Habbox Live concerns

OK, I'm going to try and add a volume control under the Listeners on the stats. It may not work though, so I'll post again later with an update

Great

Well they should strive to be as professional as possible, i dont know bout you, but i dont wanna listen to some amateur crap when i could just go to listen what i wanted or to a better radio station

not saying hxl atm is amateur crap, just usin that as an example

True this. It's like saying, OKAY HXHD STAFF, YOU DON'T HAVE TO DO YOUR BEST! JUST TRY.

I think it's incredibly hard to get the balance between being professional and yet still sounding friendly. The age range of the majority of listeners is like 11-15, so you can't be too professional but obviously you can't sound like you don't even know what you're saying.

I think it's easy to say that DJs are unprofessional from a listener perspective, but when you're actually doing it it's a lot harder. I know it's important to sound professional and I always try my best to, I'm just saying it's a hard thing to do without sounding like some sort of robot .

and no doubt you're in the 'older' sector of the forum rather than the younger ones.

most younger kids don't really care if dj's talk over songs or whatever

Auto-DJ - a big no no. It was tried in the past and failed, someone would need to be on to kick it off - It would make the DJs lazy and just think 'oh well if nobody DJs it doesn't matter the auto dj will come on'. What was the big thing about stopping streaming? :S That's what that would be...pretty stupid and pointless.

Jingles were meant to be ready in March In May i contacted Jin asking and apparently there was no money to buy any.

If you're using Centova you can always have the AutoDJ for that and get the free script provided so DJs can login and kick the autoDJ on/off, just implement it into the panel so they can do it when they login to the panel.

like scott said, it would make the dj's lazy and logging onto habboxlive to just listen to music is boring, which is why streaming was stopped anyway

I think Auto DJ is an excellent feature. I remember last year in the summer, I sometimes had to DJ ALL NIGHT. Meaning 2am-6am, just because no one was willing to DJ. I know that this has always been a problem at HxL (finding DJs at times and covers) so I think Auto DJ is the way forward. You can't expect kids to keep the radio up 24/7 can you?

Auto DJ is also widely available too.

I agree that some DJ's could get lazy if an Auto DJ feature was introduced. Streaming always drops listeners anyway, so we could end up with even less listeners than we already have. The radio is already online nearly 24/7 anyway so I don't really think it's needed personally.

but why would you tune in to listen to songs and stuff when you can listen to the music you want by using itunes or spotify, the only time i tune into hxl is if theres something interesting going down in the habbo hallz `8=*+* or if there's some chatting ...

Yeah, i'm sure some people can't stand staying up that long so if no one will go on then they can just turn that on then the next DJ can turn it off. You could even schedule the Auto DJ to play at a certain time, like a certain playlist such as R&B/Dance.

Also, I think international DJs need to DJ more, it's always like this and something needs to be done. Just looking at the timetable, the only DJs who DJ during international times are Hazy and Matt and they book lots of slots each due to no other international DJs doing anything, i've not seen any other international DJs DJing really.

Most DJs who DJ at about 3am etc. stream anyway, so it's just the same.

As Calvin said, most international DJs DJ at national times lol, they need to be told to DJ at international times or not at all?
