You actually need a valid email address linked to your Bitcointalk account for security reasons tomorrow.
It's not a must and a valid email can become invalid or useless if that email provider service was bankrupted and closed their service.
There are advantages of Bitcoin users and Bitcointalk forum members, as with Bitcoin private keys and non custodial wallets, they can sign a Bitcoin message to show that they still own the private keys. It's one of evidence to prove account ownership but of course there are other evidences like PGP key if possible and also other proofs.
