It has been posited that Q was a larp and there are tons of shills here to reinforce that viewpoint. Well, maybe.

But if Q was just some guy larping -- wouldn't it follow that he was the type of person who liked attention? And if he had just completed 3+ years of successfully pulling off the biggest larp in history, fooling millions of people world wide -- wouldn't he be bragging about that right about now? Wouldn't he want the recognition of having accomplished such an amazing feat? Wouldn't he be getting free drinks in every pub and doing interviews for tv and magazines?

Or would he just go back to playing his video games and keep it all a secret, so nobody ever knew it was him?

Maybe, but probably not. Think about that.
