worth it even if only a few people agree imo

Yeah but it'd also be interesting to see who else would be interested :)

Yh ok but opening another feedback for your department is extremely risky we know what people can be like here. but on your own head be it xoxoxox

Doesn't even have to be a Habbox event but if they're playing a game and getting over-competitive on air and making fun (nicely) of some of the listeners then they instantly become more enjoyable to listen to. Might sound obvious but if the DJ is having fun, the listeners will enjoy the show more.
For example @Yuxin; was DJing for two hours last night (11pm - 1am, maybe more but I had to go to bed) and we played Isolation at the same time. It meant she was enthusiastic and had something to talk about on air, plus she was making fun of me (:@) and Dolphins and a few others on air (playing @FlyingJesus; 's version of Barbara Ann, what a thing to behold) to interact with her audience a bit more.

The problem with brand new DJs (they're always super young) that no one has ever heard of is they have no friends to interact with on air. Or they have a select few friends and completely ignore everyone else tuned in. Being a DJ isn't just playing some songs and occasionally speaking by saying something along the lines of "And coming up next is ummmm welllllll I thought maybe.. no actually I'll put on some jessie j *gigantic pause where we listen to a fuzzy backing track for 90 seconds* wait sorry i don't have that song let's listen to some coldplay", it's about interacting with and catering to your listeners' interests.

Edit: oh sorry I forgot to say why I was half disagreeing with your point. Basically I agree that DJs do sometimes get stale but they can avoid that by interacting with their audience and having as much fun as THEY possibly can.

I actually feel Gina and a few others are the only ones that actually take those precious opportunities to connect with the listeners.
I'm not really saying that all slots done that are more than a hour long is the same. It definitely varies throughout the DJ. And as you have stated; the newer DJs are young, they don't know a lot of us listening... But should they not, as a community based position, be trying to interact with those listening. And with the time slot vs the amount of listeners; 11-1 GMT is 6-8pm EST so the listener focus becomes those who international.
Is it maybe that we are lacking the involvement on our international side? The amount of international DJs have dropped... Are we just not taking the effort anymore to reach other during the international hours of the Habbo(x)?
(Again, this isn't to attack anyone.. I'm just pointing out things I see..)

I think it'd be nice to have people subscribe to a weekly show, although I do think that it'd be way too fidgety to allow people subscribe to individual DJs as people will need to be re-notified when they switch slots or unbook it. Any DJ is welcome to advertise their show beforehand though.

I completely agree. Plus I think it would be nice to hear a DJ I've never heard before trying to interact with the community and get to know people better. I think the problem with REALLY young DJs is that I have nothing in common with them anymore and their interests are completely different to mine so I never find the content (if there actually is any content) in their shows interesting. Not to mention most young people (say 12 - 14) aren't interested in the type of music I like.

Yeah no that was just the beginnings of an idea. I wouldn't actually be interested in subscriptions for every single show but I didn't word my idea properly/hadn't thought it through yet the first time.

To go along with this as well. We do have the CNB which comes in handy for just about anything that is happening.
A suggestion to DJs is maybe to post the winners of competitions during the past hour, maybe a screen shot in the CNB post as well, to bring more of an incentive to those browsing the forum to check out the radio too

Yes plz. Screenshot only if there's something worth looking at though. Would be embarrassing to see a screenshot of a DJ sat alone in HxHD for an hour.

Agreed. Being from the 22+ age bracket on the forum, connecting with those who are 12-14 makes it difficult because we are intimidating to those in that age bracket.
It should be the fact that they're not into your music. As a DJ (a real one) they wouldn't say to a person who was at a wedding or something that their song choice is something they're not into, and then proceed to play a song cateered to the DJ... (If that makes any sense)

This is similar to an Events Roundup that Martin/Alex did when I was a senior EO and quite a few people liked to see who had won what and all that, so yes I'm all for this.

With Monthlies the DJs are expect to be at their slot that they've chosen for that. Make it more fancy, and publicize it more. It would bring more incentive to tune in when the reputation of quantity is there... But I like where this feedback is going... @IzzyUhh; I hope you are making notes... There are some good ideas arising from this.
