Riot if you don't do something about the bots

This game will be so filled with bots one day that it will be 95% bots who play your game and when people who play it find this out they will want nothing to do with it. ARAM is LOADED with bots. It's almost completely unplayable, as in, there is almost no fun to it at all when this is the case. They are not very well disguised as players, even when they aren't simply designed to intentionally feed. I have played this game for seven years now, and I know that it has always been the case that ARAM has been plagued with botters, I am nearly at my breaking point with it now. Will you at least talk about it publicly so we know that you are at least trying to do something about it? I would like to request a Rioter to respond to this post. I'll send a support ticket with the same information.

Riot is ridiculously lazy. They let bots continue so they can ban them in waves instead of actively combatting the problem. Rather than implement a system the can identify and ban bots asap, they wait months before ban waves so they can keep using the same system without updating it because bot programmers can't easily identify Riot's bot detection algorithms if Riot barely ever uses them.

What pisses me off most is that there's already a system that completely works at identifying not just bots, but also intentional feeders, trolls, and intentional afkers. But Riot won't reinstate the tribunal even though it's the best damn problem player detection system they've ever had.

New account ARAM and very late night/early morning ARAM are the worst for it.
