BackingUp MTGox Accounts/Bitcoins

Hello guys,

I might be asking a noob question, but I have been looking online to find an answer to my question and decided to ask the forum...

Let's say, for some reason MTGox website is gone... how do people get access to their bitcoins?
On blockchain you can make an offline backup and make a "paper wallet" etc.. but what happens to the bitcoins on MTGox? how do someone retreieve those if there's no more access to MTGox?

Thank you very much

You can't. It's completely controlled by Mt.Gox. If you want paper backups and all that stuff, you should store it on your own client (like blockchain.info).
