hi. i’m really unsure as to where i should report this, but i encountered a bot on ladder. i thought they were supposed to be registered and not registering them is a bannable offense, so i’m hoping something can be done about this. replay below.

Please use PS tickets (/report or /help) for this. You are unlikely to get the right eyes on this here.

There is a grace period where bots and owners won't be punished for not being on the register (we're still there).The register is not public in the first place so you're just assuming that they're breaking the rules.
There will be an option to not match with bots on ladder but it's still not implemented, you'll have to be patient.
