Room Crashings

Yes, room crashers.
For the last few months, there has been an ever-growing group on the IMVU Client that thrives on room crashing. I have personally experienced this, and wanted to share a warning as well as ways around this.

What Happens

    -A user will enter a room with x amount of participants
    -That user will paste a code within the chat
    -Anyone using a Computer will lag/crash out of IMVU


How to go against it

    -If you know the user, obviously blocking will help. Sadly, they are starting to make throwaway accounts to still send crashers
    -This code does not work on Mobile. If you are on the app, please report the message when the person tries to crash the room. Either the code itself will show, or a very large blank message.
    -Report this every single time it happens. Screenshots and Log Reports will help when filing an IMVU ticket.

Why the Post?

I personally am pretty new at coding myself, and I am open to learning more. Would there be a way to program or code a counter measure against room crashers that use this method?
