Topic: What happens to your network if bitcointalk go offline - page 2. (Read 217 times)
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.
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 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
A lot of people might hop across to stack overflow or reddit.
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.

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.

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.

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.
