some habboxlive complaints/issues/concerns

[lemons]

i just have a few things i need to get off my back! :D

Why do so many HabboxLive DJs have a lisp/issues speaking?

you know it's really hard to bop to some tunes when you have some boy with a lisp interrupting every 30 seconds - also very hard when they're announcing the competitions and you have no idea what they're saying! maybe they don't have a lisp and just have poor mic or are nervous but either way very annoying

The competition questions

why do all the DJs ask the same questions? i think within the past month or 2, the "how many yellow stickies are in hxhd" question has been used about 10 times and this is not acceptable! im also sick of questions like "who are the general managers of habbox, who are the head djs" because they're really LAME and dumb

however competition prizes are really good from all the djs :8

DJ interaction

i am sick of DJs who say NOTHING whilst on air, some more than others. djs are suppose to be fun and vibrant and speak a lot with their listeners, if you dont speak then your listeners gunna drop drop drop. i asked one particular dj why they never speak and his excuse was 'i only speak when i get requests' well sorry that is SO pathetic and this person needs to be fired because all of his shows are boring as ****. if your not getting many requests then do a game or competition or something fun jeez ok

DJs who don't know what to say

nothing is more annoying than a dj saying "ummmmmmmmmmmmm" "errrrrrrrr" "okay........okay" "right then.....*10 second pause" " i dont know what to say" - this is SO irritating and shows they have no passion for their role at habbox. jeez if u have nothing to say then just tell us what u had for dinner, what ur doing this saturday night or tell us ur fav colour!

Let DJs host events

usually when DJs host events they get really popular! for example in the last 2 or 3 times gina has hosted an event each time she did a small non-serious game of falling furni or name the singer etc, and they got full with both habbox and non-habbox people really quickly! therefore i think djs should be allowed to host events alongside their show (if they can handle the pressure/workload) and the events should be shown on timetable until events dept gets it act together

gina 4 manager!

thx this is all atm but i will be adding some more


i still think habboxlive is best dept on habbox and listeners always quite high these days

i hate ppl with lisps its shocking. they should get it fixed its really annoying for our ears.

[lemons]

oh yes also can you stop djs announcing comps like "if we hit 40 listeners i will giveaway a goldbar!" when there is like 20 listeners and 15 mins of show left thx

Kyle; let me know what u think yh blud

Yeah this really annoys me.

I would much rather it was "I'll do a competition at :45. The more listeners you get me, the bigger the prize" (but specify what the prizes will be). There are SO many times the DJ doesn't do the competition they've been promising because they set an unreachable target or we're just one listener short when we run out of time.

i think they do it on purpose so they don't need to give a prize which is ridiculous because i know despect gives them a lot of help with creds i think

[MKR&*42]

Yes can djs actually do better qs i dont give 2 craps about how many pods are in the help desk, like get people to come up with a funny jooke or something better jfc

nd some djs need to be shot for taking forever to read out requests

\apart from that hxl is act decent

[MKR&*42]

yes omfg and not having the songs jesus christttt just say "i dont have it but ill jus get it for you" it takes legit 5 mins and would actually keep said person tuned in

[lemons]

also another minor thing

stop djs from playing long ass jingles for example dj logan who has a jingle which he plays for about 2 mins and it doesnt advertise hxl at all

[Jurv]

ur probs trolling with some of ur points but i'll reply anyway!!!!!

people can't help it if they have a lisp and it shouldn't stop them from being in a department they want to be in. i don't really listen to hxl but i doubt you're not able to understand what they're saying?? if that was the case i don't think they would have been hired in the first place. i do agree with the competition questions though, some of them are a bit dull and boring. would be nice to see some more find the dj & guess the password comps (when there's no an event going on) and also you've got to remember that this is a voluntary role so you're not going to get perfection, small issues like not knowing what to say will get better over time

[myles]

regarding the lisp thing do u think their screen is covered in spit by the end of their show

- - - Updated - - -

and who is that dj who sounds blick?
uno the one who scammed ppl. his voice sounsd really weird and it makes em feel uncomfortable

[Mark]

These problems have been around for a while and will never be addressed. In terms of DJs, Habbox is desperate and will hire anyone who has Justin Bieber's latest album and knows how to get Sam Broadcaster illegally... I'd love to see some of these issues addressed but I just don't think they ever will be, excuse the pessimism it's just an ongoing problem since fansite radios died out.

obv they can't help it and am sure you must be able to understand them like cameron said haha :P also no dj should be speaking over songs every 30secs lmao tbh if they do you could always message their head dj saying dj ___ is speaking every 30secs and then they can mention it to them on skype or whatever (you have find the head dj on hxl.com staff list)
also theres not much you can do about them having lisps like i said above as they lit cant help it :P idk how long ago but years nad years nad years ago i had a lisp and had to go to speech therapy and everything lmao i was like 5 but even still, it would upset me though if i still had one (i dont do i? what)and hxl declined me because of it like they cant help it



The competition questions

why do all the DJs ask the same questions? i think within the past month or 2, the "how many yellow stickies are in hxhd" question has been used about 10 times and this is not acceptable! im also sick of questions like "who are the general managers of habbox, who are the head djs" because they're really LAME and dumb

however competition prizes are really good from all the djs :8
i made a thread recently in hxl staff forum giving them ideas for diff competitions like things to do etc and just telling them to do more competition in general haha so am hoping you're hearing more competitions at least :P some djs do stick to the simple things obv but there are def decent comps haha when theres an event on i usually do simple ones about the event room because i speak to the event organiser on skype and we make a deal haha like i do it with :odey:; and he'll give me some stuff towards and prize and i'll put in some too and we'll do a competition relating to him room and make people to stay there so his event gets more popular :P i do hear people doing guess the songs, guess the passwords etc like dj yoshi did a cool competition earlier haha



DJ interaction

i am sick of DJs who say NOTHING whilst on air, some more than others. djs are suppose to be fun and vibrant and speak a lot with their listeners, if you dont speak then your listeners gunna drop drop drop. i asked one particular dj why they never speak and his excuse was 'i only speak when i get requests' well sorry that is SO pathetic and this person needs to be fired because all of his shows are boring as ****. if your not getting many requests then do a game or competition or something fun jeez ok
stuff like this gets mentioned in feedback pms to djs so it should all be sorted soon def but i guess it depends on the djs and stuff lmao like some sound fab on air and all excited and know exactly what to say to keep the listeners locked in but others get scared and nervous like trialists a lot of the time dont know what theyre doing at first but they eventually get the jist of it and know what to say like i know when i was on trial i was a rubbish dj and had no clue what to do/what to say etc but you eventually get used to it and get better (awk if i havent) and sometimes they cant really help if they get no requests or shoutouts ;p i know some djs dont even ask some and when they dont they ignore it or w.e say they dont have the song but idk



DJs who don't know what to say

nothing is more annoying than a dj saying "ummmmmmmmmmmmm" "errrrrrrrr" "okay........okay" "right then.....*10 second pause" " i dont know what to say" - this is SO irritating and shows they have no passion for their role at habbox. jeez if u have nothing to say then just tell us what u had for dinner, what ur doing this saturday night or tell us ur fav colour!
i don't think you want djs to go into their life ;) we had one the other day who had his first slot and decided he was bored of playing songs so was like "its ok i'll speak for the next 30 mins.; so my name is liam, i was born in 1992 in a house... loooool not a house hahahah in a hospital!!!!" he was soon kicked off air as he decided to play a drake song soon after and speak after each line questioning each and every line of that song and to make it all the better each like said "*******" :P but i get your point haha there are loads of threads in the hxl forum giving them ideaso f what to say but its what i said above really like a lot of the newer djs arent used to it so dont know what to say whereas you have people like izzy, jammy, etc who have been there for a while therefore knowing what to say and what to do like the djs just need to get used to it really and you'll hear them improving on air as time goes by



Let DJs host events

usually when DJs host events they get really popular! for example in the last 2 or 3 times gina has hosted an event each time she did a small non-serious game of falling furni or name the singer etc, and they got full with both habbox and non-habbox people really quickly! therefore i think djs should be allowed to host events alongside their show (if they can handle the pressure/workload) and the events should be shown on timetable until events dept gets it act together
i couldn't agree more with this :P i think i asked you about it before like if you think hxl djs should host events too but yeh woulld be fab like there are maybe 2-6 events in a day like there arent many staff so not a lot can be done but there are over 50 habboxlive djs and im sure they would happily host events like i def would, djs like retro, lovesong, jamessparky idk who else but im sure they'd host events and would def put up the number of events :P events are also great ways to get listeners up like odey did an event and we had loads of people in the room and it also got listeners up from 20 to 40 because we both advertised eachothers things and helped eachother out lmao imo there needs to be a lot more interaction between hxl and hxe staff :P some djs dont even advertise the event and some event staff dont advertise hxl when really they should both be helping eachother out

sorry if some of these points dont make sense xo

[lemons]

ok maybe i took the lisp thing a bit too far

i know they can't help it but it's just a trend i've noticed :)

[Kyle]

Why do so many HabboxLive DJs have a lisp/issues speaking?

Lisps are sometimes adopted as part of a cultural identity, particularly by gay males. Some say it emerged in the 60s to identify eachother as homosexual and stuck, others say it's rooted in neuroscience and something individuals struggle to control. I say it's a (sometimes unconscious) adoption of a feminine speech pattern that predatory gay habboxlive djs use to signal to their gay listeners that they are up for a bit of underage gay chicken.

Source - studying for my PhD in sociolinguistics and human geography, specialising in hunting habits of homosexual habbos.

As for other speaking issues, well that's all part and parcel of being a socially awkward adolescent. But hey, what better way to break free of these habits than practising speaking out loud to imaginary people. So long as they're actually understandable I see no problem with it.



DJ interaction

This is one thing that distinguishes the good DJs from the great DJs and should be something that each DJ is properly trained in by their senior/head mentors. Knowing how to have banter and create a fun atmosphere for your listeners is an extremely valuable thing and if done properly can double, triple - or even quadruple - your current listener count.



DJs who don't know what to say

Huge problem. DJs should have a vague plan of how they want their show to go and what they're going to say. Linking competitions to what you are saying rather than how many stickers are in the help desk is a good place to start. song - song - song - chat - song - comp - song song song, etc. PLAN.



Let DJs host events
YUP! Don't put pressure on DJs to sign up and abide by strict events organiser rules, let them host shows when there's space on the timetable (which is a lot lately) and even more people will hear about habbox. Failing this, ensure that djs and events hosts have contact with eachother so that they can coordinate themselves and do some mutual advertisement. No point having a dj party room with 7 people and an event with 10 people. and less of this "get down to the helpdesk" nonsense too. DIVERT TO EVENTS, NOT THE HELPDESK.


oh yes also can you stop djs announcing comps like "if we hit 40 listeners i will giveaway a goldbar!" when there is like 20 listeners and 15 mins of show left thx
Is this really still happening? It's something I tried to bring up in my feedback thread last month and I had hoped that it would've been resolved. If you're going to give away furniture, give it away in increments relative to your listener count or don't offer it at all. This type of thing deters people from listening in future.

[lemons]

thx for ur replies Yuxin; and Kyle; i agree with everything u said!

[:odey:]

Just like to say that Gina is the only DJ to make an effort in my experience to ask events hosts if they'd like to host an event while they're djing etc if there's not already booked, or offered to do in room comps etc. Jamaelia did try the other day but no where near as efficient as Gina.

Me and Gina are working on the hxl/hxe bond, I like to think so anyway, and the attempts we've had so far have definitely been beneficial.

I'd like to start working with djs a lot more in bigger competitions etc to. Events staff could definitely help create much more interesting competitions for the duration of the show rather than just a quick question.

- - - Updated - - -
Yuxin; please let's get a weekly show / event together like deal or no Deal or something that would be so fun.

yeh def needs to be more communication between eos and hxl staff then like they could really help eachother out but they dont :P
as for the hxl/hxe bond would def be interesting haha like it can only really benefit the depts seeing as events = more people who arent from hx = more listeners
then there are about 10 hxe staff and 50 hxl djs so im sure theyd def host more events and would help get the timetable full

i'd love that competition thing too but its no good if the dj/host dont speak to eachother otherwise nothing can be sorted out lmao i doubt most the djs even go to the event tbeh

and would love to do the deal or no deal or whatever event with you! message me on skype about it or something but yeh would be fab :P

[OldLoveSong]

Head Djs are the only Djs actually required to host events, but i'd def love seeing more of the actual djs doing events from time to time, but honestly thats not really what they signed up for. If they wanted to host events theyd sign up to the events department :p but events such as win a room, and weekly radio events are still encouraged.

oh i just realised gina like answered all of these questions and i agree with basically everythin she jus said so yh

yeah but as head dj you're supposed to do events such as win a room, giveaways, gb comps, etc rather than stuff like falling furni or whatever (i think anyway) like they're different 'events' so would be good for us to be able to do actual events and like be able to book them such as hxe staff so theyre on the timetable and whatnot :P

[FlyingJesus]

Gina go to bed


I would much rather it was "I'll do a competition at :45. The more listeners you get me, the bigger the prize" (but specify what the prizes will be). There are SO many times the DJ doesn't do the competition they've been promising because they set an unreachable target or we're just one listener short when we run out of time.

Gina did that the other day *+*+*+* shining star of HxL obv


also another minor thing

stop djs from playing long ass jingles for example dj logan who has a jingle which he plays for about 2 mins and it doesnt advertise hxl at all

Ugh yes tbh all the jingles should be banned they're hideous and waste time and everyone knows they're tuned in to HxL because they bloody chose to. Also I'm pretty sure half of them are illegal especially the one that's like 10 minutes long and has a load of random celebs saying hi


These problems have been around for a while and will never be addressed. In terms of DJs, Habbox is desperate and will hire anyone who has Justin Bieber's latest album and knows how to get Sam Broadcaster illegally...

Are you suggesting that our DJs aren't all using legit software and paid-for album tracks :o :o :o :o

am close to bed so it counts ;l and yeh i agree with the jingle thing like some of them are really silly lmao im fine with the short ones that say "you're tuned into ___" (mainly because i have one and at the end says "lets go quackers" or something so i love it) or the ones that just advertise something for about 7secs but i cant stand the ones that are 1min long or something ridic its like they know they're tuned into habbox.com they dont need to be told idk how many times lmao and the songs and stuff are silly too because some djs play jingles where the songs are on for 1min eac so you get into the song and start bopping to it then youre like oh because a new song plays from that jingle ;l idg that celeb one either

[OldLoveSong]

yeah but as head dj you're supposed to do events such as win a room, giveaways, gb comps, etc rather than stuff like falling furni or whatever (i think anyway) like they're different 'events' so would be good for us to be able to do actual events and like be able to book them such as hxe staff so theyre on the timetable and whatnot :P
yeh :P i hosted telephrase today for hxl woo \o/ but yeah i think djs should be able to have the option to book events too, idk if it would be a requirement or not but tis def something id liek to see in the future :D

[Gina]

yeh :P i hosted telephrase today for hxl woo \o/ but yeah i think djs should be able to have the option to book events too, idk if it would be a requirement or not but tis def something id liek to see in the future :D
not all djs have furni and such so def shouldnt be a reqiurement and obv they applied to dj not host events and such too so wouldnt be fair but having the option to host would be good because i dont know about you (BUT IM FEELING TWENTY TWOOO) but i'd happily host events and stuff lmao

[Rachel]

I know they aren't obliged to host events but once they get a promotion to Head DJ, they will have to hosts events. Although you can't expect them to be a professional DJ, you have to remember most could be 13 year olds or any young age, so they are not use to talk on air. They do get the hang of it after a while and their Head DJ sends them a show analysis PM (Not sure if they still do) which tells them what to improve for their next show and what they have improved so far etc.. Some might not even bother reading the pm but some do work hard to improve. I think HabboxLive has improved for the best so far.

[Eric]

Me for head dj

I remember there are guides for dj interaction and show planning etc? Unless they're too lazy to read it

and just because they're 13 doesn't mean theyre going to be awful lmao like i said before it depends on how much experience theyve had a other fansites :P you could have an 18 yearold whos never djed before at a fansite, doesn't mean they're going to def be better than a 13year old just because of their age lol im 14 and im used to talking on air? :P
oh also not many djs are young lol im one of the youngest at hxl and if not, the youngest? most djs are actually quite old lol theres even a 27yrold one

Me for head dj

I remember there are guides for dj interaction and show planning etc? Unless they're too lazy to read it
when jade was manager she put all the threads in different sections in the hxl forum so you have to go through loads of diff forums to get to it haha the threads are still there but require a lot of effort to just find them now lmao a lot more than what it used to be

[despect]

I've read through some of thread so if I miss anything out or repeat anything then I apologise.

Anyway I'm gonna answer all of the comments I've seen.

Why do so many HabboxLive DJs have a lisp/issues speaking?- This is sometimes due to nerves, I know a lot of DJs do get very nervous on the radio which is something I will be working on with the DJs. I think personally a lot of the DJs are actually good at talking on the radio apart from maybe a few. This is something that I & all of them Head DJs will really work on. We have a trial server where I'd like for them to put certain members of their teams and this will really help the DJs in terms of talking on the radio as I think some DJs speak a bit too fast and just need that extra guidance. Again, something we'll really work on.

The competition questions - I know Gina made a thread with what sort of competitions that DJs should be doing and what actually gets the listeners involved which I will be bumping so ALL DJs can see. This is something that again will be worked on. I'll move Gina's thread to the guide section so we can add that into the welcome PM you get as a trialist/returned as staff.

DJ interaction - I know exactly what you mean.. I think this is somewhat improving recently but still needs some work. This is mentioned a lot in feedback PMs that Head DJs send to their DJs in the team. There is a guide made by Jade however, some of it is outdated and needs a lot more information. So, over the next few days I'm going to look through all of the guides and re-post them with a lot more detail so DJs can refer back to it if they really need to. You should see an improvement on that too :).

DJs who don't know what to say - Again this is always mentioned in feedback PMs to DJs however, some still don't know what to say. I'm going to be doing a guide about this too and posting it and making sure all DJs know what to say. I always like the chat topics where listeners send in their views and so on.

Let DJs host events - As far as i know DJs are allowed to host events if there are no events currently on during that time although I think events department prefer them to be radio based but that's something i'm not 100% on. Maybe :odey:; can explain that more or even Samanfa; because i'm not really sure what the rule for that is. I don't see a problem with it.

The comment about the "get 40 listeners for x amount of credits" this is only done to gain listeners, I think personally there should be more advertisement done beforehand so we start planning big competitions and build up the hype for it that way there will be more people tuning in during that time. I know we're going to start planning big events every weekend, every two weeks we will be doing fun weekends with lots of giveaways (rare & norm giveaways, credits too). Maybe even a throne giveaway too because I know a lot of listeners enjoy big competitions and this will really benefit the listener peaks too.

Lastly, the comment made about age.. why does age even matter? I hope these two people don't mind me using them as an example but Yuxin; & Calum0812; are both young and both one of the best Head DJs in my opinion we've ever had so age is irrelevant, we promote people who are showing their dedication not their age. That's just ridiculous.

Thanks for the feedback and we will really work on the points made, much appreciated :D!

ooh i didn't think we're allowed to? i think theres been threads in the past or something idk haha but even still i'd be good if we could get them onto the event timetable/do cnbs etc

The comment about the "get 40 listeners for x amount of credits" this is only done to gain listeners,

yes this is fine but not when there is 10/15 mins of the show left :)


thanks for your reply!

I personally think habboxlive DJs shouldn't be able to host events whenever they feel like if it's free, the reasons being:

Possible bad hosting skills (I can guarantee this if any old DJ was allowed to host!)
Not following the events handbook
Possible less staff for the events department itself

I think it should only be head DJs and radio management that can host events with perhaps larger prizes or things to promote HxL more. They should be a lot different to the regular old events (such as giveaways), too.

[Tyler]

i see the following as comps quite often

How many __ and in the HXHD
Come to the event room and say how many __ are in the room (i like this 1 tho as it populates the event :P)]
On the staff list who is the ____

force them to read the handbook then lmao like just c+p bits that are important and for the bad hosting skills im sure it wont hurt to give them a chance lol same way you trial eos you havent seen them host before so you dont know if theyre decent
like there can always be a room made for djs to host in and its not difficult from there to host events or do whatever but i do get your points but like even still with senior djs+ hosting it'd still help fill the hxe timetable?
for the possible less staff for events dept idk how thatd work ;p like surely it could help by making djs want to apply to be an eo
atm there aren't very few events a day and it'd help get numbers up and we do events like giveaways etc
as head djs we have to do events like win a rooms, giveaways etc like its lit a requirement
by doing events too they would promote hxl lol more events = more people who arent from hx = more listeners from advertising in the room
you dont get many listeners just sat in a party room/hxhd doing nothing whereas in events you get loads more people coming in lmao which is why itd be fab to get more events going on

handbooks are stupid and don't encourage creativity or fun in events -_-

yeh those are quite common haha as for the event room one i don't see toooo much of a problem with it because obv it gets the event room popular and i always see Cassiieee; running to the event room when i say it on air aha but there are more comps appearing like dj yoshi just did a guess the pass, yesterday there was an odd guess the song similarities one, guess the songs, idk you should see more nayway :D

I can guarantee that if any old DJ could host events, more than half would be an absolute shamble. If this was to go ahead, would this mean that this would get added to the job description?:
"Get to host events as you please when they're free, helping to gain less staff for the events team and not having any minimums for events to be hosted whatsoever!"

I disagree that it'd encourage DJs to join the department. They'd rather host events for habbox whenever rather than have a minimum and a big set of rules. This might not go for all the DJs, but I know that it would for a lot.

I see no problem seeing events being hosted by head DJs and their managers, but it should be completely different from regular events while following the same rules.

If any old DJ was allowed to host events, you may as well merge the two departments. Which is a big no, in my opinion.

It wasn't an idea. It was me saying that it's a ridiculous idea and they'd pretty much be the same department if that happened. It should not happen.

i really don't see the problem with dj's hosting events, head djs or not! any event is good even if it isn't following some stupid handbook! as long as they give a prize and host a good event whats the big deal

Because they're two separate departments for a reason. The events department hosts events for the hotel, the radio department has staff that DJs on a radio and hosts radio competitions/giveaways.

As I said, there's nothing wrong with head DJs and radio management to host events. But not the regular ones. And they should be a bit more special events, such as giveaways or more original events, perhaps with larger prizes -- otherwise what is the point in taking over the events department's job?

[Empired]

If there was an events area, would HabboxLive DJs be allowed to host in there? (Providing there were HxHD staff in there if rights were needed.) Maybe this could be something tested with Head DJs & Despect first?

I know zebbadi; has a small thing planned to put in the other half of the Help Desk. If that were to go ahead maybe we could have a few DJs using it as well as HxHD staff? Despect; Yuxin; Samanfa;

sorry hi wasnt ignoring your reply or anything :p yeh i see your point about having any old djs do events and whatnot ;p but even just having heads/seniors/management doing events would be an improvement as you'll have more events on the timetable etc :P but idk anyway i dont think it'd be that awful lol not all djs would host events anyway
i dont get how that 'helps gain less staff for the events team' either and tbeh its not like people are rushing trying their best to get into the events dept atm :P surely it would encourage people to join the event dept if they're enjoying it?:P obv there will be some who'll want to just host whenever and stuff but idk
if not i do like this idea though

I see no problem seeing events being hosted by head DJs and their managers, but it should be completely different from regular events while following the same rules.
like obv if regular djs can't host events its something at least
but there are over 50 hxl djs and im sure they're all capable of hosting events

oh i do love this idea thoug haha i think it was for the hollywood events time thingy roxy (i think) did it and had that section for people in hxhd hosting events and was great
obviously you cant do many events now though without people being able to drop their own furni like the most common one would be bingo because it didnt need wired and just dice games in general :P like you'll only really be able to do ones like nta, ft, etc because even with pod racing or something it would require a hxhd there at all times to move the pods and like odnt roll a 6 you need the dice to be moved and so on

I think Sammy's got 4-player tug of war type thing in mind so it wouldn't be too difficult for HxL DJs to host. I think it's going to need rights but I'd be more than happy to sit there and move furni for the DJs, and I'm sure some other HxHD staff wouldn't mind either :P

[Reality]

I agree with a lot being said in this post lemons; I do believe that even if someone does have a lisp or stutter it maybe "annoying" or "aggravating" however that's the person they're... I'm not saying you should accept it and move on, I'm just trying to say at the end of the day the world is full of people and many have this!

I know how annoying it is for you guys when you're tuned in hearing a DJ speak every 30 seconds on air, this is why Senior and Head DJs are there to help motivate and improve the quality of the DJ they have within their team. Even though we are hear to help them, maybe even the listeners could get in contact with the correct Head DJ, if they feel that what they are listening too is
of a poor standard, this doesn't mean to say you report everything as were already hear to do this. But, if you listen to a DJ regularly and make a few bullet points on them on what you feel they could improve then I'm sure the Head DJ will definitely take it in to consideration and report and feedback it to the DJ it's implied to.

Requests and shoutout's are a big issue with some DJs, many of the reasons is that the DJ isn't interested in the listeners S&R's and they want to play their own music; I would say at least 3/4 of all the DJs at HabboxLive do read their shoutout's and request's. This is a growing problem within HxL and does need to be addressed maybe Despect; could implement a system of cautions to stop the incline of declining listeners due to S&R's not being played.

I know that most of you are very bored and tired of the same old questions being given on the radio as competition questions!
Therefore, I am thinking of making a page that has quiz links, which DJs can go to for ideas and help them pick unique questions not related to Habbo(x), this being said some DJs wont be using this system and will carry on with their competitions related to Habbo(x) which I apologize for in the future.
Following this, I know DJs can make a uproar when they say they're going to do a competition and leave it until the last 15 minutes of their slot, this is also a major issue that many DJs have as they're not willing to depart with their furni and credits etc.
This is also a reason why many DJs say they want a certain amount of listeners which I do believe is wrong! The people tuned into the radio deserve something for being tuned in no matter how many people there are, this unfortunately wont change within HxL as most of you are aware HxL isn't the biggest among all the fansite radios to be tuned into (unless there is a major event).
In addition, I do know a lot of you are bored of the same prizes e.g. Credit's and Furni this is why myself and a few other DJs give away forum VIP like I did the other day zebbadi; still need to know which colour you would like for your two months VIP). I know it's not possible for every DJ to give away VIP as I know they don't have it themselves, this is why I may speak to Despect; and ask if he could speak to general management Samanfa; lawrawrrr; xxMATTGxx; Wispur; to see if they will be willing to help the HxL department in funding VIP for DJs to use as competitions (reasonable amounts must be considered).

I do know where a lot of you are coming from and I do hope that you take up some of the points I've made.
At the end of the day HabboxLive wont be able to change unless it has straight to the point feedback like this from the community who want to see it improve, changed or modified! Feedback like this is critical to any department and does help a lot when coming to make the correct decision for a department and the people within it.
Keep making threads with the important aspects of anything you want to see changed within departments as otherwise, they can't change if you don't tell them!

im pretty sure hxl has asked for fundings before anyway as said in the events thread :P i don't think we're low on funding at all though :dance: Despect;

[Reality]

I know; I don't this the manager is wanting to ask for the required prize as they're "not that type of person", this may seem vague, but I think it's true and I don't think managers, except greedy competitions with their VIP, ask for it because it's "immoral" to ask for something they should be doing for their department.
I do think that a few managers should be made more aware they're allowed to do this. Therefore, increasing the prize span for what can be given away Despect; Shonly; Yupt;

To be honest I think it's more a case of pride, DJs would feel guilty asking or something although most people would be happy to help.

And you can guess the greedy ones who join the department and 2 minutes later ask for gold bard when they haven't even booked yet ;)

I love the idea of giving prize alternatives, like tokens & things, and I suggested a while ago an "exchange" system, where if you're offered a prize of, say, 10c, you can ask for a week's VIP or 100 tokens instead for example!

I do think this would be a good idea, like what the competition department does in regards to their prizes!

[Inseriousity.]

I think he's talking about forum VIP which is even weirder. Managers can request VIP any time so long as they don't take the piss which generally managers can be trusted to make sensible choices with regards to prizes.

I like Charlie's idea of doing prizes in that way (first page I think). Seems to be a win-win for both parties, they still get to say '50 listeners for a gold bar' but people still get a competition and the host will be able to inform people of what that range can be (at their discretion and what they can afford). In fact it's such a good idea, I'd personally ban people using the '50 listeners for gb' thing and say if they are going to do that they need to use this system of doing it, see how much it drops then when they realise they need to put their money where their mouth is.

As for events, I believe when I was AGM, the rule was that they are able to host a small-scale event anytime if it was radio-related (small giveaways, win a room etc) but if they wanted to host something bigger, they should really book it in advance so that it doesn't clash and can be advertised. I agree with Lewis' point about the originality. As it's not the department's job to host events this means they have more flexibility to be more inventive when they do. I disagree with Lewis when he says you'd need to merge them. If a DJ is DJing and there isn't an event on, I'd rather there was somewhere for these people to go to. Then again, DJing is really laggy so I'm not sure how DJs would be able to host and DJ at the same time anyway.

The comment about the "get 40 listeners for x amount of credits" this is only done to gain listeners
It is done to gain listeners and nothing else. That's the problem. There is no plan to actually retain those listeners and lots of people tune out shortly after the comp or tune out close to the end of the hour when the DJ announces "soz guise no comp we were 2 listener off x". I've said it multiple times but I feel I should drill it in - Don't offer huge prizes you are't prepared to give if you don't reach your listener target. 200c for 50 listeners? that's 4c per listener, so if you reach 40, give a little less than 160 but not so little that it wasn't worth tuning in in the first place.

I personally think habboxlive DJs shouldn't be able to host events whenever they feel like if it's free, the reasons being:

Possible bad hosting skills (I can guarantee this if any old DJ was allowed to host!)
Not following the events handbook
Possible less staff for the events department itself


Of course there's going to be bad hosts but there's going to be some bloody good ones too. Same as the events department, really - you get some good hosts like odey and then you get hosts that don't even give prizes for their hour-long event! If they are willing to abide by event hosting guidelines then DJs should be allowed to represent habbox with events. It doesn't mean less staff for events dept as DJs will be allocated free spots, not take spots from EOs.

I can guarantee that if any old DJ could host events, more than half would be an absolute shamble. If this was to go ahead, would this mean that this would get added to the job description?:
"Get to host events as you please when they're free, helping to gain less staff for the events team and not having any minimums for events to be hosted whatsoever!"

If any old DJ was allowed to host events, you may as well merge the two departments. Which is a big no, in my opinion.
Slightly unfair to automatically assume that DJs hosting events would become "an absolute shamble", considering they would obviously need to be briefed on how to properly host an event in the first place. No need to merge depts, just think a little bit of collaboration can't possibly be a bad thing. If events staff want to join DJs on air with weekly shows and the like that that sort of thing should be encouraged too!

If there was an events area, would HabboxLive DJs be allowed to host in there? (Providing there were HxHD staff in there if rights were needed.) Maybe this could be something tested with Head DJs & Despect first?

I know @zebbadi (http://www.habboxforum.com/member.php?u=114868); has a small thing planned to put in the other half of the Help Desk.

Events staff have a room they can use for events if they don't have a room set up don't they? I'm sure there was one. But yeah, 1 room that many people can use is a good idea and it's something that happened in the 2012 summer helpdesk for hxss.

Yuxin; I never said 13 years old can't DJ and stuff. I did mention if they didn't have experience, no matter what age you are :P.

Although you can't expect them to be a professional DJ, you have to remember most could be 13 year olds or any young age, so they are not use to talk on air.
oh yeh i know you didn't say that but here you're saying about them being 13 or at any young age and so they arent used to talking on air?:P im 14 and im used to speaking on air lol i prob just misunderstood you so sorry if i just lmao am2dumb4thisforum ;) then again this is like first time properly posting in it and stuff
but yeh and for them becoming an event organiser what if they dont want to be lol like im happy hosting events and all that **** but i dont want be back at events :P i know i'll just end up resigning again after a week anyway lmao i get bored easily and would prefer just being allowed to host whenever if theres the slot's free

edit: oh yes what Kyle; said above [2]

[IzzyUhh]

With the whole thing about hosting events, I think it's a great thing to do with the community but it's something that needs to be done right so maybe a handbook will be good for it!

About age, idk what was going on with that part :P but It's been explained and it really does come down to experience and how well they can handle things as a person, not their age :)

I Never found it laggy usually to DJ & Go on habbo & the forum but recently my laptops been a pain so it's been quite laggy doing so :(

If I've left something out or said something incorrect someone please say! :P

I just said an age for example. You do know we can't make everyone happy. :P

[despect]

There was a lot of people saying that HabboxLive should be able to host events a few months ago and we got told that we were allowed to as long as we had permission from Samanfa; or a Events Management/Seniors. Personally, I'd love to be working more closely with the Events department because we are quite similar. I do have some Event ideas that I'd like to speak with Events and get something sorted very shortly with them, which is something quite big. I did start planning it with Lewis; before he resigned.

[Matthew]

Hate to revive a thread but a number of times I've tuned in, the DJ has been far too quiet

not trying to single you out or anything Simba11; but I can barely hear what you're saying! :(

Anyway to post on topic, I agree with the events thing, I seem to remember years ago the DJ's room always being completely full. If there's no event on then its surely better to have one than not at all

Hate to revive a thread but a number of times I've tuned in, the DJ has been far too quiet

not trying to single you out or anything @Simba11 (http://www.habboxforum.com/member.php?u=120489); but I can barely hear what you're saying! :(

I agree with this! (Particularly the first bit)

And sometimes they only talk like twice in the whole show.. I thought they had to speak every 10 minutes or so if they weren't streaming? And sometimes even when the DJs do speak I can't hear what they're saying over their background music.. :(

I think she just did a competition but she was so quiet I couldn't hear the question.. :P Anyway I think she's a trialist so I don't want to be too critical or anything!

Normally when a DJ uses a background music you hear mostly the voice instead of the song. The dj set on Voice FX the music higher then the mic volume, then you will barely hear the djs voice. That is probably the reason why you didn't hear her voice much. Her Head DJ is there to correct and show her step by step on how to fix this or fix it for her.

Oh I wasn't talking about anyone in particular. Just with some DJs they have a backing track that's quite loud and has lyrics, so I keep accidentally listening to the lyrics instead of what the DJ is saying and then I get confused :'(

idk if this is entirely related to the original post but can we have more slots dedicated to certain types of genre or some kind of theme or something. One of the reasons I basically avoid hxl is because they just play the same chart songs over and over and its so boring lol

also more slots with two djs for some banter would be great

did you hear me and dmd5; on air ;l but yeah it would be aha i do a weekly one with jazz where we're on air and we also get other guests on air like every friday @8 :P

and we do have weekly shows with certain genres in just not many like i know IzzyUhh; does a rock one and im sure people do older songs, i usually just play whatever and do requests
like when you request billy joel or w.e idk :P

as for the mic being too quiet, that was the djs first show and it usually gets sorted in a feedback pm or something of a sort like depending on the head dj whos supposed to be taking care of him :P
most djs tend to speak every 2-3 songs too like with some exceptions of course but generally speaking yeh you do often get the odd case
if they stream for 60%+ of the show then its classed as streamed (i believe Despect;)
hopefully that djs mic will be sorted soooon though for their next show so cheers people who mentioned it

oh however i must say like habboxlive has def improved show quality wise :P
im sure even listeners will agree lol 12am and
Current DJ: -DZ-
Listeners: 40


i had 49 at 12:30 last night tooo soo woo go team hxl +*+*+*+ :dance:

yeah but im sure the timetable only says one name with no specific type of show or whatever so i just think its the same old "plays any request" kind of show
i mean why do i want to listen to habboxlive to listen to music i know when i could just youtube/spotify/download it

yehh i never knew there was a fab thing for that :P took a lot of exploring haha they're decent shows though so worth tuning into wooo even my sister tuned into izzy's rock show on saturday and my sister never tunes into hxl so was a shocker
like not even for me ;l

[IzzyUhh]

Haha yeah its good to tune into weekly shows, like I do a rock themed show, and DJ retro does blast from the past every sunday, and DJ veni does a weekly show for dance music and I think theres another but ive forgotten, and you can always request a song also and not all DJs play just chart songs as it is said to DJs to try and play a variety of music so not many of one genre, and I made my weekly show because there was a few people who like rock music but it never really gets played randomly.

Woo I was shocked when you told me like ahhh

But yeah theres a few themed ones atm and a lot of DJs stick to a certain genre as a backround if that makes sense

Not at all! I actually would like to see a radio/events collab on a quiz show rehash. They're a dime a dozen on tv, pick one and run with it. Make a nice room and do it live. perfect.
