RE RE: Bots in Aram games.

So my previous thread got deleted for being in the wrong section claiming that it goes in player behavior and moderation. So if a Red or a forum moderator would like to explain as to why it belongs there that would be extremely helpful instead of just outright deleting the thread.

that being said I know it may seem insignificant but I myself am closing my wallet off until the bots are at least partially removed from Aram games, or any other game mode for that fact. It's getting disgusting and out of hand and I see nothing being done to ween it or stop it. The bot in my last aram was level 27 which means it's been doing this for sometime now.

Thread got removed again, and again I would like to know why this belongs on this board and not say gameplay since you know...It's altering gameplay.

Anything that could cause a ban goes hear. Bots are banned.
They are banned in waves to not tip off the guys that make them. Report them post game for cheating. Or raise your mmr so bots dont get matched with you since they normally have low mmr.
And why punish riot for them trying to fix what is a roach problem. They can bever weed out all the bots completely because as soon as they do more get created.

Ya know, it is funny. I have been reported for being a bot before, and I am definitely not. Are you sure you just don't agree with their play style?

I have never seen a bot before, and I play quite a bit of aram.

Because this issue has to do with moderation. Gameplay is more like mechanical issues, ideas for champs and other things that have to do with gameplay. People using bots to level accounts is a player behavior. Wanting to do something about it is moderation. They are moderating the game. You see?

Bots ruin low level ARAM, ARAM accounts ruin high level ARAM you just can't win :/ it's my favorite mode as well

By the time you start not seeing as many bots.. is the same time you start to see tons of ARAM only accounts. The time inbetween this is perfect, and it's why I have to keep making new accounts. I would make an ARAM only account but that ruins the random element for me. If they would make it truly random select from all champions.. then we would only have to worry about the (admittedly huge) bot problem.
