Question for killer mains Bots or humans

If people become bots, I will only kill them and let the players leave. But I'm not a killer main. I was just wondering how killer mains thoughts on this. I just had a match where a random was afk, got hooked and became a bot. The killer then went on to ignore the bot and tunnels the other two players hard. After the other two died killer finally knocks the bot but doesn't hook them. I figure it's just a bot with 3 gens left, I'll let the bot die and then it's a play for the hatch. Killer picks up bot right before bleed out and lets them up and goes on a hunt for me. I was baffled… I could have just did a gen, let killer find me and do a chase until I die but I was just curious. The match went on for another 30 minutes! I had to go to bed so I just stopped hiding. Just my opinion, killer did nothing wrong but it just seemed like odd. like mental problems odd.

    If one, or specially two disconnect and theres more than 1 gen left, i usually let the humans go.

    If theres 2-3 humans and a bot and only one or two gens left, thats fair play.

    Depends, if there are 3 bots because I was "Killing" it, I just let them all go. Its boring against the bots.

    Under no circumstance I let a bot survive.

    I'll ignore humans until robots are out.

    On the plus side, it gives some respite to players as they've lost a player.

    Bots can be difficult to catch since they always have "wall-hacks" on the killer. (Try to "mind" game something who always know exactly where you are.)

    I"ll also make sure to let at least one player survive, depending on how bat the rage-quit was.
