A new feature to talk about. When you block people from your room now, the member will appear at the bottom of your chatters list in red. These members cannot communicate in your show, but you will now be able to block and unblock your problem listeners. This will minimize the amount of moderator abuse by your friends. Also, guests are now unable to chat in the rooms. Many people were complaining about this feature. They will still show up in the room, but unable to type into the chat. Hopefully this is helpful to you.
Now onto the widget. If you would like to be on the widget, it is important that you SCHEDULE your shows from now on. You need to get into the habit of this. IF you want us to put your show on the widget you are required to be on video, and be scheduled from now on. IF you do not schedule your show, then please do not come to us upset because you missed out. It's also helpful to us if you go into your profile, broadcast, edit show details, and add a little (v) beside your show name. This will be an indication to us that you'd like to be on the widget, and will have video during your show. Just make sure you schedule your show from now on. All shows not scheduled will miss out. Sorry. Another thing I'd like to mention for shows on the widget. If we ask you to clean up the language during your show, it is because you are NOT broadcasting exclusively to nowlive. The widget is streamed on many different websites, including myspace, and some of our sponsors. There is no age restriction on the widget, and the widget is used to entertain and bring new listeners to the site. We are trusting that you would like to get your name out to a larger audience with this widget, and by being inappropriate whether it be language or content, you are not only reflecting a negative image of yourself, but you are representing that same image for nowlive. Please do not stop your show while you're on the widget to talk about how it's unfair that we tell you to censor your profanity or content of your show. If we ask you to calm the content down a bit, then please do it and move on with the show. Being professional under tough circumstances will keep your show on the widget in the future.
Have fun, and entertain. Please support new shows and our live events, these are what keep the site going!
Thanks.
