The amount of scripters in bot games ruining new game experience

All I can say is wow. Played this game since s2, never had an alternate account so I decided to lvl one up. I think I had maybe 1 or two games with no scripters, many with 2 or even 3. How does RIOT think this is a good new game experience? How can this game be as old as it is and such little control over that kind of thing. Really sad and I feel bad for people just playing this game for the first time, and ashamed for Riot for letting this get so bad.

Well, if you think about it, Runescape has bots still...

In oldschool Runescape, where the development team is only like 5-10 people, but still. That game is old, and still has bots.

No, but seriously, I feel like the bots (not co-op vs. ai) ruin the game experience in general.

how do you know they're scripting...i thought the same when i made a smurf and then found out some of them are plat...diamonds and even challenger accounts...

scripters usually stick to long range units like xerath from my experience honestly...not many people play the champions that you'd script with.

People script against bots? How is this ruining new player experience? Not like they're playing against the scripters. Sure it gives you an inaccurate representation of real games versus people, but vs ai is pretty much an inaccurate representation anyways. No one plays like the AI (especially beginner bots).

u have no proof they are scripters, people call me scripters all the time but the truth is they are bad.

unfortunately they needed some place to go once dominion closed. They weren't just going to stop selling accounts.. it's good and easy money while the owners do other stuff.

Edit: to the other players posting here, I assume he means bots instead of scripters. (People who used automated programs to level up accounts.)
