It appears that an anon on /pol/ was just trying to unload some crappy laptops for big bucks, but then it turned into something else entirely. Claimed that laptops listed with serial number 'TPW P4-15-NB' had dirt on Hillary. The Q idea grew from there and then others claimed to be the true source. From then on it took on a life of its own.

See for original 4chan post from 2016 containing content matching the serial numbers.

The images have the .xif stripped out so it is not as if we can determine the current year. They are high resolution but upscaling could account for that as well. The fact that they aren't on image search could also mean that they were taken by the original copypasta maker but none of that ties the images to the claim that Q was going to be used to sell laptops especially since his posts were "not named" and also miraculously unlinked in this text file. You can annotate any picture with any amount of bullshit you want and it still does not link the two together.

Claims:

Possession of laptops. Irrelevant but possibly proven. Poster of threads about laptops: Irrelevant but possibly proven. Origin of Q: Unproven. Possibly disproven considering there were 229 Q posts before November 25 2017 when the migration to 8ch happened in #230 with 0 instances of the word "laptop" which first appeared on Dec 4 2017 in #247.

You're not understanding.

This guy was not Q, but started it as an act before, and then 'Q' as you know him came to be from that idea.

No it seems as if I'm understanding perfectly well and it is the story that is full of shit.

  • First post 10/28/2017 #1

This is confirmed by the OP saying his first post was about Hillary being arrested, and that it is the biggest Q debunk.

  • First instance "Q" 11/01/2017 #34

4 days later, the idea has a name.

  • Migration 11/25/2017 #230

And so there were 24 days where these posts had a name, were still on 4chan, and the OP wasn't offering any competing posts, didn't mention Alice & Wonderland in the .txt, etc.

So then I am to believe that this OP allowed himself to get hijacked by a random 4chan mod, stood by and did nothing about it for 3 weeks despite being in possession of super 1337 laptops that he couldn't figure out how to TCP/IP release on to get a new IP to circumvent bans, and then continued to do nothing about the "story" that was taken from him until he put a random .txt up on a directory full of other "misc." things? To what, make it mysterious? And what, are you going to tell me that he was posting Q lore before the post he claims is the first post and is linked to Q as a debunk which is the first post on fucking qanon.pub?

No, this is the worst LARP in the history of LARPing.

"the story that is full of shit"

Yes, this exactly. It is shit, and then Q copied it.
