Could the Borg know of the Q?

Post by Superman »

I wonder if the Borg know of the existence of Q. Since the Q rely on no technology that we know of, and they are probably immune to assimilation, Q would most likely be irrelevant to them.

If we throw the Queen into the picture, then perhaps she might have some personal interest in Q. If there was something to be gained by them then she would probably try to exploit it.

We once heard Q say to his son, "don't provoke the Borg!" The statement was so vague, though, that we really don't know what to make of it.

The Borg know all about The Q. Picard was assimilated by the Borg,
and thus, they know all that he knew.

Ah, good point! Correct you are. I wonder if the Borg even care...

The queen could try to seduce him. Lets face it, it's not that far past Janeway to get down to her. :D

Yes, btu would Q play with the Borg the same way he did to the Federation?

Q's admonishment to his son might have been a warning in the interests of preventing collateral damage. The Borg, while maybe not menacing to the Q, are serious threats to most other societies in the Milky Way. So if Q's son prodded the Borg, it could result in the assimilation of a few more societies...

Well, if you think Q is sadistic, he could also have been warning his son to not bother the Borg because he wanted to mess with the minds of some primitive societies that would otherwise be assimilated :twisted:
