Well here i am ... playing ARAM as usual all nice and good. Everything would be ok if tehre weren't players who use damn bots! Litereally i played a game 15 mins ago and there were 4 botted players and 3 in enemy team. And how does riot expect that ppl play the game? All the reports are useless since i'm the only one who reports.

The behaviour of bots in ARAM:

  1. AFK in base till you hear "Minions have spawned"
  2. 0 communication! If there's a communication it's usualy "What's wrong with my computer?" "Push" "Push turret"
  3. they attack only minions, in worst case they attack the camps

So Riot what are you gonna do about that? I can send you videos of AT LEAST 10 games i've played in ARAM taht included botted palyers.

Your reports aren't useless alone, all reports do is flag them for review, and it only takes one report to do that; more reports don't make the system review them more thoroughly.

Low level/elo bots suck, but they are very difficult to stop entirely because accounts are free so they are made in mass. Most don't last very long, but bot bans are done in waves so they may sometimes survive longer than expected because they're waiting on the next ban wave. If you get your level/MMR up you'll stop seeing them entirely though (they can't win so they stay at the very bottom, and get banned before they get far).

They're obviously not going to do anything since it's been going on so long. They're probably benefiting from the bots in some way. If that's not the case, then your report probably doesn't work because it gets lost in the flood of 5 bot vs 5 bot games that it played before it met you.

That's what you get for playing ARAM

What do you mean you're the only one that reports them? I report them. In every ARAM bot thread, the OP reports them. I've talked with allies and opponents about whether champion x or y is a bot, and they say they will report them. Who the fuck ISNT reporting them?
