Please do something about boost bots

I am getting fed up with dealing with boost bots, you know, the players that have number strings for their names, or have simple names like Jones or Smith with a series of 4 or 5 numbers after them.  All they do is use their tactical and punch the air until they die to the ring.  Also, as I just found out the hard way, the legit player with you that isn't one of them is sometimes the one that owns the boost bot.  I just said I was reporting the boost bot on the chat in my last wildcard match, and the cheater on my team immediately crashed my game.  It even froze my computer up to the point I had to do a restart.  I'll never threaten to report one again, I'll just go ahead and do it.  I did manage to report two of them today.  I went to "disruption" and then "inactive during match."  

A guy was interviewed on a youtube channel and bragged that he makes six figures every year just playing apex and selling accounts with predator badges on them, and he even said the largest customer base was fathers who wanted to impress their sons that played apex, and wanted to be able to enjoy their game time with their sons.  When my dad was alive if he would have spent $200 to ruin a video game designed to bring people happiness just so he could have a fake badge with a dinosaur skull by his name, I would have asked my dad what I did to fail him as his son that he felt he had to buy a fake badge that shows he is good at pretending to shoot at people, while ruining the experience for everyone else.

(ok, I'll get off my soapbox)  If the devs somehow read this or get this message, please get rid of all forms of cheating in this game, but especially this, because even when you do have a chance of winning these matches despite all the modders and people that are better than you, when you are short a person on your team and the other person is only there to build accounts and doesn't care about winning it handicaps your ability to play.
