He didn’t say “account boosting”, he said they share accounts. I don’t play PoE, much less competitively, so I don’t know if that’s true, but let’s assume it is. Just disclose it. Like, disclose it publicly before you play the game. Don’t deny it after being called out on it and then retaliate against the person calling you out on your platform like a petty manchild, then disclose it in private. If anything, people will respect you more for being someone who doesn’t play video games all day every day like it’s their job.
In PoE 1: racers stream their entire race. Once a league Zizaran hosts the Gauntlet (HC/SSF) race event, streaming on Twitch (often with a 4-panel split screen). They sub out different races to highlight boss fights and whatnot. You have to provide proof of any “bounty” you won. There are some cash money prizes, so this is all very strict.
During these races, players often have a timer showing how long they’ve been going, and it’s not unusual to see 37 hours of straight streaming the first day. GGG hosts World Firsts events after XPac stuff, and is mindful of exploits.
That is all PoE 1. PoE 2 is in early access; it’s the same people, so it should be the same integrity. I know a lot of Diablo folks came over for it, so I can’t speak for them.

Account sharing is against GGG’s ToS.

I’m sure it is but clearly that doesn’t stop anyone.
Ya, but the rest of what I wrote explains that it would be hard to do without the community calling you out for it.
I don’t understand what that has to do with this conversation.
You asked if it’s common in PoE, I’m saying nope :)
Its obvious he doesnt play the game either and showed
