Niketalk for me was something I came across by accident with a former co-worker of mine on a summer stint back home in the Caribbean island of St. Lucia whilstwe were look around for vintage Penny's like the Air Ups etc...we came across the Jordan Brand Forum and from that day on, I was stuck! Been a spectatorfrom about 2002 and after a long time trying to register and post, finally got the account sorted in 2004! From since then I've been a constant member tilltoday I've found a "home" in the Nike Forum with helping to upate the NBA Feet thread. People always question my "addiction" to thesite and I can't explain it to them or even to myself....as Method Man says its just a place to gather and really meet up with people who understand theliking for sporting culture and fashion just as you and more than you...people who help you out with Fake/Legit and Price checks...its just the place to be!
NT got validated for me, when I almost became a victim of buying a fake (AJ XIX) and I came straight here to browse pics and info to realise that I was makinga mistake in even thinking about purchasing.
When I entered University NT became the past time which I got soooo hooked to, before classes, after class, before and after my part time job, and times ishould be sleeping or getting work done. It's warm its cozy, its relevant its cool!
Im actually surprised to see how far this site has come from my spectator days since 2002 to now, its grown leaps and bounds. To the inclusion of adverts, aproper structure and more forums added to reduce clutter, Admin to patrol the forums and reduce nonsensical squabbles and flame wars, to seeing some one likeJosh Childress posting here and Tinchy Stryder (UK Rap Artiste) post on here (whether they are actually who they say they are is debatable but for me justshows how much of an audiance we here at NT have got)
I must say I love this site, and hence my daily contributions as much as I can, when I can and I hope that it continues on to another 10 years...the lazerpattern then for the shirts and logos should be dope! lol
Anyway, I'm rambling ridiculously. Thank you Mods and Admin, founders and contributors. NT is definitely here to stay and I love being a member....I'llbe around for the next 10 yrs for sure....Congrats on making it this far and I hope we continue to grow!!!!
HAPPY 10TH NT!!!!!!!
