can you name a decentralized method of communicating?

i can only think of IRC closest to being decentralized, and that is also utilized by many folks

IRC would be the closest thing, I agree. Many people use it to for general communication, support channels, news, trading, you name it!

irc.freenode.net is the popular server

searching the channel list for keywords like bitcoin altcoin etc is a good way to start

Look at the roots of the word.

A FORUM is just a place people go to talk and be heard. We exchange ideas and information. We are free to walk away at any time, and this forum doesn't record any personal data unless we want it to. It does not have a direct effect on our Bitcoin or our other assets.

It's a meeting place. Not a centralized control center.

So you are all fans of bitcoin. It is decentralized, and you probably acknowledge that this is one of its main strengths.

Why are you using this forum - a centralized solution - to communicate, and not something decentralized as well?

Just because it was already working when you've got into bitcoin? Any other reasons?
