League of Bots - The true Doom Bots infectings LoL

Hello, hello~ Just another post about how there are player bots literally flooding the game. At the very least, Co-op vs. AI is flooded and I know it's not exactly uncommon that you see them in ARAM. With how obvious they are to spot in champion select alone, you would think Riot would be doing something about this; but then again, Rito's got their money from crafting, so who cares what the players think, right? Even then, you would think the players are doing something about it (such as simply reporting any bots they encounter) but half the time it seems as though they just leave the game right after and don't report the player bots. And if they are reporting them, then I guess it comes down to, again, Riot not doing anything. Buuttt~

Here is my small attempt to help point out more obvious bots that players should be reporting. (Most my knowledge comes from Co-op vs. AI, as where player bots are most common.)

Common 1: Low summoner level Spells Ghost and Heal No Mastery Speak in chat, "WTF", "Frozen", "GJ" Builds duplicate items or items that simply make no sense. Often executed, feed without any sense of fear, recall at or behind second turret (closer to base), generally go mid lane /Always/ choose from free champion rotation (most likely own no champs and go random), /always/ wait on minions to hit lane before leaving turret

Common 2: (More found in PvP) Same as Common 1, minus the speaking Addition, these bots will go any lane but mostly follow around players; traveling occasionally to someone else to follow for a duration.

Uncommon: Summoner level ranges from 0-30 Spells vary among all Summoner Spells Mastery may or may not be present. (The sight of a player bot having them set isn't too uncommon now though.) Do not speak in chat Builds badly but relative to the champion In lane, acts more like a LoL bot by staying behind minions when low HP and making silly engages when high HP. Generally choose from the free champion rotation but can occasionally be on an owned champion (very rare will one of these bots own a skin), /always/ wait on minions to hit lane before leaving turret

That is all for now. Looks like a lot to read I'm sure, but real simple stuff here peeps. So if you see any of these traits on a player, try talking to them like a teammate at first. Some of the uncommon player bots can easily just seem like a new player; however, 100% ALL player bots /will not/ respond to you. Now, obviously not everyone is gonna reply, so I'm not saying to go reporting everyone. Some players mute everyone the second they get in game from what I've heard. But all of us were, or still are in my case, noobs or make nooby plays while in-game. You should be able to tell the difference between an unskilled player and a player bot. And if you can't tell the difference, then don't report them; simple as that. But when you've have 3 people running mid, screaming about their love for Frozen and feeding to no end, you can probably feel pretty safe reporting those players, lol. So let's all put forth a little effort to make playing this game somewhat more enjoyable then it already isn't! :D (I joke, I joke; very sleepy. x3)

They obviously just dont give a shit about bots flooding and ruining the game. They made a billion dollars last year and they cant hire enough people to ban these bot accounts when they get reported. FU riot, spends some of that billion dollars on ridding us of these fucking bots.

I didn't read most of the thread, but I don't need to. I'm just posting here as a show of support.

the most annoying aspect is that the account names are so OBVOUS, it makes it clear, from purely a high level view, that these people have no fear of ever being banned.
