Elon Musk cheating playing Path of Exile 2

[Notch7]

Yup, world's richest man has a strop with a gamer who calls out his cheating.

Narcissists do what they gotta do

Isn't it more that winners hate to lose. There are stories of trumpf doing well at golf on that basis.

 

[IT Minion]

It's weird that he lies about it and brags about game playing despite it being clearly bullshit. There's no need for it.

 

[Odds]

No. It's more akin to dictator's like the President of Turkmenistan or North Korea who have to win at everything to ensure they maintain an image of power.

Winners. You mean cheats and liars

He sees himself as the best and is simply correcting the mistakes he made in order to maintain that narrative.

Lying and cheating then

Lying and cheating then

To remain active, liars have to be protected by others.

It's a game, get over it.

It does not matter if you cheat or not, win or lose, die or not, it's still a video game.
The dead will respawn to play again, the losers will get another chance to try and win, the winners will lose another game.
It's not real life, it's just a video game and having fun is the name of the game.

I once tilted a pinball machine.

You do understand the type of people that cheat, just to appear better than they actually are?

I don't even understand why he wants to be gaming, but thats his choice.

But why bother (possibly) lying about it?

If it is indeed true that he paid minions to do it, what does that say about a man that who has the ear of the president of the USA?

There is something very odd about Musk. The fact that he has so much influence over a transaction incoming president, should be worrying.

 

[fillyboy]

I never paid anyone to tilt the pinball machine.

 

[opps]

I once tilted a pinball machine.

I never considered lifting and moving a pinball machine to be cheating. I was playing within the parameters. That said, I have never been in a position to spend +$250m to become the unofficial president of the USA. I will give musk about 3 months before Trump divorces him, Musk is already backtracking on his claim to reduce the budget by $2T. Then again, Donnie is rolling back on his promise to reduce the cost of eggs.

PLUS ÇA CHANGE

 

[IT Minion]

He seems to have paid people to level his character and then claimed it was his own efforts.

In computer game territory that's viewed very negatively. Gamers hate people who have paid to skip the grind.
