Annoyed at the Account Leveling Bots flooding the game.

I am right now annoyed almost to the point of being tilted at this game. Almost every game I play in now I get 1 or 2 teammates that are either AFK for the whole game or even worse run by bots that are worse than Co-Op mode enemy bots.

Nothing makes me want to rage quite like seeing a so called human teammate act like a brainless AI by running forward into several enemies and/or enemy turret over and over again. These fake players never say a word and always act exactly the same so it is easy to spot them. But even worse, some of them share common account naming conventions. I'll give you some quick examples.

(To not break naming & shaming guidelines no real names will be used in examples.) Example: 2 names split with a "Kv" in middle. Such as: Blahblah Kv Blahblah, Soandso Kv Soandso, etc. Example: Random jibberish name ending in 4~5 random numbers. Such as: Ahjdafskl5439, UIretgjog1234, etc. Example: One name followed by a bodypart. Such as: Random Chin, Random Ankle, etc.

Even more annoying for me however is that I am the one not the AI who will get penaltized for "queue dodging" if I run into someone with a name similar to the listed above and try to get them to talk in the champ selection lobby without any word for the full timer.

If it is this ridiculously easy to spot the fake players why the hell can't Riot setup something like a "Captcha" prompt which forces people to answer or be disqualified so that the real players don't get penaltized or forced into losses due to these awful things?

I'm not asking for much. All I want is a clickable "Suspected Fake Player" button on your own teammates during champ selection phase that we can click to force them to handle a captcha-esque prompt that only a human player could respond to if we suspect they are fake. The player would be given say 20 seconds to answer during which the countdown for everyone else is halted. Failure to answer would give THEM the dodge penalty not us. As they rightly deserve for not being real players anyway.

Maybe, just maybe, this would stop these annoying account leveling bots if they couldn't get into any matches without dodge penalties.
