Permanent Bans Recently

Most people claim innocence, then a Rioter puts them on blast by saying they scripted or got boosted. From there, a slew of comments come in saying Riot is destroying their own game and throwing money away.

Bans = More $$

No bans = Less $$

The less people who are ruining games for other people, the more enjoyable the game is for everybody else. Which, if you don't already know, will make long time players of the game which equals more money.

The more people who are ruining games for other people, the less enjoyable the game is for everybody else. Which, would leave the game in a dismal state in which normal players (those without cheats/hacks/boosts) would not enjoy the game and switch to another. That means less money.

I do believe there needs to a list of specific programs, as there's been a lot of confusion with what's acceptable and what is not from different Rioters. Riot will always direct you to their page which still is vague. I'm not saying all bans are justifiable, but people who cheat are far easier to find than you would assume. If you play on 1 or 2 IP's regularly, then an IP from a different location starts playing your account and you go from Bronze to Platinum, pretty simple. But even at the in depth of an analysis, there's other core components and triggers Riot uses to find people who cheat, just like Private Investigators or Police do to catch criminals. If you don't want banned, then just play the game. If you're banned unjustly, then talk to them and clear it up.

I'd agree too an extent. There should be small patches weekly or bi-weekly that should fix or tweak bugs and champions, but large scale reworks, new items, etc should be far less often. With them adding new things into the game after 2 PBE cycles (and sometimes even 1), you're going to get a lot of imbalance in the game per patch. A rework like Fiora's, who is still in a pretty toxic state on live, should be planned out and tested for a long time to get the scaling and base damage correct BEFORE hitting live. Sure people will say champions like Poppy were successful, but out of all the champions, almost all reworked champions have been overtuned and abused. That same philosophy goes with new items too. We can keep the small patches, but for the most part, anything between .1 and .4 should be skins, bug fixes and kit tunings.

not to mention that if people who spend money are banned they will come back and make new accounts to spend more money...

That's also true, but most people learn after their first mistake. Some people will never learn and will continue to get banned over and over. So either they gain more money because it keeps people like us interesting in the game and continuing to play, watch LCS, watch Worlds, buy memorabilia, buying skins, etc and ridding those who make that experience worse for us.
