Auto accept and lock in?

So I would never want to "hack" League of Legends or do anything that would get me banned. But I do want to write a program that I wouldn't consider hacking, but may get me in trouble anyway. So I'm coming here to inquire about the idea because I don't want any trouble here.

Would I be banned or suspended for programming something to auto accept queues? I wanted to take this one step further and write a program that has a list of prioritized champs I want to ban and have it auto ban, so long as they aren't being banned by someone else (using the 5 man system, meaning only on my team, not "cheating" and using the data on the hidden bans from the enemy team), then lock in my champ depending on what roll I got, using the same prioritized programmed system, using the champs I want to play.

Hopefully that makes sense...

Anyway, I thought it'd be a fun idea to play with so long as my account doesn't get banned for it.

Any thoughts on this? Maybe it'll just be fun to see other ideas we wish we could do on here haha.

I wouldn't personally ban you for it, but from my understanding (which isn't very researched and could very well be wrong) Riot doesn't really accept any sort of alteration of League and it's client. I think they even started banning skins from external sites (rip Sanic Rammus). This is definitely something you want to send in with a direct support ticket and you need to screenshot confirmation if they say it's allowed, cuz you're in a pretty shady area of "acceptable" yaknow?

Two immediate flaws; one, you're promoting a method that explicitly does not communicate with your team and possibly could be seen as denying the opportunity (which can get you attention for behavioral moderation in excess, probably)-- by having it basically pre-load a bunch of reactions. All the same, your team might want to be in on that, or talk to you about it; while there's no rule about marching to your own beat, appearing to flagrantly ignore people on multiple counts might be bad.

The second is that League generally ix-nays scripts, probably because one grey zone breeds two others; if they allow something like this to slide through the cracks, then eventually more 'like' it but not quite it will show up as well. And then where does it stop, you know?

I'd say: if you have to ask, probably not.

Technically using any third party program for league is technically bannable. While I don't think this necessarily would be a huge problem, it would still be bannable, and would be picked up by Riot's detection most likely. So in short, I don't think it's worth the risk because if you are in fact banned, they are under no obligation to unban you because the third party program you used "wasn't harmful"

It'd be risky. It very well could get you banned.

If you're looking for a way to accept queues and ban while away from your computer for a second, look into Remote Desktop software. Certain versions of Windows (Pro version only I think) let you use Microsoft's Remote Desktop, but there are other remote desktop solutions such as Team Viewer. Many of these have phone apps that you can use to control your computer from your phone, as well as have the computer audio come to your phone.

That would let you use the bathroom or run to the kitchen to make a snack without missing anything, without the risk of being banned.

I kind of figured that would be the response. I wish I could play around with things like that, but I guess it'd be too good to be true to be lazy enough to be able to get a snack while in queue.

Thanks for your input!!

Feel free to discuss further. This topic is interesting to me.
