    I've seen DJ's and host events at the same time in recent times.

    yeah so have I.

    If EO's are allowed to host and DJ at the same time then I personally think HxHD staff should be allowed to DJ at the same time too. It is up to the managers though

    Help Desk needs 100% attention, unless you're the manager.

    I don't think there needs to be stupid rules like that, just advise staff not to do both at the same time, simple. If you go around forcing people to not DJ if they're behind the desk then you will get resignations because who would want to stay at the Help Desk when the minimum is 5 hours, when HabboxLive is only 3?

    Unless it was changed after I left, I don't think the rules about DJing and hosting was scrapped. I think it just reached the point where manager didn't want to enforce a rule that wasn't a problem anymore.
    I used to DJ all the time when I was behind the desk. Heck, I wrote articles, did RV work and even made graphics behind there. It's easy enough to divide your attention between two departments and as long as they're managing to answer questions and stay active in the room, I don't see the problem with it really.

    I'm not too sure why Hannah disagrees with the rule when she can't even follow the rules herself. :rolleyes:

    Oh, and I wouldn't suggest completely dismissing the lowering of minimums, as I'm sure you have recently shown that you couldn't even make the time...

    Personally, if someone can host an event and DJ at the same time - how is it not possible for helpdesk staff to do the same? The radio sits on off for the majority of the day - you'd think you'd take any opportunity you could to have it on as much as possible.

    I remember at a point having to continuously get on to some DJs (who were also HxHD staff) behind the desk about not paying to anyone who needed help and not staying active behind the desk while DJing on air - it started to become an issue. But hey, that was a long time ago and if it isn't as much as an issue now they should be allowed to DJ while being an active + helpful HxHD staff member - if they are able to do both with no problems. If it starts to become a problem again then action can (well should) be taken from there.

    Honestly, I would agree to change the rule in any other circumstance. The fact is that it has obviously not changed, from what myself and a few others have witnessed. It's all fair and good to say that one time you were quite good at paying attention to both, but if this is not always the case.

    Then surely it could be dealt with as and when it occurs? If it's acceptable to stream, why not allow the ability to speak every few songs? It is possible to switch to the Habbo client while speaking so as long as attention is being paid I see no issue.

    I know a few people did try to deal with the situation, but were ignored

    From my own experience, if what I'd consider to be a good DJ and interacting enough, finding the right songs people want played, checking requests, doing competitions and advertising on-client, it is quite hard to focus on habbo even whilst not behind the desk. You still have all of this to do, even without speaking so much, you really aren't focusing enough on either.
