QUESTION: Was Paul implying that people were "faking it" in Corinth?

No, Paul was not suggesting that no one in the Corinthian congregation REALLY had the gift of speaking foreign languages, or that they were all speaking "gibberish" (as happens in some Pentecostal dénominations today).

We know this because he applied what was happening in the first century to fulfilling bible prophecy (1 Cor 14:21), furthermore, nowhere did the Apostle suggest that WHAT they were doing was wrong, only HOW they were doing it (in a disorganized way). Indeed in verses 26-33 he explains how he would LIKE them to proceed and he INCLUDES speaking in tongues.

If what the Corinthian Christians were doing was in fact "gibberish" "theatrics" NOT induced by holy spirit he would certainly not have councelled them to continue doing it but would surely have told them it had no place in the congregation and that they should "cut it out" and concentrate on other things.

The Apostle Paul was noted for being very forthright and forceful in his letters and had he wanted to tell them that they were not Under holy spirit and were speaking nonsence gibberish, then there is little doubt he would have said so.

"What is our response to divinely authorized headship? By our respectful cooperation, we show our support for Jehovah’s sovereignty. Even if we do not fully understand or agree with a decision, we will still want to support theocratic order. That is quite different from the way of the world, but it is the way of life under Jehovah’s rulership. (Eph. 5:22, 23; 6:1-3; Heb. 13:17)" - w17 6/15 p. 30 par 13
