Report Idle Item-Farming Bot Here!
Maybe it's a good idea to put all their names here and let the developer know how serious this problem is getting.

Q&A:
1) Which game mode has the most bots?
-I found this problem serious in Causal 4v4 match, where 3 members on each team are bots with the same name. (e.g. Marry01 Marry02 Marry03 on Blue, Chris07 Chris08 Chris09 on Red)

2) Why not switch to Competitive?
-First, this doesn't solve the problem.
-Second, it takes ages to queue and join a Competitive match.

3) What should I do when I see those bots?
-Firstly, report the bot accounts using the in-game report system.
-Secondly, save the replay (if possible).
-Thirdly, take a screenshot of their names (while in-match) and upload it to Steam, then put the link here (or just type their names here). [Examples Below]

4) How to win the match?
-Usually, the game only consists of 6 idle bots, an AI player and You. This is a great opportunity for You to farm xp (scoring goals) and earn achievements.

Yes it is shaming.

Also reporting ingame may take a little while as it has to be reviewed by an actual person of the support team.

Posting screenshots of people you apparently say are "bots" will do guess what?...Absolutely nothing as devs rarely come around these parts.

You can report them ingame.

Also naming and shaming isn't allowed.

You can still report them as "inactive players"

This is not shaming, as they're all bot accounts, not real people's names. Reporting them in-game might take longer than reporting them here.

That's all we can do, at least.
