Open Question Concerning Scripts

Scripting is a bane for everyone in this game. Whether it's facing off against Broken Wings Rivens or Wind Walker Yasuos, or just generic Orb Walker or BoL scripts, I know a lot of people can attest from ample experience that it is an awful time.

Riot has a hard time fighting scripting as they would need to fund and work an entire department dedicated JUST to scriptbusting. The Tribunal system is ineffective in dealing with the problem through no fault of its own.

I've heard it speculated that scripts can be written that can detect the presence of other scripts and shut them down. So, my question is this.

Would Riot condone such an anti-script? Would they allow the player base to take matters into their own hands and stop these scripts themselves?

I know the Tribunal process for sweeping through cheaters is automatic at this point, so anybody using an injector will be banned without prior notice. Does anyone think they'd consider making an exception?

Two wrongs don't make a right. By making an exception to one script, people can then argue that their script is just to stop other scripts, even if its not. So, zero-tolerance is probably still the right way to go about it.

I am 100% certain Riot will have. Better script detection than any click here for free scripts detector program. Making or using a script in anyway shape or form is and always will be bannablw

If anything you should probably talk with Ruit directly. These forum boards aren't run by them, but they do check up on them. But I do agree with Daklore. You are basically cheating to the cheater. While in your mind it might be right what about the people you are playing with? They could be confused by all that and report you since you are a scripter as well! It just seems really complicated.

Yes it is a problem. But it's obviously something they cannot fix. Can you list any online game that is hack/bot/scripter free? It's impossible to get rid of these types of people because when you kill one another or a few others take its place while they upgrade their programs.

This is the reason why Riot doesn't outright ban these people. If that were the case they'd upgrade faster and be harder to detect. I just wish they did something to compensate if you have them in our game. It's wrong to lose/gain LP if you were with/against a scripter or anyone hacking the game to get an advantage!

Is the automated punishment system able to tell the difference between scripts and "anti" scripts?
