    It has been a year since NT moved out of Yuku and into Huddler.

    After a year now on the new NikeTalk, after all the initial excitement, confusion, terror and even doubt, do you think that this was a good move?

    I would like to start by saying thank you to the NT and Huddler Staff for working hard to make this happen! Always appreciated!

    For me personally, the biggest thing that sticks out to me is the vastly improved stability now. NT can now handle the largest sporting events and sneaker releases without having pages magically disappear, and have NT shut down for a day.

    Discuss! List Pros/Cons, comments, etc.

    I love the new format. Uploading pics from my phone and nt mobile are two of the greatest additions, especially since I don't have a real comp or laptop.

    Nothing to complain about, I enjoy my nt experience to the fullest, 10+ years and counting.

    I don't like the quoting system :/ (NOT multi-quote, but how it was easier to delete unwanted quotes on yuku).

    Love it overall though.

    In terms of overall stability and features, yes. mobile-optimization, for sure. But activity seems to have dropped notably and Buy/Sell was sacrificed to the gods. So idk.

    The stability alone makes it worth the switch. All the other features are bonuses in my eyes. I never had to worry during the playoffs "I wonder if I'll be able to post by the 3rd quarter" it's been night and day.

    Any decline in the forums likely has nothing to do with the switch, but the continued complaint that "NT has gone down hill" which I've seen since I first started lurking. Not having the waiting period does mean people can create troll accounts immediately and that's obviously a problem, but it's not like NT on Yuku was a troll-free utopia. It still happened regardless.

    Stability :smokin

    When NT was down for a day before, I was lost :nerd:


    Ads don't matter to me, they help pay for NT and for the great causes we support, I'm down with that :nthat:

    Good job to the staff.

    Yea, I don't like to praise the staff for much but I tip my hats off to them for looking for better options for the forum to run smoother and more efficiently. There are still some problems but it's much better than it was before.

    It doesn't seem like a year but it def was the right move. I most appreciate NT mobile, and I do miss the wait period.
