The Tianya Forum, which carries the memories of the post-70s and 80s, is no longer accessible, its fate is uncertain, and it cannot be opened. The page can no longer be opened and has been for a month.
On April 1st, April Fool's Day, Tianya Forum suddenly issued an announcement saying: Tianya Forum is undergoing technology upgrades and data reconstruction, and the platform will not be accessible during this period. I originally thought that the Tianya Forum was only for "technical upgrades", but I didn't expect that after the announcement, it has been unable to open for a month. It seems that the Tianya Forum has been completely closed, and it has disappeared silently.
A few days ago, it was rumored that BlockCity, which Wang Xing participated in investing in, intends to acquire Tianya Community, and jointly build a Metaverse social platform based on DAO (Decentralized Autonomous Organization). I don’t know how the future fate of Tianya Forum and BlockCity can be negotiated. But it's been quiet for a few days.
Tianya Community once considered selling, and lost 31.6133 million yuan and 44.6582 million yuan in 2013 and 2014, respectively. In addition, the weight of Tianya Forum in Baidu is very high, and the weight once reached 9. In recent years, Tianya Forum has also actively increased the traffic and popularity of the website by selling secondary directories, renting out multi-level directories for search dominance and SEO optimization. In addition, it is rumored that the Tianya community was forced to enforce 200,000, and the Tianya community stopped posting for a month in November 2022.
Moreover, Tianya Forum is an old and well-known BBS community. Its weight in Baidu is very high, and its weight once reached 9. However, in the past few years, they have been selling secondary directories crazily, renting out multi-level directories for search dominance, and SEO optimization.
Tianya Forum used to be one of the most influential communities in China. Its outage made many netizens born in the 70s and 80s feel very sorry. Tianya Forum was launched in 1999 and is one of the earliest communities in China. It used to be the first stop for many netizens to surf the Internet. In its heyday, the Tianya community had more than 100 million registered users and millions of daily visits.
The outage of the Tianya Forum makes people lament the passage of time and the rapid development of the Internet. Today, we can express our views and opinions at any time on Weibo, WeChat, Douyin and other new media platforms, but we can never regain the feelings and memories that Tianya Forum brought us back then.
