His tripcode is a by-product of two things, his pw and a hashing function. I'm sure the real Q's pw is secure and with him.

What appears to have happened is an elaborate spoof, where if you only have one half of the pair, but you have the output you want, you then play around in a sandbox with hashing functions that produce the output you want Q's tripcode and substitute that temporarily to run the fake.

That would require very high level, site-admin or network engineer privileges and either way it is an utter compromise, even if repaired with the old, secure hash right afterwards.

I'm not one agreeable to being gamed.

The Anon posting the manifesto has caps showing a salt change and changeback with the change period being when Q magically shows up, posts 3 meaningless posts with the correct tripcode showing to the system, then disappears and the salt got rotated back to what it was.

THAT NEVER HAPPENS. There are only a few possible explanations and none are good, but all point to absolute compromise and likely worse, a high or top level subterfuge to decieve the board, and by proxy, the world for reasons that are obvious with a home-ec level of finance savvy.

Anon has decades of experience in extremely high level security and a graduate degree in business. I'm about ready to vomit.

I look forward to meeting you. You will not.

It was. It will. Watch them now. Actions speak loudest. Sperg blossoms.

I've been here since Month 1. This will likely bring down the board. It's that bad.

Getting shills to expose themselves almost makes this worth it. They know they're fucked and the world will know it within a week.

Because I feel betrayed. Like when you first learn about some cheating, but refuse to believe and then you see the proof and the pit of your stomach rolls over. That's why. Betrayal. This could only have been done at highest levels of trust and that trust was more than anyone's, ours. The everyday for almost 5 years, Anons.
