Currently a user can click on the cheer button to cheer.

We can add an OPTIONAL way to cheer: hold down the cheer button (instead of clicking) for up to 30 seconds, and it will auto-cheer at a normal human rate for up to 30 seconds at a time. (Can be 30 seconds or a different value.)

Please provide feedback on whether you think this option should be enabled, and reasons for your conclusion.

If you like the idea, you can suggest the maximum time until you have to restart it (30 seconds, or whatever).


thanks!

Considering one of the performers just broke their SECOND MOUSE in a few weeks, perhaps AUTO CHEER is a good idea after all! We can be a bit heavy on clicking!!!

VIP: make it LESS CLICK WORK to keep these shows going - nobody in real life sits and clicks to keep the music going.. when only 25 or less people are watching this venue, keep them all online without them always always always having to click and click again or the player stops and says '' hey are you there''  but it happens so often.  

yes also find a way to applaud lots without clicking a million times... make it less busy work and i promise people will use the extra time to listen to music.
google proved that even a millisecond of wasted time costs huge numbers of viewers, let the music flow, keep the music playing dj.. quit letting it stop...
also, give listeners the option to keep archive play on until it's finished, currently a live performer always bumps.. we should be able to vote and if 80% of people gong someone, they should be gonged off the stage for that song.. rare but it would be useful to have that.

We need to verify people are still at their computer watching because we have to pay significant dollars to provide the streaming service. Even if 50 people walked away from their computer and we let it stream for an hour (instead of 6 minutes) it would cost us hundreds of dollars per month in extra expense.

We used to have the option of allowing people to watch the archive but many performers complained they should not have to wait for an archive clip in any circumstance and so we changed things around which generally has been quit well received.

The jury is still out on the auto-cheer. Votes are split (from emails) about 50/50. We might make it an option for frequent audience members.

Stay tuned and thanks for the feedback!
