A hacker in wc3 who crash custom lobbies every day

For several months, one player has been ruining our lives in the wc3 game. He is a hacker who exploits vulnerabilities in the game and crash custom hosted lobbies. He somehow duplicates the nicknames of the players, writes ‘wwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww’ to the lobby chat and crash it, makes nicknames spoof/disappear and use any possible way to ruin our game experience so that we cannot start the game.
