20 Years of The NLSC

NLSC 20th Anniversary!

Image

August marks the 20th Anniversary of the NLSC! As it happens, August 26th is also my 15th Anniversary as NLSC Webmaster/Administrator. On behalf of the entire team, I'd like to thank everyone for your continued support! Thanks of course also go out to the NLSC Team itself, for their help in maintaining the site and creating content.

We've had our ups and downs through the years, but we're still around, and we plan on sticking around for a while yet and doing some great things for the basketball gaming community. I'll be honest: our hosting issues earlier this year did actually put our future in jeopardy for a while there, but we've come through it and we're as strong as ever on our new server.

Once again, if you are able to help us out in paying the bills, you can find more info here. Otherwise, we hope you'll keep supporting us by simply continuing to visit the NLSC on a regular basis, taking part in the Forum, and enjoying the content produced by our team and our fantastic community!

Thank you again for your support these past twenty years. We're proud of the work we do, proud of our community, and excited about doing more fun things in the near future.

Pleasure to be a part of the community around here and I think 20 years is a testament to how well this site has being ran, I wasn't around when Tim ran the show but can honestly say that Andrew and the team have done an amazing job keeping things not only going but expanding and growing with the times.

Happy birthday NLSC!

NLSC started in '96?! I had no idea! Congrats.

Crazy to think i've been here for almost 15 years myself. It's the very first internet community i got involved in when i first started using the internet back in 2001-ish. That's so weird to think about, wow

It's very rare for a forum to stay this long and this strong! All the forums from my childhood in the early 2000s are long gone. ALL of them. This one didn't just stay intact, it remained strong and the community evolved every year. I love the NLSC, it's definitely our home!

Reading this thread reminded me of donating to the Patreon and GoFundMe. The day this website closes is the day I'll probably stop playing 2k. :lol:

This forum is amazing. The first of its kind supporting ball gamers. Specifically EA Sports NBA LIVE. Way before 2k forums or any of the others.

So glad the site did not die after EA abandoned us and 2K rescued us PC gamers. Will always be loyal to 2K for that move. And to you Andrew!
