Seems like it's impossible to get an ARAM match going without at least two feeder bots on each side. What are these abominations? Why do they all have such lame two-word names? Does there need to be a captcha to join matches now?

Yep. Rito needs this now. DAMN YOU BOTS
SHAKES FISTS DAMN U BOTS
Luciasar2 votesSeriously. If it wasn't such an extreme problem I would consider captchas a nuisance, but I just played a game with 6 slots out of 10 being filled by bots. That's not just a nuisance, that's a catastrophic failure of the system. If I wanted to play terrible, terrible feeder bots, well... I couldn't even find them on intro classic, because even those things are better than the lemmings these IP farmers cook up.
ThatAutofillSupp6 votesthe same has been happening at twisted treeline and I'm sure dominion probably has the same problem. i hope riot fixes this soon… even if it could be a easy win/loss…i play the game for fun not ip

Wish they would fix sooner than later. Helped lots of new players in TT but now I'm lucky to get any humans at all.
ThatAutofillSupp2 votesYeah, aram/3v3's are just some fun time for me to get out of the 5v5's and just have fun in the other game modes….but now bots are overrunning them and we haven't even had a official riot post about it (from what I've seen) that says they will fix/think of a solution and theres been a BIG amount of complaints about this…..maybe if they put bots in the new twisted treeline game mode they will notice it
Der Lindwurm4 votesSure would be fun to have an actual 5 vs. 5 for a change. -_- I thought Garen was just really broken in ARAM when I had 38 kills. It took a lot of fun out of it when I realized there was no way real humans were playing these suicidal lemmings.
Feed a poro! Let the other humans know who you are! We real humans need to stick together!

Is gotten to the point that at every champ select I say "Say I if not a bot." I shouldnt have to do that
Tesla Effect2 votesShush, thats not the worst thing. The worst is getting a team with descent champions (and thats if you are lucky ) and then the enemy team getting cheap-ass broken champions that will win a game easy case the can poke you while you cant get over their bulky tank.

It has been stated before that ARAM is not meant to be a balanced experience so said complaint is invalid.
John Do32 votesIf the made 1 IP purchase mandatory at lv7 it would help with the referral bots, and an RP purchase at or before lv12 would be able to cut out the farm bots by a little, at least short term. They do provide each new account with RP so this would be a viable option.
1601121122 votesIt used to be that the feeders are noobs. Now it is bots, who are WAY WORSE. Captcha is a very good solution (though it pains me that we have to resort to such measures)
Duke Dryfocker2 votesi also wrote a thread about this! Please upvote it s we can get an answer from RIOT! Bots are OUT OF CONTROL!
Ulric Greatsword2 votesYou know it's bad when you have to ask people if they are NOT bots.
Stop the Botpocalypse 
, Rito!
Der Lindwurm2 votesAwesome run with 4 bots on my team. "We" lost in 7 minutes.
Sphinxxy1 votesI literally had a game today that consisted of people named "Yolanda, Lisa, Gavin, Michaela, Nancy and Michelle" All had first names and weird last names. The ones that I suspected that we're bots followed me right into my base, while getting attacked by the turrets and died. They would only attack minions, and I rarely lost any health throughout the whole game. And these accounts we're levels 25-29? These can't be real people. This is getting ridiculous. I noticed two reoccurring last names so far that these bots have Toru and Boomer. I just logged in and qued up a match just to see what I would get, all of them were bots.
dutchM1 voteshow long until bots invade higher elos?! i have like 500 wins on aram but haven't seen bots.. im scared!!1
pockettmouse1 votesgoogled lol bots and literally the first 2 sites were links to download bot hacks! Can't Riot get these sites taken down or something? I Just played a couple of arams with the other team being all bots and 2 bots on our team as well. They are getting worse and worse! What I've noticed is typical bot names are 2 random names(ex. Smith John), random name with 2 numbers at the end (Ex Edmond42), or just a bunch or random numbers (ex. 0123456)
They don't say anything, buy random items, and follow not bot champs around!
Der Lindwurm1 votesSeems they're still a big problem despite some changes to the referral system. That might not have even had much to do with most of these bots if the purpose is to tell accounts with tons of farmed IP.
The good news is that if you endure all this long enough you'll eventually work your way up to a level that the bots don't climb to because they play so indescribably horribly. But they still do appear sometimes at higher levels and beginners shouldn't have to go through weeks of bot hell.
