Gonna bet they’re fired now.
He did get caught in a lie by bragging to be a top Path of Exile II player with an extremely highly ranked character and then when he streamed himself playing it became obvious that he had not even a basic understanding of the game’s mechanics, essentially proving to everyone that he paid someone to grind up a character for him.
The guy is a compulsive liar in desperate need for praise. He’s now turning video games into pay to win games for himself.
Also, imagine claiming that you deserve all the money you make because of all the long hours of hard work you put in and yet you still have time to stream video games while being the CEO of several companies at the same time, each of which pay more in an hour than most people will do in a year. What a fucking joke.
Elon Musk is the living proof that meritocracy is dead.
In poe you can add people to your friend list and even if they say no, you have them on the list. There you can track their online status and the-zone they are in.
We can also write /whois Percy-verance in chat to get the same info.
After that stream several people tracked his character and was found online, changing zones nonstop, blasting maps, while he was live on a spaceX conference.
So, not only it’s evident for players that has watched his stream that he is a fucking fraud, but he as been caught cheating, there’s proof.
obvious that he had not even a basic understanding of the game’s mechanics, essentially proving to everyone that he paid someone to grind up a character for him.
That explains the elden ring build too.
Completely forgot about that
I don’t follow streamers or play POE but I understood the ER build. What a joke!
I even play ER with an unconventional build but his was a total pile of bullshit.
bro thought he was the wall but forgot to put the shields on opposite hands
The guy is a compulsive liar in desperate need for praise.
Hmmm… this sounds familiar….
Elon Musk is Lying About Being Good at Video Games
It’s hilarious
A day in the life of a Musk stan must be a sad thing to witness.
You think he actually sleeps in his office? Then proceeds to tweet on the toilet.
One of Elon’s musks fans? I think they live in there mum’s basement and probably do tweet from the toilet.
Soon he’ll be streaming with an unplugged mouse and keyboard while his big brother (hired lackey) plays. Maybe we are already there.
He’s doing the Trump thing where he says someone is terrible even though they’re not. Keep doing it and the uninformed just believe it.
The best part is how much Asmon doesn’t care.
Ok,ok, the best part is how Elon’s own AI, what’s it called, Gronk?, calls him out.

I wonder if he knows that he’s fucking with a lot of his actual supporter base.
The g*mers don’t care. They’re fucking stupid.
They’re fucking stupid.
Lmao
You’re right, that was a silly phrase, g*mers can’t fuck anything, even stupid.
They do tend to fuck themselves over, that’s pretty stupid.
This is literally so fucking pathetic.
That guy is actually amazingly pathetic. It’s just baffling how a middle aged man could have all the fuckin’ money in the world and be so needy for attention as to posture as a video game champion through cheatery and such.
A normal person without major psychological problems would probably just donate a lot of that money to charity and then fuck off to enjoy a life of luxury without trying to be Everything and meddle in everybody’s business. It’s just like watching a James Bond movie villain in real life.
Gonna copy my comment from another post because this one is waaay more active.
Its honestly hilarious. He is doubling down and now fighting that asmongold loser on twitter. He took away his checkmark and everything. Love 2 losers fighting one another.
You mean… Surely not… The prick who lies all the time is lying? Well, I never.
Yeah, so I personally know a guy (my wife’s ex) who turned out like Musk. Like trump too. Goes on nightly message rants, always needs to be in the forefront and if something is cool he always had to claim he’s the best at it.
He is such a sad, sad little man.
Musk does so much shit. He’s the CEO of 3 companies, he’s apparently a gaming streamer now, he’s a presidential advisor and will have an office at the White House, he constantly tweets bullshit. When does he sleep or take time to be a father to all his kids from 2 or 3 different mothers?
He is a alt right brand now. As long as he has the president on his side he only has to steer the public. He does whatever brings him control over people, if that means to act like a 23yo wannabe streamer to spew his propaganda directly to the children of Maga Voters … everything is going to plan.
Edit: If it would be the next big viral thing for men to become a porn star or race driver or whatever it is… Musk would 100% Tap into it. He is only focused on clout not even money any more.
The money is definitely still a priority though. The man has more wealth than is imaginable and is trying to extract a bonus from Tesla that is bigger than their all-time profits.
Money enables him, but if you have an army of mindless idiots behind you (enough to be a significant political/financial influence) money comes easy.
The rich already rig the stock market and hated the GameStop debacle, now imagine them having a stock market ddos attack of Musk-Fans by just orchestrated tweeting and fucking around with robin hood (or whatever X will add into their mega app for this market manipulation).
I thought he only hurt sales recently, why does he need a bonus?
The catch is that he doesn’t put in a lot of time for any of those things. His parenting, for example. He acts like a father just long enough to wear his kid like a bulletproof vest, then fucks off again. In his role as CEO, he’ll dip into a meeting where he’s had all the people who actually do something waiting, he’ll fart out some terrible ideas, make demands, and set deadlines based on nothing at all, and then fuck off again before anyone can point out that he’s not actually useful.
He almost inevitably puts MOST of his time into either obsessing over Twitter or manipulating politics for personal gain. He’s either shitting out more tweets nobody wanted or obsessing over how many people liked whatever shit he forced them to see, or he’s waiving a novelty sized check over President Elect Dump and making demands like making real billionaires just pay negative taxes.
It’s so fucking funny seeing Elon and Asmongo fighting
We’ve had GamerGate, we’ve had GamerGate 2.0 with SBI…
Will we get ElonGamerGate?
I cannot believe how stupid this is, but its quite clear that stupid bullshit drama about videogames and the surrounding commentary community … is actually a major force in shaping the politics of people roughly under 40.
Remove the “gamer”
Elongate
Extend
It’s definitely an odd one, but hey, if Path of Exile is the thing that gets many people to go “hey, he’s a liar”, I’ll certainly take it.
More than happy to see this story spread, as it’s hilarious enough to spread virally, but also makes Musk look pathetic and like a compulsive liar.
I mean, seriously, he’s the richest man on earth, why is his ego so fragile as to need to “prove” himself as a gamer, and to need to prove that so badly as to take a risk like faking that accomplishment live.

Sorry what?
I was playing Subway Surfers.
I cannot fathom choosing to spend my time doing anything like this if I was the richest man on planet earth.
I would be stoned outta my gourd relaxing in the countryside with some ex model and listening to music or something.
I sure as shit wouldn’t be arguing on the Internet with degenerate twitch streamers that can’t even bother to pay for a maid even though they are a multi-millionair.
Elon is a sad pathetic man that currently wields entirely too much power.
You don’t need to be the world’s richest man to do that. You can live the life, for the rest of your life, with a couple million (nowadays maybe a couple tens of millions). To have that much and still want more you’d have to either be incredibly greedy, power hungry or insecure
Having that much money is literally just bad for your brain.
Tom of Myspace fame just hangs out and takes pictures
We didn’t know how good we had it with Tom. Mand swooped in and taught us all basic HTML against our wishes and then vanished into the night. Good man.
You wouldn’t be the richest man on earth though. That’s a process of very selfish immoral steps you wouldn’t take. People that reach that sphere are psychopaths that have the intrinsic need to feel superior.
Well I’m glad Musk is branching out.
Now it’s not just electrical, automotive and software engineers that know he pretends to be an expert in industries he hasn’t the slightest clue in. Gaming consumers can get in on the action.
Maybe more people will have realizations like the user from this old tweet had. It’s kind of pathetic that this is what it would take, but something’s better than nothing, I guess.
