Votekicking weird asciis

Sometimes griefers use extremely weird names with ascii symbols, how can I votekick them?
I tried to find a solution in some other topic, but I couldn't. Is this a problem only for me? Is there any kind of solution?

There are a few ways trolls use their name to under mind people new to the game. The may add spaces or special characters such as a spade or a heart. To votekick anyone foolproof use their #. To votekick using it do
"/votekick # reason"
You can find the # next to their kill count by pressing tab. if it doesn't work then just tell me and I will see what I did wrong but this has always worked for me.

Yes, using the number of the player is usually quicker than typing their name anyway, so I would recommend only using that. It also stops players with similar names from getting kicked for something the other did.

Oh! Thank you. This was so obvious, I'm not even new to the game, I just happened to ask it for the first time only after a year that I had the issue. Like an idiot Green_tongue
