>But they would reproduce to the point where it is inevitable that they would need to take up every space/resource they can
WRONG.
More advanced societies here on Earth have negativepopulation growth( Japan) or only grow because of immigration from less advanced societies.
Our ONLY model says advanced societies SHRINK, not grow.

>they could use energy and resources for our solar system to help create more colonies.
>could
Could != Must
...and unless they're growing to some hypothetical nearly unlimited size, why would they need our resources?

>literally not a single alien has visited us.
AGAIN, we;ve been recording history for a TINY fraction of the Earth's history. We have NO idea what was going on here a billion years ago, and even massive alien presence just a thousand years ago (0.0000217% of the Earth's existence) wouldn't have been remembered as "people who came from some other star".
Even suggesting we'd know about a tiny fraction of alien visitors is really arrogant.

>we should be able to see them everywhere even in our own solar system.
We know that most of the liquid water in the solar system is off Earth, but we've never looked in a single drop of it.

Wow, so you... own this thread? Jeepers!

Before I go though: I'm a 4chan denier. I don't think 4chan exists, and unless you prove me wrong you just GET OFF THE BOARD! NOW!!!

>Nobody knows?
Google does.
Photons are made of energy and are created from other energy as needed.
It's like you're asking "If married couples come from wedding chapels, why do wedding chapels "hold" couples? Is the chapel basement full of hundreds of couples?"

>If it's possible to make a simulated universe with self aware programs AT ALL, then there would be millions of fake universe per real ones
You're ignoring the possibility that it may be possible to create physical universes, .
Do the simulated universes outnumber the physical universes?

Who the fuck knows?
Besides the number of universes is meaningless.
Oh, sure, if you were a universe, speculating on the nature of your origin it might help to know the ration of physical universe to virtual universes, but you're a person, not a universe.
We're completely in the dark as to the relative population of physical vs virtual universes.
But even if we ignore nested physical universes, if each level n universe has a population at least double the population of the level n+1 universes, most people will exist in the top level physical universe.
