Few days ago I played a ranked game where the support was just walking on the direction of the wall in the fountain the whole game, needless to say had a tough experience fighting a 4v5 ranked game.

This had to be some sort of a bot since I don't think people are insane enough to manually hold down the screen to walk around. All 4 of us reported the support and moved on.

Few days later (just now), I had a Brand support who did the same thing, and I now realized it was the SAME account from couple days ago, how was he not banned already?? The Vayne game happened 4 days ago.

This is so sickening since (1) the movement disabled the option to make us vote for the A.I to take over the control (2) make us unable to surrender early and (3) Riot will not automatically give this account penalty ( and he somehow evaded the reports as well apparently). And why have I grouped again with players I reported already?

The worst feeling is that I have to play my heart out and won the game, then realizing I am adding elo to this AFKer as well. This made my gut feel ill. Please look into this matter Riot.

We've got a new AFK detection method running behind the scenes that will detect players like this. We've completed our manual review to make sure we're not catching a lot of innocent folks. We're just waiting to do some final tuning before turning it on. Unfortunately it won't still won't allow AI takeover, because the player is actively inputting.
