COP VS AI BOTS ruining everything?!

why is it that now when i want to learn a champ with other people i physically cant do it because people have botted their accounts to go into that game mode to ruin it? There hasn't been a single game so far that has gone smoothly or even been enjoyable at all. What i also want to know is why hasn't riot done anything about this yet? its been months since this started and i feel all the reports i send mean nothing and go nowhere. Also before people try to bash me saying "create your own game blah blah blah" that's not the point i'm making... this game mode use to be a great way to learn with other people at a beginner level now its ruined and you actually have to try and have decent mechanics to win a single match to carry the weight of the bots.

So... what sorta behavior do you get? Are you sure its not just people who are new/bad at the game sorta like... the people that the mode is designed for?

Before Twisted Treeline was removed, I would estimate 2 out of 5 "people" playing in any given game were bots. And you could tell. They would always go to bottom lane and never leave. They would walk to the middle of the lane and stop. They would often not get items outside potions. They wouldn't use abilities. They wouldn't attack champions unless there were no minions. They wouldn't respond in chat, ping, or emote at all. They wouldn't use summoner icons or spells outside of the defaults. (i.e. Ghost/Heal, the old minion icon w/ shield)

So if these are the behaviors you witnessed, they might be a bot. Otherwise, it's probably just a player newer or worse at the game than you.
