Get a bot game? Dodge ! Stick it to the man. League will have to work harder on improving their bot detection if they see its impacting games more (lets hope). If more than one bot on either team.. i dodge. Banning bots is more pointless .. as they just create new ones.
I just posted in another thread regarding what I've read about Riot's take on bots:
Contrary to what a few people have mentioned, Riot has implemented cheat detection as well as cheat prevention measures. However, it's a constant battle between the bot developers and improving the anti-cheat system. Riot has in fact been working on reducing/eliminating botting, but it's a long battle (similar to the botting that you would see in games like RuneScape and how pervasive macroing was).
What you can do as a player is report the bots for Intentionally Feeding and Using Hacks. This way, those bots are flagged and can be dealt with accordingly. If you have any questions or concerns, don't hesitate to ask!
Reporting bots does help, as it's a lost resource for the individuals/groups who use botting as a means of income. As you report bots, players' access to botted accounts decreases and the groups that profit on bots lose revenue.
I think the main problem with bots is that in order to prevent reverse-engineering detection methods -- so that the bot scripters don't know what got them flagged and can't update to be hidden after one bot gets banned -- riot bans in waves.
The problem? A bot can just grind its way most of the way to 30 in the time it takes between ban waves. If a bot gets banned pre-30, it costs a script nothing to make another account, so you'll just see the hordes of bots before a banwave gets them.
Riot basically would just need a ton more staff/manpower on constantly banning bots to make them be seen less -- they almost all get banned, but not before they've ruined games for like 2-4 weeks, is all.
Riot wants bots in its matches. This is why they permanently ban individuals but leave no option or other avenue for preventing that individual from ever making another account OR just starting at lvl 30. Eithe rlevel up another account or buy one. This is the community riot wants and continues to provide.
So i just had a similar complain in the Board and this was their response:
_Hey Dereq,
We understand that hacks and exploits hurt the integrity of the game and we are actively looking and punishing these players. The Boards is not the correct place to bring visibility on these players and as such, your post has been removed. Please continue to use our in-game reporting system and send a Player Support ticket in. _
SO MY POST GOT REMOVED because u "cant bring visibility about bots".
