Riot and fellow summoners,please hear me for just a few minutes.(And please forgive me for my grammar) You may say and call me what you will afterwards,but please just hear me.Allow to explain my situation.

Throughout my time of playing league there is always a certain..Lets call it an affliction,that has always haunted me.No not the trolls and typical asshats,you can mute those guys.Not the afk guys,as they are actually better than what i am about to talk about.What am i leading to?

Bots.

These damn machines are ruining my experience.Now i am a co vs ai/Aram exclusive player.Say what you will,but i just cant take the stress of ranked play.That is of course why i play these modes exclusively.These things are programmed by people who just want some free IP grind.They don't want to put any effort in,they just want there IP.

Disgusting.

I have played 4 games today.In literally every single game i have played,these machines have haunted me.But no matter what happens i always slug through the matches.Why? Because i always say-"If i stay i can report them,afterwards they will be caught and banned." But recently..My will is just dying out.

I reported 4 people today,and i still constantly see these people doing this.I feel like i can't fight it at all.I'm damn near in tears because i can't play the game i enjoy.This is my second favorite game of all time (Chess being my first,but that's not the point) We Co op vs ai people are a minority,it seems like you are ignoring us.Almost as if you are just sliding us under a rug and saying "We can deal with this later."

No.

This cannot happen,i am tired of it.No matter how many bots i report,they never go away.Its like 1/4 of the population is human,and the rest are brain dead zombies.Sure you can kill a hell of alot of them,but you can never stop them.But once again,you can sure take out a hell of alot of them.

So please riot,i want you to do something about this.Its quite simple really.Just say this to the player base.

"All people who use bots will be banned from our game forever." Bam! Problem solved.Once a single person reports someone for botting and evidence shows that the person is using a bot,that person is gone forever.Lost in the fucking nether.(Pardon my language,as i am quite pissed)

Also,give us the option to report someone for botting.You know that thing that people have been asking for ever since this issue came about.

I think i have gone on for long enough.I don't know if this will do anything,but i do know this.I am going to log off for the night,go to bed,and pray to God Allah Zeus,or whatever deity you may or may not believe in,that you guys will see this problem.And end this soon.

"Just because this is co op vs ai does not mean that the summoners code does not apply." That is the quote i tell myself every time someone breaks the rule of the summoners code.

I'll be going now.A rioter giving me some update on how you plan (Or at least could plan) On getting rid of these people would be great.But i am stressed to hell right now,and i just want to feel the sandman's embrace..Or Freddy's.Whichever one my fate may have in store for me,good night.

Dominion Bros share your pain. Botting is a plague that needs to be eradicated swiftly. I doubt it's an easy fix however.

Bots are a side effect of letting people have as many smurfs as they want. They've done it before, and they don't want to grind to lvl 30 again, so now bot programs have a market. Or, just to grind IP. If LoL didn't make you buy your champions, or make you buy your Runes, or have account levels that barred you from certain things (ranked, summoner spells, masteries) bots would be extremely rare or not exist. Dota does fine without these things.

There are plenty of reports already about the bots issue in which even some botters were even hired by Riot to solve these problems, all we can do is hope for the best really.

Yeah, I'm lost. This is the first time I've ever heard of people using autopilot programs to "cheat" in League. I've never really felt as though I encountered any during my time on this game (I joined when Varus was released) and i'd imagine such a program would have a host of flaws that would make it hard to perfect. That doesn't mean that I believe they don't exist (let alone as a problem) but I've just simply never dealt with these before (to my knowledge).
