I guess his success will depend on how well your president responds to
Nazi salutes ;-)
Anyway, Musk has since admitted* that he did pay someone to boost his
account (that is, give access to an somebody so they could do all the
hardwork of leveling up and getting the good gear; essentially the
rich-man's way of using a console command to add XP and equipment).
According to Musk, "the top accounts in Diablo or POE [Paths of
Exile] require multiple people playing the account to win a leveling
race." The old, 'everybody does it so its okay' excuse. Which -despite
what he thinks - does nothing to prove that he's good at the game. It
just shows that he has more money.
But the whole incident is just another indicator of how petty Musk is.
