    I will admit that I don't listen to HabboxLive due to the lack of quality of DJs that I have heard and it is the same music played over and over again!

    People are just losing interest in Habbo Radios, they were big a long time ago as they were relatively new but so many years on it has just lost it's creativity.

    Misawa - You never did your job as "Radio Producer" :rolleyes: No point arguing with me as you know personally know it as we asked you to come up with new and original ideas and you didn't bother
    i agree about people loosing intrest in habbo radios if you look back they was way more popular its just the same there needs to be something creative thats not been done on a habbo radio because it gets quite boring.

    Adam actually did do quite a bit, especially in the beginning I feel. We all know that at the end you were away due to your band and stuff and Monday night will never be the same.

    Yes Hayley I do agree with you about the music that it's often the same old thing, which is or has recently been on the charts. That's the reason I rarely tune in and when I do it's more to people like Mikey, Danny, Jess etc. who play variety music which you've never heard or rarely here and your attracted to that like a magnet and say 'ooh haven't heard that' which makes you interested and stay. Thinking about it I think there was a thread about this before, but maybe you guys should bring it up again.

    And, yes Mikey you do learn, well not you (lol jk) but people do learn how to become better after a long period of time, I personally would not compare my quality of DJing when I first started to now!

    Yes people eventually get bored of Habbo radios and will usually listen to their own music or their local radios so it may not give you the amount of listeners of the days of Radio Habbo etc. But if you get some good Zen working for you, build up a good community since the time of Adam (Adzeh) and you might find people returning. As far as I was aware there were small groups of DJs before and everyone had a group, unlike one big community as it was before.

    It's also sometimes striking a balance, you say hey what do I want; professionalism vs. freshness + opportunity (because everyone has got to start somewhere) or community vs. size and creativity vs. monotony. Now some of them you could pick from but usually here as in life a balance needs to be struck, this balance may make the community better thus in turn having a 'domino' effect making the radio enter a better realm.

    I don't think it was due to my band that I went on sebbatical. I think it was something more problematic. I really can't remember, and it was only like a year ago. Things picked up with the band last September when we went to USA, but I had to drop out of it in the end as I just had zero time and wanted to pursue other things.

    But yeah, well said, Grig.

    To be honest, i never have liked online radio for many valid reasons. The "Dj's" all have a certain 'i'm better than you' feel to them. They only play a very mainstream type of music. There is never any varity, ever. Same with all online radio. There is never anything, unique about it. They never seem to actually take note of requests either, just because the title from a song has dark connotations does not always make it a dark song, but most "dj's" are to arrogant to give it a try. Maybe the people listening might like it, maybe not but there is only one way to find out.

    Also what I find tends to happen alot is that "dj's" will get a request having heard a different song by the same artist and it containing crude language that would not be appropriate. Based on this they disgard what the listener wants, thus forcing the listener to have to try again.

    Heh.

    If you look at my usual song list, it's ain't mainstream

    Most HxL DJs do play a variety of music, especially as it's one of the main things that's mentioned in reports.

    Sometimes, if we don't have requests, we ignore them, or try to get them, but when we play different songs by the same artist, it's to try and at least give you some form of requestability.

    The reason similar songs are played is because they are requested. Ofcourse we don't play the same song twice in our slots but if theres a song that everyone likes to hear it gets requested alot and like you said, we don't want to ignore listeners requests.
    I love it when you
    flex like that
