It is, effective now, not kosher to text crash clients. If you text crash someone's client I may...
1) Do nothing
2) Draw obscene pictures
3) Reduce your characters
4) Decide that your characters are forfeit.
5) Delete your shit.
Whichever fancy strikes me.
All hail the Enlightened Despot.
Also, whoever killed Emina can come forward now, before I find out, and I might be merciful.

Re: Text Crashing
I gave loftar a fix for this ages ago, there was only a small problem with it that should have been easily correctable (didn't respect newline characters)
I know it's a dirty hack, but it stops people from exploiting so probably worth applying

I've hacked it otherwise to render a turd now instead of crashing, at least. Real rich text rendering should be on its way soon anyway.
