Honestly, hiring people to grind for him so that he can play top-tier when he has time to play is not a problem. Being a whiny, dishonest little bitch about it instead of just admitting it up front is the problem.
Also, I think there's a time and a place. Sure, get powerleveled...if you know how to play the game and have done it before, and just want to skip the grind. My own personal opinion of course, but no one should be powerleveling in PoE2...yet.
I haven't seen Elon play Diablo, but I caught some of the controversial PoE2 scam stream and, yeah...he had no freaking clue what he was doing. That does make it worse, in my opinion. He 'skipped the grind'...which was actual gameplay and maybe even tutorials and stuff. I don't see the point of that. Do the grind once, then get leveled next time if you want.
But, yeah, lying and whining was the biggest issue, I agree.
I remember watching the Runaway Guys do a let's play of Star Fox 64, where Emile was ostensibly playing the game for the first time. In order to speed along the process, Jon and Tim played the routes up to the levels he hadn't gotten to yet, without him having to play all the stages along the route, like you're supposed to. As such, when he got to the boss of Area 6, the penultimate boss of the hard route, he got his chassis kicked. Immediately, he complained that the boss was badly designed.
And I was just thinking "My guy. You have skipped over the majority of the gameplay you're expected to have done to reach this point. YOU are badly designed!"

Well, at least he admitted it. How many leftists have admitted they're wrong?
