Martin, do you think, it would be possible to add some check, so when this error occurs, the TJ stop hammering Tumblr with current task?

what examples happens when this is triggered? Does anyone have an account that is "rate limited" I can log into and see how it works in order to detect
No idea unfortunately, I just found my accs gone.

Martin, do you remember the last big ban-wave, which was caused by setting the title of acc via TJ? Have you found the reason back then? Could you check, if something similar can be now happening when you set "Custom theme" via TJ?

Thanks

As a above, if you have a minimum set of instructions which causes an account to get banned without fail, that would be help.

Lost 1458 of 1459 accs
Inspected survived acc - he had no title and header, updated theme
So, martin, is it again about updating acc bio through TJ?

I have also lost accounts which were not updated (not even manually) and were older than 1 year. I have feeling, that the following is flagging the accounts somehow ... but I'm not sure how or what exactly.

Is it a good idea to stop following on TJ while we wait to see what the cause is?

That's up to you ... if you wanna help to figure out, what's the cause of the bans, then do what you can do and write it to this thread. I'm constantly running a tests, but have mixed results ... for example, this week, it looks like it's caused by posting or rebloging.

It would be helpful, if also other mass-account users write down here their findings.
