NOTICE: THIS IS ALL IN A BRAINSTORMED PROCESS, NOTHING IS FINAL. THIS IS A GENERAL OUTLINE OF HOW THINGS WILL BE. IT IS THE BASIC STRUCTURE AND WILL BE EDITED. Objective: ---------- The objective and goal is to create an SSC Wide "SS Radio" that all players from all zones across the SSC network can connect to. Thus, helping continuum become more centralized/unified/comming more together as a network, more than being seperated. Support: -------- All major SSC zone sysops/owners have said that this is a great idea for the SS community and have agreed to participate and help support the idea of an "SS Radio". All current zone radios (EG Radio, TW Radio, etc) will be redirecting listeners to the new "SS Radio" as well. Protocol: --------- All zones will be given connection information, which will then be passed down to the zone's choice of DJ's. The DJ's will have a time slot of when they will be hosting radio for their represented zone. Each DJ can represent their zone on air by mildly advertising, hosting events, doing shout outs, taking song request, and just having fun. Its all pretty much about having fun while playing. Stress free, listening to music, and just enjoy yourselves. Advertising: ------------ Advertising of zones is allowed, as long as it is under control. There is a difference between "MG is current having a big prized event, you should come check it out." and "OMG COME TO TW, ITS THE BEST ZONE EVAR, COME COME COME" after every song. If there are DJs that would like to go zone hopping and give information on all zones, thats fine too. A simple "Im in DS now and theres alot of pop in here, big flag game going on, jackpot is big." and a couple minutes later saying "Just came into EG and staff is giving out free prizes". As long as it is subtle and mild, then its all fine, and actually encouraged to advertise, that is what its all about, spreading the word across the SSC Network's players. Zone Airing Rotation: --------------------- A rotation is currently not set up. I will be having discusions with zone owners/sysop/participants about it. When everyone comes to an agreement, it will then be posted and put into effect. I understand there are alot of zones and little time, I will try to work out the best schedule. Rules: ------ --No obnoxious/m!@#$%^&* advertising (Read the "Advertising Section") --No har!@#$%^&*ment towards listeners/players (Dont trash talk people or groups of people) --No obsessive/overboard swearing (Be mature, use common sense) --No inappropriate sounds/songs on air (No racist/pornographic material) --Songs must be played (You cant sit there and talk for an hour) --No racism/racist comments or materials. (Zero tolerance. Period End.) Moderation: ------------- The majority of moderation will be the listeners themselves. If there are alot of complaints about a specific DJ, the problem will be talked about and resolved. Also, there will be a few people I might pick just to pop in and listen to check if any rules are being broken. SS Radio site will have a "complains" section. This, as well as everything else, is not final. Host: ----- Boba from EG radio has been the decided host for the server. A very big thanks to him. Website: ---------- SyrusMx has let me know that he has a current radio site that isnt being used. I still have to talk to him about it. I have talked to Polix, and it will be hosted on SScentral.com. If anyone would like to help develop a website, then please contact me. Participants: ------------- The following list is a list of people/zones I have talked to, and who will help support SS Radio: SSCC Star Wars Empire SSCC Desert Storm SSCC Metal Gear CTF SSCE Hyperspace SSCU Extreme Games SSCX Chaos/League Zone SVS SSCE Hockey Zone SSCU Death Star Battle SSCU Trench Wars SSCX PowerBall T3 The Gauntlet SSCW Unreal Tournament SSCI Fusion Polix (www.sscentral.com) Ghost Ship (Biller-Wide Advertisements) Also, all zone owners/sysops have agreed to advertise the SS radio as far as zone websites/forums go, as well as in-game. And I thank all of you again with your support. Remember, this is all just the first step on setting this idea up. Nothing is yet set in stone. There will be changes and adjustments to certain things. Right now, this is just a heads up for all of you to discuss upon, and to get psyched about!
