I seem to remember reports of people having their accounts suspended for using third-party clients (though I may be thinking of Discord accounts). Either way, I've used ripcord a bit and though it's not much to look at, it certainly gets the job done. I'm personally grateful for an alternative.
WRT. Ripcord, from what I've heard (I can't find the source now :/), it was Discord, the bans were due to a bug, and were promptly lifted after contact with support. But perhaps there were other bans I haven't heard of.
