Do you think "satoshi" will ever just randomly log in one day and post something?

His account is locked, so no. If he wants to claim his account, he'll have to contact me with a PGP signature.

So basically satoshi's account is inaccessible unless he contacted the forum administrator theymos while ironically satoshi is the Founder of the Bitcoin and the forum itself?

But TBH I think satoshi's inactivity for years that have passed seemed to answer one common question which is "Who is Satoshi?", and the answer is I think Satoshi and his account were just a front to whom really is the Founder. I don't say it's theymos nor whatsover. I guess it's just a codename or a username which most of us think of since we started in the forum (while satoshi is the smallest amount of Bitcoin like penny in dollars).

But it is also kinda scary as there are still a lot of bitcoins that aren't used and in hold by Satoshi. If ever he's mad at us he might dump it lol

Satoshi is just a name chosen by the person or group behind bitcoin, nothing more than that.
Whether other members of this group may still be active in this forum will we probably never know, nor is it so important actually.
Satoshi of course can follow this forum even if his profile is locked, and if he doesn't want to use his profile here because of his privacy and security, it's his decision that we should respect.
Finally, if Satoshi ever decided to use again his profile here, I'm sure he will be able to prove his identity to the administrators without any problem.
