This is something that seems incredibly stupid as bot matches are easy to win usually as long as there are a couple people who are actually trying to win, however, intentionally feeding the enemy bots to try and extend the game time so that you get more experience is stupid and shouldn't be allowed. If someone is willing to do this in a bot match what will they do in a normal or even ranked match if they don't get their way? This player when asked why they were doing this admitted in chat that they were doing it to get more experience and didn't care if they were reported because "you don't get banned in a bot match". If this doesn't show enough evidence to have players like this suspended at least and warned then RIOT really doesn't care about some players. Yes, it's only a bot match but some players use that to unwind and relax because they know it's not going to be horribly difficult....then if you have someone like this intentionally trying to extend the game, and make it more difficult and possibly have a DC on top of that then it becomes much less of a relaxing unwinding time and more frustrating one. I hope that there is similar punishments for players like this in BOT matches as there are in normals, or ranked. Thank you for your time.

Yes, the standard rules do apply in Co-Op vs. AI matches. For instances like this, simply use the report feature for "Intentional Feeding/Griefing". The report will be reviewed and the player will be punished as appropriate. I'm sorry you had this negative experience, and if there's anything else I can help you with, please let me know.

Bot games are a bit of a mess, and yes, I have noticed a tendency for people to not get punished in them. Harassment, feeding, going AFK, and scripting all seem to be quite common.

Fortunately, the stakes are so low that it's easy to brush this sort of thing off.

Happened to me once, but I just shrugged it off.
