Because from what I can see, the slots aren't booked. They DJ in those slots because they have to cover for the lazy *******s. If they didn't the radio would be offline. Maybe thats what it will take for HxL management to see.First of all, this point isn't true whatsoever. If 90% it's them, why wasn't it them that had the most slots? You cannot say that DJs are lazy because most of them are not. You don't give credit to the international DJs that DJ hours on end at night to keep it online.
But you're an international DJ. You were hired to do international slots. By doing UK slots you're just letting the other DJ's who will not DJ be lazy. Maybe Jess would kick their arses into gear if international DJs didn't keep covering for them. Don't get me wrong I am not questioning your work ethic and I'm sure you're a good DJ and work hard. However it's just letting other DJs carry on being lazy.You cannot say that international DJs are not allowed to DJ UK slots. Most of the time I am forced to DJ UK slots because the UK Djs can't/won't go on air. If you don't let international DJs to DJ at peak times the radio would be offline alot more. Like look, I just got in from work and I am on air because no-one else can get on.. If I wouldn't be able to DJ this slot because of not being allowed the cover thing would go on for AGES!
I mean I don't see a problem if we do our international slots also? I don't see why international DJs are being targeted for doing UK peak slots. Thats definitely not one of the biggest problems.But you're an international DJ. You were hired to do international slots.

Well the UK DJ's should do them really... I'll say it again. International DJ's taking UK DJ's slots is making them lazy. Some will just think "oh, gangsteragent (or whoever else) always covers so I don't have to". I don't mean ban international DJ's from doing UK slots, maybe limit it to a certain amount?
I don't see a problem with Intl's doing UK peak times either really. It's not doing any harm and slots aren't exactly high in demand at the moment so I don't think there's a problem with that at all.
I can see where Robbie is coming from, international DJ's are labelled international for a reason however if the space is free because UK DJ's are too lazy to DJ then the international ones should step in.
I think it would be wrong to say HxL hasn't started to improve, I think HxL has improved quite significantly since the last feedback thread and this is reflected in the considerable increase in listeners. We're peaking on well over 100 whereas before we would struggle to reach 50.
Nevertheless we still have a number of things we can, should and will be doing in the coming month to ensure we continue improving and do not get complacent due to the slight increase in listener numbers.
I recently wrote the department report for HabboxLive as Roxy is away and I am covering her as Community AGM for the two week period. In that report I mentioned that covering DJs is an issue and I find that a lot of DJs are currently reluctant. As a result I understand new covering procedures have been put in place, recognising within the DJ report system that DJs cover a slot they had not booked. Furthermore we want to put more effort into breaking down barriers between DJs that I feel, unfortunately, do often affect willingness to take over from another DJ on air.
The problem is not so much International DJs doing UK peak time slots, I feel they are perfectly entitled to do so and indeed it is sometimes very important they do. The problem is DJs covering UK peak time slots and failing to do slots in their allotted international times as well. This is something we need to combat and look into, and if a DJ hired specifically for international times are failing to fulfil their mandate in that area, we will look into addressing that.
Benedictus qui venit in nomine Domini
Like i said to matt on MSN why are these threads even started they always end up in arguments and offer no help what so ever to the current DJs reading these threads. They also end up subjecting the intl DJs to abuse for the lack of Most UK DJs efforts which is highly unfair and highly inappropriate as were meant to be a community not ripping people apart at every chance you get !
- Fire the djs not willing to dj
- hire me as radio manager ;l
sorted.

you hardly see Internationals doing UK peak slots. I do a few yes, because we want a variety. If you look at the timetable more then 90% of the Peak slots are booked by UK DJs. I don't see a problem with imternationals doing some if they are unbooked.Well the UK DJ's should do them really... I'll say it again. International DJ's taking UK DJ's slots is making them lazy. Some will just think "oh, gangsteragent (or whoever else) always covers so I don't have to". I don't mean ban international DJ's from doing UK slots, maybe limit it to a certain amount?
We are called international because we are not from the UK. There is no such thing as international rules so we follow the UK ones. There is no rule against peak slots, nor I don't think there will be for a while because as Sam said there is not a high demand for peak slots at the moment.
