Rito geht gegen Referrals vor, bestellt am besten jetzt keine!

[Maufeat]

Hey, all.

You're right. Bots have been a growing plague, especially in Dominion. It's something we've been working on for a while, but it's been a complex issue. Botting is like a hydra - cut off one head and two more spawn in its place. Recently, it's become clear to us that in order to tackle this issue, we have to get at the root cause, rather than just attacking the bots. Simply banning/deleting bots would be akin to cutting off a hydra's head, and we need to sear the stump so it can't regrow. We need to address the motivation for botting and punish the beneficiaries, not just the bots.

I'm sure you guys can understand that the more we talk about our plans in detail, the easier it is for botters to "level up" their game as well. So, even though we can't share our specific plans, please be assured that we are taking this seriously, and we're aggressively working toward slaying this beast.

So as you can read, riot is try to do something with against Referrals.

the important things if you want to buy refs:

We need to address the motivation for botting and punish the beneficiaries, not just the bots.

which means, that you will be punished if you buy refs. (Not sure if they force it and who will be affected)

Might be an good idea to post this in english. I can read german but not everyone does and there are also some english people who would have something to say about this.

as OELABOELA says, would be better if this was in English ..

I get the big picture though, Riot says yet again they want to punish botters and you think we shouldn't do refs?

[€uronymous]

They want to punish Ref-Abuse/Eloboost etc. all the time and nothing special happened.

Ofc they say "we'll do sth." when they get addressed to this issue or do u think they'ld just answer "We don't give a ****".

I think they mean that the bot owner will get punished
