Habboxlive Feedback

Only 2 a week? People can't give more than 2 hours a week?

EDIT: I mean, obviously they can go OVER the minimum but you only expect them to give 2 hours per?!?!?

I think he means, the minimum is three but you need to pre-book two in advance.


Compared to other departments 3 slots a week is very poor, I think 3 works fine but only if people actually do them slots. In the hxhd it's 5 hours a week.

Why isn't dj rain fired yet lol

That was brought up in the past too. I did mention it to Mattg, not sure what the story is. I'm sure Rain is a lovely girl but as a head dj she doesn't meet her minimum, hasn't been posted away and Gina would be more than capable of taking on the position not to mention how active she is. So if she can't meet her minimum surely she should do the right thing and step down, give someone else the opportunity to show what they can do.

Habboxlive does a big event every 6 months maybe... Thishabbo or when clubhabbo did have a radio... They did at least 3 giveaways a week... Personally... I would stop the lottery use that money to purchase bulk furni for giveaways !!

I remember when Melisa and Jess use to get sulake staff to come and do shows with them... Once there was to many listeners not every1 could listen... I am sure if Matt @xxMATTGxx sent a email to sulake, one of there members (staff) would love and do a show...

Now a days I don't think the DJ's have the enthusiasm to do the job... Habboxlive normally have a 20-30 average listener rate... Other fansite which are giving away stuff in comps and events... Are getting popular...

But what happened to that competition on habbo.com with 20 credits each week :/

My suggestion is to...

Ask Jin and sierk to come and do a show on habboxlive of the history on habbox... In the show you could ask questions what people would like to see... And at the end giveaway a random gold bar....

Ask sulake staff to do shows... Every couple of months...

Get DJ's to be more enthusiastic of there shows... Make sure there on habbo etc... Maybe they can do events and on air comps...



Thanks

yes I can't believe it's only 3 a week, especially considering the amount of staff and the amount of empty slots!!!

I don't really want to talk about specific staff members in the public. Although I am aware of a certain staff member that was brought to my attention - That's all I say about that for now.

Sulake staff are no longer allowed to come on Habbo radios and staff visits are some what out of the question. This is due to them changing the fansite rules/polices/procedures/list and so on. In terms of Jin and Sierk - Could be possible one day but you have to understand they have pretty busy lives these days.

In terms of getting DJs on air, it's a tricky one. We can't force people to go on air but if they're not doing their minimums then they will receive warnings and eventually get dismissed. In terms of motivation to book slots we do have a department-wide DJ points scheme where you receive points for booking slots, hosting events etc which can then be redeemed at the end of the month for rewards such as forum vip / rep and credits.

I'm not sure what more we can do in terms of motivating DJs to get on the radio. Does anyone have any suggestions?



In terms of the non-unique listeners, the majority of the time our unique listeners and non-unique listeners are pretty much the same, never more than 2 or 3 listeners in difference.

The words in bold sound terrible!

It’s like appointing a moderator, who then doesn’t bother for whatever reason. You either want the position or you don’t. If they aren’t fulfilling the minimum requirement, don’t mess about, give them one opportunity to explain why, and if it’s reasonable okay fine, but if not make it a final warning.

As for being motivated, that comes when listeners begin regularly tuning in to the same dj’s! They need to be active to become more popular, for want of a better word.

I’m sure every dj attracts their own group of listeners, and the listeners will tune in again if they can clearly see that the dj has a pre booked slot.

Everyone loves music, and providing a variety of shows are pre booked, listeners will grow, but that won’t happen when slots are not being pre booked.

The current dj’s who are not meeting 2 hours a week need to go!

Good shows pre booked is the only way ahead.

Best post of the thread so far personally because it wraps the facts as concisely as possible. +rep

In absolutely full agreement with Alice here. Whilst I know that times are tough with the staffing issues and they don't come in infinite supply, dare I say it but some people may not want to join the department if they get the vision that staff are portrayed as lazy. I know I've been put off on a few fansites and even some departments at this time when members of the department don't seem to be doing that much when they should be to keep their department going. Get rid of the ones who aren't doing the requirement, what's the loss if they're not doing a considerable amount? If a Guest DJ is doing more than some of the DJs then there's something shocking going on and that needs to be addressed. Dismissing those who aren't doing that much could actually be better off for HabboxLive because at least the same faces are coming up again and again rather than Mr Billybob who turns up once a month.

I also agree with the 'every DJ attracts their own group of listeners' - a few years ago there were distinct groups followed by different DJs. I'd actually say that's a good thing - and it's because there were faces of the radio. That's exactly what you need, 'Chris Moyles - Breakfast Show' always rang a bell to me, even when the news came out recently that he was leaving, even though I've never listened to Radio 1 in my life. I hate relating Habbox to real life situations but I think the comparison I'm trying to make is that you need these faces that pop up regularly. You need a happy medium between the same faces coming up too much and just DJs who seem to DJ once in a blue moon. Perhaps I'm exaggerating a bit there but y'know

I also agree with the bottom part of the post too.

We can't force people to go on air

Probably ought to! They've signed up for the job, they ought to be doing it or get rid of them - there always seems to be a fairly decent number of applicants for DJ positions, and it may be a hassle to deal with such a carousel but as HxL manager that's what YOU've signed up to

It’s like appointing a moderator, who then doesn’t bother for whatever reason. You either want the position or you don’t.

Absolutely, I've never understood the idea that some departments can't "force" their people to work - you shouldn't have to!
