HxL

Find it funny how people are blaming it all on the Habbo downfall, not sure if anyones noticed this but work it out for yourself;
Habbo is making more and more money each year
Recently yes they have sort of zoned out of Habbo fansite's but then again why should they support them?
If anything its the DJ's, the managers fault if a dept starts failing... not much else to say really.

Find people who will devote to the dj'ing job also, not a staff memeber who has a billion other jobs at habbox and just wants another forum to see/usertitle to have. ITS SILLY!!!

habbox dont give away nearly as much furni as they did on their radio shows now, hell i havn't heard a DJ hold a giveaway in the last 6 times ive tuned in (and yes they were for the full shows)

no wonder no one listening

A staff member who has many other jobs could do a DJ job too, it's not fair to alienate them and if they can spread themselves that thing then they deserve a medal for committment not for greed :). I wouldn't wish to dj but kudos to those who do and do well.

Disappeared for a couple of days due to family problems and see this thread. Knew it was coming sooner or later. Yeh, the radio is ****. Very very very **** actually. This is in terms of stats and DJs. We had more on air hours last month compared to previous ones I think, but it's crashed fast in the past week.

I agree, the fact is DJs are half-heartily devoting their time to HxL. Building a base is step numero uno. I have asked around, many older people are uninterested or moved on etc. It by no means should be base camp for new DJs, but we should keep a team.

There are various ways. That includes more on-client stuff, perm shows etc. I am sorting out perm shows, I hope to get a perm show on everyday for an hour or two, including charts, news, win a room etc. That will be announced.

I'll reply to more later.

That's wrong. Radio is interlinked with many things. A lot of the reasons why we get listeners in the 100s before was departments helping each-other. Rare values used to be the crown jewel. People would go on and leave the radio on at the same time.

We did have a few before the mute. But logistically, we can do little in terms of solid promotion on-client with the mute. This has caused a slight dwindle to an already dwindled listener population.

But common Grig you know yourself declining DJ's who can DJ is pretty silly?
Bit off the topic so lets get back ontopic.
Yes correct, in some aspects, what so Habbox thinks they can base everything on one thing? What a silly move! How can you expect to survive through things depending on one thing.

We don't and that's why we are adapting! We are going to shift around a bit and do at least one or two big things on radio per month. It'll be a lot of work, but it's part of a bigger adaptation etc. Many other radios have closed, we are still open and trying to shift into a new vision.

I don't decline great DJs, I welcome them and love to have as many as possible. Every little hand helps :).

edit: Also I agree, staff from Head level down need major sorting out.

Like Sam said, we shouldn't exclude Habbox staff just because they might be too busy as it's not fair.
We really need people who are enthusiastic and excited 'cause they're more likely to do well. Saying that though, there's only about a one in a gazillion chance of finding one of those people :L

Surely people who already work for habbox are the best people to choose as DJs? They've clearly shown that they are committed to the site and, lets be honest, the radio needs all the help that it can get :p

Giveaways are a boring and unimaginative way of gaining listeners but they have worked well in the past. During the olympics the giveaways were locked rooms and only got about 5-10 people in. I realise that the mute played a large part in this but if people can't come in and see what's on offer then it's unlikely that they're going to tune in and wait for a password if there's a chance that the room is just full of pixel furni. Could've been done better!

It isn't really within the remit of a radio DJ to give away their hard earned furni so perhaps they could be allowed a little extra allowance on the forum prize end. @Inseriousity.;

also @RemelKiid; @Maggots; bring back the vault.

We're looking at some new ideas and events that we can push onto the radio. In terms of forum prizes there aren't any quotas anymore so we have been giving away more and more VIP / rep etc that ever before.

The Vault should hopefully be returning for HxSS.
