Researching the history of the Bitcoin networks and this forum I have discovered that the forum was created as the social media platform for bitcoin discussion and other related topics, the forum is created alongside bitcoin by Satoshi 13 years ago, and ever since the domain has remained active, allowing members to meet and make friends on the forum despite being a privacy-oriented forum. Since Satoshi identity has remained unknown and inactive on this forum since the day 1 of the creation of the forum unless the activities of administrators such as Theymos and others, the thing is what will happen to members network of friends on the forum who may not border in sharing personal contacts e.g email if one day the forum suddenly goes offline how do we link up with each other and keep the discussion going. Just a newbie curiosity question

A lot of people might hop across to stack overflow or reddit. There are other communities highlighted around bitcoin (most bitcoin websites have lists or link to lists - eg https://bitcoin.org/en/community). There's also the bitcoin github that'll stay active as long as bitcoin does (and potentially after) and a lot of other places.

I believe a lot of members who connected here have contacted each other on some other platform, preferably one which members can maintain their privacy on, like discord, telegram, signal etc. If the forum does go offline, they can continue correspondence on those platforms and possibly use that link to contact mutual friends.

True, but if people will be posting there under different nicknames, a sense of community will be lost. We could be interacting with the same people that we interacted with on this forum and not know this. the thing is what will happen to members network of friends on the forum who may not border in sharing personal contacts e.g email if one day the forum suddenly goes offline how do we link up with each other and keep the discussion going.
I never spoke with forum members outside of this forum and have no way of contacting any of them in that way, so if something would suddenly happen to this forum, it would likely mean I'll never share a conversation with all the people to whom I've been talking to all these years.

A number of people on this forum are on this forum for discussion of different matter and to get information about bitcoin and blockchain and in the same time for personal discussion and other chit chat they are connected on their social media and those who do not show their identity are connected on telegram with their nicknames which they are using here. So if any thing like you thought will happen then they will be connected with each other there but still they will lose access to an informative place. By the way we do not need to think like that and have to wish for the lifetime survival of this forum. But it was a though and any person have any kind of thought in their mind. I hope you may got your answer. I also know that the developers of this forum are much expert and they have developed a lot this forum. We may not face any issue any time

I do not want the forum to go offline, it's tiring to even think about it, there is no better community to discuss about Bitcoin than this forum. If the forum goes offline like you asked, the truth is that there is no way we all can keep up with each other, only very few people that have taken their friendship outside of the forum can keep up. Even for those who will move to other crypto communities, they will most likely do so with a different pseudonym, and you wouldn't even know it's them.

Is the forum really a place to make friends or a place to learn and see perspectives of random person's that you have no social or casual relationship with? I think if the forum was created in the model of social media where the purpose is for people to meet and maybe become friends, There would have been a section in our profile that allows us to upload personal pictures. so IMO, i think for making friends is not the primary purpose behind this forum, it can happen, but not the sole purpose of the forum, so do not bother much about what happens if the forum somehow goes offline.

We all don't want Bitcointalk will be going offline, this is our habit, our hangouts that can be relieved by stress reading discussion after the whole day of work. But if that's really happened and Epochtalk didn't yet finish, it could be users here that wanted a discussion might got to these two very common platforms that might alternative to this forum. And for the bounty hunters might here that discussed and have a bounty program of altcoins and shitcoins.

Idk if I read it right, but satoshi wasn't inactive since the day one of forum creation, he was pretty active not until the wikileaks take bitcoin and he just disappeared days after. Lots of business will be affected, considering that most gambling accepting crypto website gathered here to get users, crypto related mixers too and many more crypto-related services. If ever that happens there's r/bitcoin and r/cryptocurrency, just check it, many popular crypto personalities use reddit or twitter platform to discuss instead here.

Yes, you read right, I think it's a mistake on OP's part of probably a misconception. Satoshi has been here from the beginning, he only left and has since but returned the thing is what will happen to members network of friends on the forum who may not border in sharing personal contacts e.g email if one day the forum suddenly goes offline how do we link up with each other and keep the discussion going.

The forum's basics may not be to make friends, but that's bound to happen cause no man's an island of knowledge, if you're opportuned to come through a post where you learnt a lot, you'll be forced to make the poster your friend so you could learn even better.

There are other alternatives to have some regular conversation among members but nothing similar to this bitcointalk community as i have spend quite a good time over here so can't think of even not having it around at some point.This is by far the biggest btc related discussion community having full load of resources to enhance your knowledge and skills and it won't go offline so easily. To what i remember there was one such hack on forum in 2013 about which i read on article at some point and then hackers deployed malware after FBI seized btc from silk road case. "If you used the same password on Bitcointalk.org as on other sites, you may want to change your passwords," Theymos wrote, adding that Bitcointalk.org will be offline for a while, but several people have backups of the forum. Source : Forum goes down Moreover after that @theymos has initiated bug programmes as if you could find any relevant bug on forum you will be rewarded for the same and we have talks about new forum software and many other things.But the main part is if this could happen to bitcointalk then why can't reddit or other sites have the same faith? So simply enjoy your journey on this majestic forum without any future worries because at the end there are many possibilities and some solutions.

Don't ever think like this because that's impossible to happen. We have an admin(s) responsible for this and maybe admins making sure that the forum will long last. In fact, the server of this forum was hosted by https://www.simplemachines.org/ which is an open-source web application that provides Internet forum and message board services based on their website. So now, how this forum become offline if it seems we are in the decentralized website?

Bitcointalk is centralized, so it's possible this forum going offline.

Based on Who is the site domain name is still up until 2029 and I guess they also pay for hosting that long but if for some reason Bitcointalk becomes offline the only communication we'll have are other social media that we've communicated like Facebook, Telegram, and other venus but if that happens one of us or a group of us will continue to flame by creating another forum and since we have a Wayback machine or archive sites, we can verify the identity based on the addresses that each one of us signed and posted here.

I'd think this is the alternative chatroom if Bitcointalk goes offline Bitcointalk Party - Discord server but yeah not all users joined the Discord channel. Some users doesn't comfortable and had privacy concern to share his personal contacts, they're pretty much only want to interact using this forum... outside this forum they're communicate with their close/real life friends. You can always continues discussion about Bitcoin in any forum/chat, but don't expect with the same person.

Bitcointalk is a biggest home for Bitcoin members but it is not the only one for them. Reddit, Stackoverflow, Bitcoin.org, etc. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/tagged/bitcoinhttps://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/https://bitcoin.org/en/communityI don't understand your questions because Bitcoin network does not rely on Bitcointalk forum. You might have less support from community if the forum shuts down but your Bitcoin node will still be able to keep running on Bitcoin network. Reddit and Stockoverflow are other perfect places for you to ask and get support.

First thing to watch would be imho Bitcointalk's Twitter handle. Then I'm sure that most bitcoin and altcoin reddit areas will contain relevant info. And even some of the shitposters on twitter will give a hint. It's not that the relevant information will be missing. It's just that you'll have to filter correctly between information and (other platform's) advertising.

Telegram will be the very first and number one place to get in touch with one another, cause it is most times mandatory to join any campaigns telegram channel and official group, then, the managers channel and group all to stay updated about the campaign (this is mostly done in altcoin campaigns). Through this, the subscribers can use their forum nicknames as their telegram username, making it easy to recognize each other. Outside that, Twitter is another open place to get in touch again, then Reddit, and other crypto currency related forums around the web.
Looking at everything from the start point, this is the main and major Bitcoin forum, well known and recognized as a forum which Satoshi created giving it's full control to the hands of the current moderators. This is more like the birthplace of everything Bitcoin, so, it has to stand.

Op you misunderstood something, and i want to correct the impression, by putting you through about the sentence that portrayed that Satoshi left bitcointalk community or From the day one (1) bitcointalk is introduced, let me brief you and also inculcate this to you, Satoshi nakamoto were in bitcointalk during the establishment of the forum, and the forum was introduced in year 2009 and Satoshi left the forum in year 2010 (November) if am not mistaken, he made many posts directly to bitcoin discussion board and merely technical development boards, so carry on another research to confirm when Satoshi left the community.
