Protocols not being followed

[Richie]

I'll be honest with you, if James did accurate values he would have been Assistant Manager in a flash. However, week after week I was denying about 3/4 of his values and sorry I shouldn't ask for him to be promoted if his accuracy is bad it's just not ethical really. I see where you're coming from but he shouldn't have been promoted (yeah in the future he could have been, not disputing that) if his accuracy improved that is. With Will it was quick and maybe wasn't the best option but I did need someone then and to some, like you, James, Lee etc. it looked like I was promoting my friends.

However, it really wasn't the case as I had asked for someone else to be the Assistant well before Will was in the picture - I wanted someone new (hence Luke didn't get it) but James wasn't fit at the time).

I understand why Jade promoted Jazz, yeah it was quick but really did anyone moan when people such as Nicola could come back as high as a Super Moderator whereas people like Catzsy (who is an absolutely fantastic moderator) had to work at it and was a normal moderator for ages. If you need someone it's either promote someone who can do the job or leave, it's happened before it could have happened again then. Think how Jade feels, she got ditched by Gina, Gina is now a traitor at HFFM and Jade needed someone reliable!

Without sounding childish, I don't blame her. I can't imagine the atmosphere being any worse over there as it's merely impossible. If you could see the staff forums you'd know what I mean. It's just a giant ***** fest. You could argue this is causing drama but I'm just saying it straight out, I wouldn't have argued about maggots getting promoted wrongly, if the rule wasn't in place. My only problem was Jade going around the rule when it was put into action for good reason, what's the point in having rules if we don't follow them or try to bypass them? . Anyway, what's done is done, lets hope she puts in the full whack.

Frankly whoever is best suited to a position should have it. The one time I took up work at Hx I went from trialist to manager in like 2 weeks and it wasn't because I was especially loved by the top guns (Jin for some reason despises me and has apparently blocked me from getting other positions that I'd have been suited for) but because I was willing and able to fill the role. There's no sense in making promotions happen solely on a queue system of whoever's "next in line" having it, because to put it bluntly some people are better at leading and some are fantastically well suited for grunt work and following orders, and I'm sure no-one wants to see ineffective management simply for the sake of some false equality idea

tbh if I was Gina I would have went to Hffm, they have a better radio now, I would tune into them more than Habboxlive,

and Jas all the changes are for the best??? Not what I heard, I remember hearing Martin having to cover for djs mission slots, also I've heard a few swear words on songs being plays and also the quality of some of the djs at Habbox a bit poor with alot of static and background noise making it hard to hear. Explain how all these changes are for the best???

Which I don't have a problem with if seniors aren't more capable for the job. The whole thread is about Mike introducing a rule that guest djs can't be promoted, so to promote maggots they had to go around the rule by making her regular dj then promoting her. If Jade didn't agree with the rule and wanted to promote maggots she should have told Mike that she didn't agree with rule rather than pussyfooting around it.

[FlyingJesus]

It's a daft rule anyway since "guest DJ" is basically just a normal DJ without reports and requirements as far as I can tell, and if people can be brought in from not having any role at all to being a senior staff member or even manager as has happened before then it makes no sense for there to be this rule. In essence it means that someone like me with no DJ experience at all could in theory become Head DJ overnight but someone who has a passion for it and has been working the role casually for a long time can't

This is why I should be staff AGM cough cough

All the seniors DJs are there to pick up these and make us aware to therefore make the DJs aware if they have any show issues. Same if DJs miss slots or what not. All we can do about djs with static and background noise is give them feedback and help to improve them and continuously remind them of ways to not have these sorts of issues when on air. And that is what I am constantly doing with DJs that need that help.

at least make a rule or something so that it can be resolved like 3 warnings for the noise, it's what puts me ad others I would say off the most, great songs and music playing then Bam headphones deafin ye with the screaming of someone I. Ye background.

I'll speak to Mike about that.. but the other thing I said about was thrown out the window as it was seen as harsh.. But a 3 warning system for show issues relating to bad quality shows could up the quality possibly? And isn't really seen as harsh then? There is an amazing thread Richie made about buffer settings and that has helped a lot of DJs with there funny microphones and obviously we are on hand when they are actually DJing incase they need our help.

Jazz was a good choice, Kyle is risky. Just calling it as it is, sorry if it offends anyone. I would have probably promoted that Elliot chap.

Lots of current senior DJs aren't ready for Head. Heck, I can see one person who's not even ready for senior DJ.

I will back Jade up on this decision, as it needs a capable pair of hands. Of course she became radio DJ to become Head later, doesn't take a genius to figure that one out. As for her being a guest DJ, she should have been never been one. I don't know why she was allowed to enter such a position.

Also, I agree with Richie on being consistent on regulations. Why the hell was Martin stuck in as a guest, AFTER the position was discontinued. Sure, quietly stick him in, but people will realize. Also, why stick a Guest DJ in who doesn't even speak. I love Martin, he's a lovely chap, but I fully disagree with this decision. It was silly and made no sense, might as well get an auto DJ.

[Jazz]

As far as I believe, Jazz is the one that was previously a Head DJ (maybe Asst Manager too) right? If she was better than any of the other two available for the position then she could have changed the department while she had the chance to before stepping down and returning a month or two late

Sometimes it helps if you have some fresh faces with new ideas on board rather than recycling previous head staff. But oh well, what done is done!

i didnt have the chance too before, thats the point. whilst i was haead dj i was under a manager who wouldnt listen to my ideas and when i tried putting them into play i was frowned apon.

hasn't she been khead dj like 3 times and resigned?
I'll give it 2 months, max.

I'll agree with calvin on the new faces thing

1st time resig: exams (was there a year before resigning)
2nd time resig: health problems (was there 6 months before resigning)

i havent partically been resigning constanty, and im better now and i dont have exams so
i will be here alot longer then 2 months.
