Why no Jingles?

[jake87385]

So I'd like to think of myself as a long term listener of Habbox and one of the things I have noticed is we don't seem to have any jingles or promotional FX that sort of thing, or the ones that have been played have been around for years.

Maybe I'm just being picky, but it seems strange that you don't hear sound bytes and little things like these below.

By all means let me know if I've missed something and I'm making a fool of myself

There actually are jingles that you can download from the panel for each of the departments, not sure how often they're used. I completely forgot about them til you said this

Tbh a lot of them need to be updated especially the Help Desk one it still says to search xxMattGxx haha. We used to have a DJ who used to make a lot of jingles for us but sadly he's not staff anymore .

I know how to make those sort of things, it used to be one of my jobs when I worked in community radio. I'd happily make some, not sure how to do it without treading on anybodies toes if you get what I mean

I hate jingles, there's literally no need for them at HxL. Anything that they might be saying should be said by the DJ anyway, so really they're just a waste of airtime - especially the one with about 5 minutes of stolen audio clips of celebs just saying their names which is not only stupid but very illegal

It would be very helpful if you could make some, I'm sure Radio Management would add them to the panel for other DJs to use. Probably best to speak to Radio Management about that though .

I'll have a play with the software and make a few sample jingles over the next week or two and give one of the guys above a buzz, I'll be honest, having some of the ones like the powerful voice saying habboxlive.com might be useful to add into other bits though

Yeah that's true. It'll be interesting to see what you can come up with !

The current DJ literally just played that one.

I'd rather listen to a jingle than listen to some of the DJs go "umm ok so.. what else... well i'm in the help desk right now and down here with me is umm *lists and mispronounces the names of the other three people AFK in the room* so search xxMATTGxx to come and join us." *music plays* "oh right yeah don't search xxmattgxx I mean search Shonly"

Which is what i've heard once before and honestly it was so painful. Much rather listen to a very illegal jingle that at least sounds like they know what they're talking about than that.
