Elon, you don't need to apologize for anything.

You've shown the people you were trying to impress, exactly who you are. A liar, a cheat, a pay2win newb pretending to be hot shit but failing terribly on it, the worst kind of gamer that most gamers have encountered.

We don't know that, it's not like he is out there publicly doing Nazi salutes in front of thousands ...

Exactly! All the Respectable News Outlets®©™ have said he just has an awkward wave! Nothing to see here!

Do believe it was thrice

[–] [email protected] 12 points 2 weeks ago

It was just an awkward wave! And you might have heard him say Sieg Heil, but he was just awkwardly sneezing, he's just a silly awkward boi.

I see we've hit the "it wasn't that big a deal" part of the Narcissist's Prayer.

And if it was, it's the dems fault for not having a good enough platform to avoid this

He should deal with his accounts being banned, because account sharing is against the tos in both games.

I suspect neither company wants to piss him off, but holy shit, that would be *chefskiss*

GGG is based out of New Zealand, they don't have to care about any political ramifications unlike Actiblizz

New title: Rich guy who has bought his way into everything in his life admits to buying his way into boosting his accounts, internet expresses great lack of surprise.

[–] DaddleDew 39 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

You forgot: expresses a complete lack of moral capacity to understand why he should feel bad about it.

I am so fucking sick of hearing about this twat in every corner of my life.

If he lies about this then what else does he lie about?

[–] DarkFuture 24 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Like Donald Trump, I just assume he's lying if sounds are coming out of his mouth.

He lost the benefit of the doubt in 2018 when he falsely accused a rescue worker of being a pedophile.

[–] BeMoreCareful 6 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

What's crazy is that he seemed kind of normal beforehand.

"What would I be appologizing for?"

Just one thing, lying and claiming that you accomplished the progress in the games yourself.

It's interesting that his thought process is, "It's not cheating, everyone does it which means this is fine!"

I mean, the thought process he's admitting to here is interesting in light of Trump thanking Musk for "He knows those computers better than anybody. All those computers. Those vote-counting computers. And we ended up winning Pennsylvania like in a landslide."

[–] RampantParanoia2365 8 points 2 weeks ago

Most certainly, "everyone" does not feel compelled to pay people to have fun for them.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 weeks ago

Not exactly "interesting" - he's just deeply narcissistic. Here's a handy guide:

"That didn't happen.

And if it did, it wasn't that bad.

(Current story sits here)

And if it was, that's not a big deal.

And if it is, that's not my fault.

And if it was, I didn't mean it.

And if I did, you deserved it."

What cracks me up is I prefer pve. I like cooperative play but not really competitive play in games. It always seemed to me the pvp community had so many people looking to get an advantage or were ok with cheating. Funny thing is it does not even matter if you cheat in pve as its just your own gameplay. I mean like in doom I would do the full map cheat when I got to the exit to go back and get everything but I did not want it till I got through the level. I mean its still cheating but there is a reason I did not use the unlimited ammo or health or such codes.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 2 weeks ago

Don’t care if he doesn’t feel bad about it, I know he sucks, fucking poser

[–] zecg 3 points 2 weeks ago

He was playing using a neuralink prototype, that's why he looked as if he was abusing ketamine

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 week ago

The dude has no integrity, or he would care about being caught in a lie.
