I started playing league in December of 2009. I got a laptop for Christmas and it was the first thing I installed. I love this game and even the community. Everyone reading this has loaded once at least once realizing their entire team is bots. It is beyond obvious when it happens. I realize the complex nature of the coding that goes into a game like this BUT I find it difficult to believe that Riot cant come up with a way to make sure 3ird party programs (bots) can not be used. Ever heard of CAPTCHA ?? here is a link. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CAPTCHA. There are several easily developed systems that are very successful in weeding out spam and automated access programs. I love and appreciate the living nature of this game. Things are constantly being balanced and improved but bots is something we can all consistently hate. Honestly it is why I have not qualified in ranked in over 2 years. The ladder system is difficult enough to climb and maintain get 2 games of bots and its over. So I stay in aram where there is nothing to lose but re-rolls. and time. Here come the flames. yes yes someone is about to type (you haven't ranked in 2 years because you SUCK!) lol maybe. but bots suck more and all of you know it.

bad bots are easy to detect. But a GOOD bot is indistinguishable from a BAD player.

After all, there are many actual people who play worse than riot's own "intermediate bots".
