I've noticed the problem with HabboxLive radio and it does need to be solved. I've been General Manager of ThisHabbo before coming to Habbox and the way they get listeners is by making sure the management are doing their jobs and pushing the DJ's, most people complain about alot of management changes on the site but that's the reason why, I'm not saying that HabboxLive management aren't doing their jobs I'm just saying they need to start pushing the team more. I admire the fact that Habbox isn't involved in the Fansite Drama which surrounds the likes of Thishabbo and other Fansites, but it only means by right Habbox should have more listeners than the other sites.

Another thing about Habbox is the quality of staff being hired has reduced greatly. It was only this time last year when DJ's actually found it hard to get into habbox and now it seems anyone is hired. Not saying this is the fault of the Radio Management as they can only hire people who apply, but there has to be standards!

Another thing I've noticed after being here is the co-operation and teamwork between DJ's in non existent. This is something Thishabbo is good with, When an RM asks a DJ's to help others it happens! The whole head DJ thing here isn't working either. It's something the Radio Management and General Management need to look at.

Habbox has the potential to be the best radio out there but things need to drastically change sooner rather than later. People need to work together and not only for their own shows!!

Just out of interest, what issues do you think there is with the head dj role?

When it comes to listeners, yeah we have our problems and actually they are improving now again as @Glitzen; said its hard to fill every slot all day, everyday because of the lack of AUS DJ's, exams and school work. The people who are posting about Jess really don't know the half of it, just because you can't see her hardly means she isn't there? I see her around HxL doing work like the rest of the team.

OK, Well I'm going to go by experience on HFFM and ThisHabbo with regards the Head DJ issue I think Habbox has. Head DJ's are meant to be a medium between Radio Management and DJ's. I don't want Habbox to change into other Fansites as that's what creates the unique approach which makes Habbox good.

Ok so Habbox got 3 Head DJ's, one for each timezone. How can you expect 3head DJ's to be able to cover the whole staff? It's just not going to happen. Once again I'm going to use ThisHabbo for example. they have 14 Head DJ's and HFFM was around the same. 14 does seem a little too many for habbox but there needs to be a balance between the radio DJ's and Head DJ's and they need to be covering each timezone. 3 Head DJ's just can't help cover the team and help make sure the radio is running smooth and DJ's are supporting eachother.

Another thing Habbox haven't really had is any International drive with the two Radio Managers being on during UK times. Going to once again use Thishabbo as an example. They have their various Radio Management in each timezone ensuring that the radio is on and that staff are being recruited to cater for that timezone. Two UK radio management DJ's can't cover the radio.

The way forward for habbox is to build up and improve in International times which will increase the UK listeners from early morning. Get more Head DJ's to help cover International times and maybe even an International RM. Just my opinion!

I'm not sure how HFFM and ThisHabbo manage their radio but it seems that their Head DJ's have a combined job role of what a HabboxLive Senior and Head DJ would do. At the moment, at HabboxLive, the Head DJ's deal with all issues which have been brought to their attention by the Senior DJ's. If anything more Seniors need to be introduced to flag issues with the radio etc to the Head of each group.

I'm getting mixed up on the Role of Head DJ's and senior DJ's , sorry not used to the both on any fansite but if it's the Senior DJ's dealing with the Radio issues then yeah more seniors are needed to cover the DJ team and ensure that the radio will be online as much as possible, other fansites just have Head DJ's which do both senior and Head DJ roles.

That's where we have a problem Apart from about 1 or 2 DJ's, there aren't many suitable candidates.

If you don't have them on your team, bring them in , find suitable ones. I hate the idea of bringing some people into a site at a Higher position than others but if it's going to improve the productivity of the DJ's and increase the listeners it's an option and in the end might work out better for Habbox.

But how would you know If they were good? You wouldn't know unless you have worked with them before or see the work they have done. It's a risk bringing staff straight into higher positions without them being in that department in the first place.

I agree Matt, Other sites have always taken the risk, if you look around other sites you can see staff who do well, who are dedicated and maybe not getting a chance , Risks are apart of the process of increasing the Radio listeners and moral of DJ's. You might get someone who doesn't suit the role but you might get some excellent ones. You'll never know how someone performs until they are put to the test and given the chance. I could name a few people outside this site just from looking at their productivity on other sites that would be good at helping Habbox improve! Just need to look and I could name a DJ or two within the site that would be good as well!
