HIBEES BOUNCE RIP

Just noticed a post on Twitter from Bounce Admin Jamie Radger than Radge that the Bounce will close it’s doors on Cup Final day citing the growth in Facebook in the 1980’s

Sad day’s indeed

April Fools Day aside, I must admit to always forgetting that another popular Hibs fans forum exists! I did sign up for it once many years ago and briefly took a look but didn’t see anything that different to here and therefore just stuck with Hibs.net.
I’m sure many who use Hibees Bounce have the same thoughts but do many post regularly on both sites?

I do. Plenty room for both. And the Bounce has a much better interface.

Both great sites imo.... the bounce notifications etc are far more modern than here. A lot of the slavers on here (you know who you are :greengrin) probably wouldnt get away with the trolling they do on here. Both sites are full of great people, and we are all Hibernians :thumbsup:

And what a pleasure that is. Different feel to the bounce and hope there always will be. As has been said there's plenty room for both forums and all Hibbies at the end of the day.

My memory may be wrong but I thought Hibees Bounce was started after a bit of a fall out on here. I did read both for a while and I never really got into the Bounce and when I did look there it had much less activity on it. I couldnt tell you when I last even looked at it.

Facebook and Twitter are things I also never got into.

I jump between both probably spending more time on here though. Both great sites. Long may both continue. GGTTH

Did the hibs net admin not do a similar April fool a few years ago?

That's a mystery.

Usually only complete feckwits get Bounced.

I think Pretty Boy announced the site had gone as far as it could and was being wound up.

At least you got in, took one look at my name when I applied and told me to get stuffed. Even talked with an admin who wouldn't help. Ah well.....

I can understand that mind you. Yasmin Yam or Sparryheid Steve would probably get chased too. We live in name calling times.

Indeed. Especially back in their 80s heyday.
