Limit of emotions/signs in a PM

Wouldn't this be something addressed with the playerlist script now rather than the client?

edit: nevermind. Skyld can't do anything about it so it's still up to Stefan. It does seem like a very simple fix though. Just keep tab on the emoticon count and stop parsing smilies after it exceeds 50 or so.

Ideally just limit the number of images a PM message control will display, smilies or not. You can do the same thing with a bunch of <img> tags. I think you can also still crash the client by sending an <img> tag with the source being a giant file (as long as the file has an image extension—his solution last time was to remove iso from the list of image extensions, which is laughably ineffective).
