HabboxLive - Couple of ideas

[Foregetfuhl]

Generally some great ideas there, if these were place with HxL I'm sure it will attract more listeners.

As for the casino itself I am not too sure on it as I think it's more based on the quality of the shows that listeners will be more interested it (Not saying rooms shouldn't be made just that bringing entertainment music wise is one of the DJs key aims).

Yeah I understand, I think Smurf didn't think of the ideas just set for HxL I think it was more set out to help Habbox as a whole..

I get where you are coming from

Also like the idea of filling up the empty slots with music - as long as it wasn't be on a really small playlist I think it would be fine.
But we shouldn't need that idea if we get more DJs like @JerseyShore; said!!

I think the DJs need to advertise more in their shows about the jobs, only a certain amount do, and this should be done on the forum as well, but the more listeners we get hopefully the more DJs we will gain too. TBH the peak time slots are slowly improving and that but its the midnight - 10am slots that are the problem, and then sometimes during the day till like say 5pm? But they will improve if we can get the djs to become more dedicated and what not. I'm sure we can focus more on the djs realising they will gain points etc. from doing slots and that. there is that reward system in place and I love that I am doing slots for a reason other than to entertain the listeners.

Aw thanks for the kind words . I was going to do a news show when at news last time, but left and never happened. Then I was getting together perm shows from people, I had a whole lineup, then a few quit even before I had the opportunity to speak to them and whatnot. I didn't have a lot of control back then.

It's also basically new unique ideas. I was planning a call-in game-show type of thing and an hour of laughs on a Friday, as well as a monthly gossip show like E! News or ET on all things gossip in Habbox and Habbo. Sadly I left and none of these new ideas materialized. My aim was for more materialistic stuff, as well as entertainment. So we would have had regular scheduled giveaways maybe once a week- also probably in the form of a perm show etc.

I don't mind developing some of these ideas further is general management want, so that they can then make it a reality, as well as doing that news show. Got nothing better to do atm .

See that was something I wrote down for like the monthly events was like call in events, obviously it would have to be approved, like a Mr & Mrs kind of style show or a couples quiz on valentines.. and just bringing on people from other departments to do things such as rare values, news etc. There are hundreds of ideas its just getting them to become reality.

That's the problem, nothing ever got put through recently. It took ages for me to actually argue and then put through HxStarz, then I was disappointed to see how it was planned. I'd blame myself, I should have given them a more concrete plan and set of criteria before I left!

Anything that makes the DJs more dedicated would be grand - going back to your idea with the automatic DJ for slots that aren't booked I have literally just realized that lets say (hopefully now that we are getting ideas it shouldn't happen) for example let's say there was around 6 slots unbooked all in the same row - I wouldn't want to be listening to a automatic DJ because personally a DJ should be on and I feel like if it's automatic it wouldn't be much of a radio (More like a itune playlist you never made) because it's the DJ who makes you feel connected.

I think if they connected more (as you stated more advertising and perm shows) it would deffo be a turn for the better!

Yeah I agree 100%: This is basically all my ideas, and perm show ideas in a nutshell hereee:


• Guide on all different ideas of events that could be done whilst on air
• Weekly Shows – See List
• Monthly events – See List
• Monthly small scale giveaways
• Party in a public room instead of HxHD (be careful for people not to spam)
• Dead slots? – Fill with pre-recorded shows or just non-stop music, and if a DJ wants to go on and book they can still do so.
• Bring together events and the news department with HxL – panel features for events, on air news feed once a week in a news show – See Weekly Shows
• Staff bonding once a month – skype calls, habbo fun times, draw something, online popcap games etc.etc.
• Throughout the hour competitions to keep listeners tuned in the whole time rather than the ten minutes a normal competition lasts. Like a guessing game.
• Radio to practice on and improve DJ skills (pretty sure Logan requested this)

And Perm Show Ideas:


Habbox Presents... This Weeks Official Top 20! - Sunday 7-9pm
Every week radio channels such as Radio 1 and Capital present the official Top 40 in the UK, well now is time for Habbox to present these to the listeners. This show would be either a single DJ or double DJ show in which the DJ(s) will work their way down the chart from 20 to 1. To make it more interesting you could have competitions involving the chart, such as who was at what number, and if they weren’t tuned it they can always check the Radio 1 website etc. The only issue is sometimes artists are featured more than once in these charts… But hopefully seeing as its official it shouldn’t matter.

HabboxLive Top 10 – A one hour show somewhere
Although the Top 20 could pretty much cover this, there aren’t certain songs that the listeners love and always want to hear even though they aren’t in the charts. This is where this show comes in! A whole hour dedicated to the most played and most listened to songs on the HabboxLive radio!

HabboxLive Rocks! –CAN BE DONE WITH ALL GENRES OF MUSIC
From your Avenged Sevenfold to your Linkin’ Park, there are some amazing rock bands out there that maybe a lot of the DJs just don’t have the time to play! For this one hour show you can flip that hair back and forth and raise those signs of the horns! HabboxLive does ROCK!
(I presume that DJ Alistair would want to do this)

The Hotel Is Alive With The Sound Of Habbox… – A one hour show somewhere
All the great films have fantastic music to match! From your Twilight to your Hairspray there are a million and one songs all sung every day! So say Hakuna Matata and tune in for this one hour special dedicated to your favourite movie soundtracks!

It Must Be Love… – A one hour show somewhere
A whole hour dedicated to those great love songs. Presented by two DJs preferably for the lovey dovey atmosphere. From Donny Osmond to Justin Bieber, all great artists sing about finding love. And these are the songs that will melt your heart and make you want to cuddle up with your closest Habbo friend.

NewsBeat - A one hour show somewhere
A one hour show consisting not only of the greatest tunes but also of the week’s hottest news from the Habbox News Department.

HabboxLive Club Anthems – A one hour show somewhere
From Ibiza to Marbella, club anthems are getting everyone wearing their dancing shoes! For this one hour show the DJ will be presenting you with the top club and dance tunes to get your Habbo feet on the move!

Bringing Back The Oldies – A one hour show somewhere - SMURF
Anyone remember the 70s, even the 80s? Probably not… But our parents say it was filled with amazing music! This hour is dedicated to all those songs that we call the oldies. Sit back and enjoy the music from the 70s all the way through to the late 90s! From Queen to the Spice Girls this show will have you singing all the way back down memory lane!

HabboxLive: Remix Show (need a witty name) – A one hour show somewhere
An hour of your favourite tunes but made even better with back to back remixed songs.

I’ve also spoken to Gina about doing the weekly Quiz again, and hopefully this is something that can be brought back as when I have spoken to people in HxHD this is something they said they do enjoy.

All of these ideas are excellent and what HabboxLive needs is to reconnect with the community. We need to find something that will attract listeners to the radio, making them want to revisit reguarly. I love the idea of bringing back perm shows, we need more things like a homerun show when people get in from school, Chart shows, themed shows etc. I think the radio just needs to have a bit of a shake up, new DJ's, perm shows etc.

In general, it just needs some stability if you ask me, it's had far too many management changes this year, and I think the next HabboxLive Manager needs to be someone in it long term.

These are some great ideas. Just saying, if i could come back to HxL as a guest DJ i'm willing to host the UK Top 20 on Sunday 2pm - 4pm maybe since i had experience hosting it for several weeks or months i don't remember. But the only problem is i can't do a double dj show because of my internet. So yeah.

Maybe you could speak to MattG? The only reason I put 7-9pm is because the the official chart finishes around.. 7ish and you could just go from them
