YOlooooooooo <-- yeah how to get rid of long username

Sometimes when admins wanna kick users in a world, they failed to do so cuz some username are quite long, for example " blaaaaaaaa", but then the bot will recognize it as "blaaa". So I wanna know how would u solve this problem.
This length thing is server-side so it's not that simple to solve?

solution 1. (FAIL)

foreach users in players{
if(users.username.Startswith("bla")//target found
}

this is not accurate as if goeyfunnnnnnnn is to be kicked, goeyfunn will be kicked instead.

solution2 (Possible)

foreach users in players{
if(user.usrname.startswith("bla")TBK.Add(user.usrid);
}

tell admins which to choose?

the second solution may not be the best solution, but how would u solve this problem?

Have certain characters that will be ignored, replace ',' to '' for instance.

#kick yolooooooooo

#kick yolo,ooo,ooo,oo
