HxL DJ while HxHD

[-DZ-]

Hello everyone,
And to whom this may concern of course too,

I've been a DJ at the HabboxLive Department now for a bit.
I've recently joined the HabboxHelpDesk Department and am enjoying every bit of it.

I did learn that there is a rule in place barring 'active DJ'ing' while working the HabboxHD.
I was doing it yesterday and I apologize to those that gave me the heads up about the rule.

My feedback at this point is simple; perhaps even more of a suggestion.

Given the low numbers of the personnel in both departments (but especially the HxL Dept),
I would think it would be beneficial to both departments to allow DJ'ing from the HxHD.

I understand it has been an issue in the past, but it may be something worth allowing again.

Thanks for reading this,
-DZ-

There's really no reason for this rule to be in place, so long as DJs are active in the desk while they're on air and are able to answer questions swiftly and adequately (which is a requirement for all staff to fulfill anyway) then there doesn't seem to be any argument for stopping them going on air.

I know the general response will be 'just stream'.
But I must say, anyone can 'just stream' and anyone can just listen to any stream anywhere.
Without a live DJ, it isn't Habbox, in my opinion. The DJ (and the interaction) is what puts the personal touch onto Habbox and its radio.

When -DZ- was doing both it was fine and he telling people to come to the help desk, taking requests and shouting us all out. People were enjoying it, nothing went wrong. he didn't miss anyone needing help and even he might of I was behind the desk as well and people were in the room that could help too.

-DZ- has had requests for him to go on air today because no one is and he had to say no. I think this is a rule to be looked in to

As long as it's being done well I don't see why it is an issue. The rule stops it being acceptable but he has shown that he is capable of doing it, as which I'm sure others in both departments would be able to, as well.

Habbox Radio is very rarely online anymore, so surely it is more beneficial for Habbox itself.

I understand where you're coming from but just because you can do both, it doesn't mean everyone else can! Most DJs also talk every 10 minutes or so which would mean you'd be going to the back seats every 10 minutes which would just be rather awkward...

I do think this is a ridiculous rule, I used to dj and do my hours behind the desk all the time when I was HxHD staff and no issue came of it. While I was talking I would switch back to Habbo to keep an eye on the desk, then was able to switch back when I had finished talking.

I remember djing and behind the desk as well. It is easily done, but it needs to be done appropriately. I know on my desk top I can have it so my client and NiceCast can be side by side with no interferences.

The reason why the rule was originally in place is due to DJ's going on air and ignoring people behind the bar or vice versa. Yes, some of you may be able to juggle both but not all. Habboxlive don't currently have this rule in the handbook it is a Helpdesk rule from what I am aware.

I see where the rule comes from though, theres been DJ's in the past who completely blank their HxHD role because they're on air and it would be extremely annoying to users and other staff.

People can talk and answer queries at the same time. There's no "everyone else" it's literally just DZ that is a helpdesk staff member and a DJ isn't it? When was this rule even put into place and why?
