What happened to QStrategy? I noticed his account disappeared over the weekend. Was he banned?

With a script, he edited every comment he ever made to:
u/#q974
After that, he deleted everything.
Given the context of being banned, this sounds like he suspected the board is substantially compromised.
QStrategy is one of my favorite posters on here, but I recall at least one member recently, who believed him to be a high effort longterm shill. I have seen a few posts of QStrategy and an old account that I suspect was also him, MAGACoin -- that fit the patterns tactics strategies of a very subtle and highly competent shill. There were a few odd but dismissable, inconsistencies. Maybe he felt like he was close to being discovered? Maybe he overplayed a tactic and broke character?
Nuking his post history like this would accomplish 2 things.
Removing history, to prevent analysis of posts.
Sow distrust and paranoia in community.
I could be entirely wrong on my perception of this. Like I said, one of my favorite posters. Vet your sources here. If a poster is one that posts excellent authoritative big brain content, be extra vigilant.
Leaving content up, especially good searchable information given in good faith and representing good research and research practices -- that will be missed.
It is what it is. This (GAW) is one little battlefield in the larger information war. Don't be naive to think we are beneath the DS' attention and efforts.
Also be aware that seizing moderation and control of a board is the highest prize for the glowies.
Like I said, it is what it is. Be vigilant.

A post from 8kun dig on Ingersol Lockwood and MJ12. Both are LARPs. The thread also goes into detail on glowie DS strategies and tactics to disrupt online communities. VERY HIGH VALUE READ.
Could be for completely opposite reasoning also.
There was an interesting Qult HQ thread where they had figured out Qstrat's reddit acct and he was clearly playing both sides citing trolling as their motivation.
I'm not sure what to think of Qstrat to be honest. They are a "new" acct looking back to the voat days or heck, even back b4 the plebbit purge. Or at least, they didn't use the same username....
On the surface, Qstrat seemed like a new user to the research groups, that posted with obvious previous experience and they had a tendency to post both interesting (yet old) topics and link Qult/TMOR drama here near daily.
This looks highly suspicious to me. Either they were intentionally stirring up attacks or fodder for the cretins on reddit or it was inadvertent unwanted attention. Yet, seemingly they didn't trust the user either.... So Im not sure if at worst QStrat was a troll or shill building up to something for self gain or just liked pissing in those idiot's cereal and the repercussions be damned?
I remember he did some "show me yours, show you mine" type threads that were suspect. "your awakening story" or "we got big brains, bragging thread". That's glowie playbook shit. Also I posted in a recent thread about Kari Lake and everyone sceptical of her was immediately met with organized obvious shill opposition, and in that thread he was uncharacteristically trivial and pro-Kari.
The Qult shit sounds like sowing chaos and force multiplying shills.
He also had a tendency to drop a long cookie cutter background story to troll for users to overshare back, but promptly disengages conversation afterwards.
Also possible a lot of his info is old and possibly gathered by a team, who gathered it from real anons, he just reposts it -- and for a successful smart guy he has a lot of time to be doing research and operating on multiple forums? That account could be a team. If I'm wrong, then he can take this part as a compliment.
