used the modification #168 which adjusts the delay randomly, however, I applied the changes from that gist to the original script and also set it to increase the min and max delays if rate limiting is reached). However, I didn't ever notice rate limits being reached. I used a min of 900 ms and a max of 4000 ms.
After getting most of it deleted, what seems to have resulted in my account suspended was one of or a combination of the following factors:
(1) Had the third party client Ripcord open
(2) Sent a message through it to a non-friend (I thought he was on my friends list but turns out no). Message failed to send.
(3) Then I sent a friend request. Around this point I was logged out and my account was disabled.
So if you're going to do mass-deleting, do not do any of those three things!
