Defiant36 Posted June 29, 2011 Share Posted June 29, 2011 Me and my friend are considering making a RuneScape radio show. There are similar radio shows/pod-casts all over the internet for different games such as World of Warcraft or League of Legends. What me and my friend are concerned about are two things: 1. Would anyone listen to it? Would you listen to it if we broadcasted once a week? We're thinking about every Wednesday around 7pm est. 2. We are in need of a third person. I feel that to make a good radio show you need 3 people and preferably one of them is a girl. However, we don't know any girls that would do this crazy show with us. So do you, or do you know anyone that would, want to be our third host? Please let me know what you guys think. We are still just messing around with the idea and I would really appreciate some feedback. Check out my RS streaming channel! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robert_R Posted June 29, 2011 Share Posted June 29, 2011 Someone, somewhere will listen to it. Just do it and see how it goes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaida23 Posted June 29, 2011 Share Posted June 29, 2011 What kind of stuff would you broadcast? All talk? All music? A combination of both? What would you talk about? How long would the show run? Sounds like an interesting idea. Let us know when you get it running and I'll check it out. Check out my blog to read the Adventures of a Big Damn (F2P) Hero. THE place for all free players to connect, hang out and talk about how awesome it is to be F2P. So, Kaida is the real version of every fictional science-badass? That explains a lot, actually...

RussetAlpha Posted June 29, 2011 Share Posted June 29, 2011 You know, that doesn't sound half-bad. It would depend on what would be broadcasted, though.

Monky Posted June 29, 2011 Share Posted June 29, 2011 Hate to break it to you but Zybez radio is already the most popular runescape radio with over 40 dj''s and many talk show/events.

Nifflin Posted June 29, 2011 Share Posted June 29, 2011 I would certainly give it a try and keep listening if it's good. PM me in game anytime It's a lot easier then that for an idiot to sound smart on the internet. That's exactly what you're doing right now... just saying.

Salad Posted June 29, 2011 Share Posted June 29, 2011 Hate to break it to you but Zybez radio is already the most popular runescape radio with over 40 dj''s and many talk show/events. So what? OP, if you plan on sticking to the idea and actually putting weekly shows and talk about interesting stuff, I'd probably listen to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monky Posted June 29, 2011 Share Posted June 29, 2011 So there isnt a niche in this market... By all means make a radio... hell, id probs tune in once in a while. But with the crew and development of Zybez radio, i cant see it being better or having as many events as it.

How long would the show run? Sounds like an interesting idea. Let us know when you get it running and I'll check it out.We were thinking about an hour long show with some 2 or 3 min breaks. So a run time of about 40 min. It would be talking during the show, music during the break. As for the topics, we were thinking about runescape updates, things that happened over the week (like if one of us got 99 pray or something), and some random other stuff that really doesn't involve runescape. We are still brainstorming ideas of course. Any suggestions would be nice. Check out my RS streaming channel! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Salad Posted June 29, 2011 Share Posted June 29, 2011 I personally didn't know Zybez had a radio, yet I check Zybez weekly for penguins locations. Zybez's radio might be popular among the Zybez community, but that's a minority compared to what the whole Runescape Community is. If OP can provide good content that's fun to listen to and in a entertaining way, I don't see why he should give up the idea of making a Radio. McDonald's is one of the top of the fast food industry. Yet, KFC exists, Burger King, Taco Bell, Pizza Hut and thousands others. Not everyone likes McDonald's, that's why they go to another restaurant, because of their taste. If one doesn't like Zybez's radio, he would probably try to find one that suits him the best. Diversity is always a win. @above, maybe try talking about videos from YouTube, new guieds or music videos, or a YouTuber that will potentially get big, bugs or glitches that had an impact on Runescape, rollback in time on previous updates and how stuff was back then.

That's like saying, "Can there only be one rock/rap/techno/pop/country/etc. radio station?" Diversity is good.

No, of course there can be more... But bear in mind to compete with zybez you would need to account for other peoples times zones (Zybez is 24/7), Have a large (very large) collection of music with a few dj's from different time zones willing to put their time into your station. Host events ingame during your shows... By all means go for it, i just think you wouldnt hold it out with a 3 man team.

Keep it mind, OP probably wants to make a radio show for FUN, he doesn't want to compete with Zybez. TBH, I'd prefer a weekly 1 hour show that's made by people who are having fun, then a 24/7 station where the hosts seem forced to do their own show. @OP, I don't know how exactly, but you could broadcast your show live somewhere, record it, and put it on iTunes for people to download for free. I know lots of people do that, and that would be great since people could listen to your show, whenever they want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dormado Posted June 29, 2011 Share Posted June 29, 2011 Hate to break it to you but Zybez radio is already the most popular runescape radio with over 40 dj''s and many talk show/events. hate to break it to you, but Zybez is advocating boting, many forms of scamming and gold buying, only immoral people would feel good listening to their radio. Do it OP, I'm very curious how this would turn out. The clock is ticking, and your time is running out, mortals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mdeoxys Posted June 29, 2011 Share Posted June 29, 2011 Maybe you can bring up stuff that happens around these forums as well, interesting now topics for example.I think that if you brainstorm for a few minutes you can come up with loads of stuff to talk about!I'd listen to that.
