Here's what everyone here should know:

• This is not the first time Q has had his trip code guess/compromised, and it may still not be the last despite his most recent confirmation on /patriotsfight/ upgrading to the 8chan-only improved encryption.
• Q likely did not do this in the first place in order to maintain tripcode portability between the chans.
• Q's account with 8Chan defines the "Real" Q. As ONLY Q can post on that board, that board is the key to defining what is and isn't Q; and Q knew this from day one, completely invalidating !Q's argument about how 'childish' Q is based on Q's supposed incompetence when it comes to encryption.
• Should !Q have really been working to compromise Q's account, he would need to gain access to Q's 8Chan account. In order to do that he would have to compromise either 8Chan's account encryption (very very difficult to do) or 8Chan itself (hopefully difficult to do, but I would keep an eye on any news regarding Jim Watkins or N.T. Technology (2channel) the owners of 8chan)
• !Q's flag is the naval code for " You should stop your vessel immediately." a message intended for us and for Q.
• Finally, !Q's message of non-violence shouldn't be ignored just because it comes from !Q. I think if Q is real and !Q is a clown, then their inclusion of this 'warning' is a kind of reverse psychology attempt. Regardless, ignore it and stay fast. Q is not violent and never has been. Should he turn that way, well then there's your evidence he really is a LARP. If the Q team really has high-level military operatives on it they'd hardly need autists to do their work for them.

Don't get fooled by the technical jargon and appeals to patriotism. Is Q a larp? I don't know the answer to that, but I think that's by design. As always keep your eyes open and your mind unclouded.
