for the anon asking about the past vibe of the boards on half/cbts
i can only speak to my experience - there seemed to be an excitement around the decodes and the Q team posting and amazement that (maybe) there would be some justice
there were a lot more decodes happening in real time - typically a line by line guess - trying to make connections to real world events
Q team was not the first of these types of posters though - they were preceded by Mega and FBIAnon, etc - and like the others, Q were called larpers by many at first
then gained more traction as more anons believed, then the shills leap in with shillfest Nov 2017 and then we moved to 8
the "proof" that Q was still Q once we migrated, wasn't automatic and came with much gnashing of teeth and more shills (eye-roll) and more inter-anon drama (split boards)
>how did you come to accept Q as Q?
for myself, i was skeptical and just interested in the discourse (similar to FBI/Mega, etc…)
sometimes harder to discern at the beginning because there were several posters with different voices (at least one female)
but then again, it felt more like a conversation with the team and it seemed easier to get a feel for which of the team was posting
>read here for a whole past thread, not just the Q posts, and its not much different than what you experience here today - shills and naysayers included

id: WBXFv1gI was/is Q team
also read this one - pay attention to DTTT (id:Bl9kCK9HWxy) - how he reacts to Q posts - later made famous by "pick up the phone" - kek

there were several "spoopy" experiences re: Q that finally convinced me we were dealing with something a bit different - I am not the only anon who had some interesting interactions on the board during this time
<LdR drink the water was the least of these
at the end of the day, there was something in the feeling of the posts. the same way i could feel if it was a "helper" or a shill. it takes time to learn discernment.
sounds like I've gone all "night shift" on you, and apologies for the book, but I hope this helps in your search for meaning in all of this
