3 years ago To Ban a user you need to use the User ID, the name doesn't matter, check Telegram Bot API and corresponding python-telegram-bot framework function.
Regarding the error, I can't replicate the problem, but seems strange that I haven't saw it in my logs, are you using python3 right?
A simple fix should be to parse/encode the text that going to be printed in "printts()" funcion. Let me fix it...
Hi...
A long time ago, I was using the bot version: Current Bot version: 1.10.4 (06/22/2020) and lately some Russian bots have started to enter, in which it is not possible to mark them to ban. When understanding, Telegram allows you to create accounts without a user profile, so you can't ban them via 'inline'. The problem with this, is that the Russians in particular use crazy characters, and that you can't ban them. In this version, when they enter, at least it shows the "user account", as an example:
2021-02-27 20:53:55: [-00_removed_00] New join detected: Денис Будахян (1674530619) 2021-02-27 20:53:55: [-00_removed_00] Sending captcha message to Денис Будахян: E2DD ... 2021-02-27 20:53:56: [-00_removed_00] Captcha send process complete.
2021-02-27 20:54:56: [-00_removed_00] Captcha reply timed out for user Денис Будахян. 2021-02-27 20:54:56: [-00_removed_00] Captcha not solved, kicking Денис Будахян (1674530619) ... 2021-02-27 20:54:57: [-00_removed_00] Increased join_retries to 5 2021-02-27 20:54:58: [-00_removed_00] Removing messages from user Денис Будахян ... 2021-02-27 20:54:58: [-00_removed_00] Kick / Ban process complete
So, to ban this bot, I need to type: tg: // user? Id = 1674530619
I thought, that this problem had been solved in the Current Bot version: 1.18.0 (02/27/2021)
However, the result was a bot crash, as follows:

The first error occurred when this user entered (without quotes): "Илья токсичая жител_ка постмодерниз_ма!"
The second error, with this user (without quotes): "Elena ♥ ️97"
How can I fix this problem?
