Nah. The older I get, the dumber grinding levels seems to me. I can understand somebody paying to skip literal time wasters.

Paying for them seems a bit dumb. If they're a free option, I don't really see it as any different from an Easy mode.

Depends on the game if it's given to you for free. BF4 gives you an endless amount of EXP multipliers for free.

Nope, who has time to grind anymore? Who am I to shame people who want to play a game, but don't want to dump all their time in grinding?

I do look down on companies selling that feature, though.

Not at all. That's part of why I buy all my multiplatform games on PC these days. If a game has an annoying grind, I can use a mod or cheat engine to reduce the grind, or outright remove the grind. The games are only as grindy as I want them to be.

When I had more free time, it wasn't a problem. I played notoriously grindy MMOs, like MapleStory, and loved it. It takes 8 hours for me to level up once? Amazing, I'm going to play this every day.

I consider it more people being exploited. If they feel a need to XP boost it means that 1: the game sells XP boosts, and 2: the game has probably been designed to intentionally waste your time until you feel compelled to buy an XP boost to get to "the fun parts."

I don't blame gambling addicts for their addiction, so I won't blame a booster for failing to recognize that they're in a skinner box. I blame shitty devs and their publishers for creating the conditions in the first place.

To be fair, AssCreed has been making their games intentionally grindy for a few games now so that they cal sell boosts and then, and they actually go the extra-shitty route of not introducing the boosts until a month after launch so they get all the positive PR from launch day reviews without having to deal with the "selling boosts" controversy.
