Bots crashing fashion shows

Earlier, I was attending a fashion show, and about halfway through, a player named 'spookyspeedometer' joined and very quickly left. A few minutes later, everyone in the den was flooded with ~250 jags from monkey bots saying 'Do you want to play a game?', causing our games to crash. The fashion show was put on hold for quite a while as the host was getting spammed with friend requests by these bots, which was stopping them from using their account. The troller returned, and hid at the bottom of the den dancing, but left after a little while, probably because we caught their username. They then switched to another account named 'artsyhammers' and, again, ran to hide at the bottom of our screens. If that was their attempt at hiding their username so we can't report them, it was terrible. We then moved into another player's den to avoid all of this, where we finished the show with the host on an alt account. Luckily, nothing else has happened since then, and the host's main account has stopped being bothered.

Wowee, I am spooked! What a terrifying incident! I'm not sure what this person/group of people's goal is, but if they're trying to scare the community, I hope they know we think this is hilariously cringe lmao. And if they're just trying to be a bother, that is quite a miserable thing to do in your spare time. I think the best thing to do if you come across one of these accounts is to not interact or give them the reaction they're looking for. Even if we're throwing insults at them, it's still attention for them. And if they join your den, make sure to turn off your jags and buddy requests as soon as possible!

Update: About an hour later, the host started another fashion show, and it got crashed by bots again. This time, everyone had jags and buddy requests turned off, but still got their game crashed. No-one caught a username this time, unfortunately. I'm not sure if there's any way to prevent this unless AJHQ takes action :(

(My post got taken down due to no proof being provided, so hopefully this video is substantial. Sorry for the bad quality, AJ doesn't clip well for me)
