Has this board ruined some Keen careers?
bstalling:
I've been noticing that not a lot of readers bother to sign onto Keen anymore. My favorites list is quite small, but I've noticed that a lot of the regulars or a lot of readers
mentioned on this board don't sign on quite often anymore. I would like to think that people google readers, come to this board and make informed decisions about who
to call. Honestly, there are not a lot of boards like this online, where even lurkers can read for years on end without posting.
I remember years ago, when forums and message boards about psychics were not really popular...one reader acquantance of mine said that clients were getting reads like crazy
and she even made up to 10K in a single day. Of course, Keen has changed some of their rules, but I would like to think this board makes an impact.

I don't think it's ruining their careers. There are still plenty of readers on there who are busy. They come and go all the time anyway. I do think though, that all of Keen's changes to sort of keep up with the times has probably pushed out a lot of the older readers who couldn't figure out the technology or who didn't want to deal with it. Not bashing on anyone. Just saying I could imagine they'd be frustrated when Keen didn't change for years and years and then suddenly, it's changing every day. I don't think reviews on here or anywhere else hurt the majority of them. I know that I personally scour reviews looking to make a decision but if I wanted to get a reading with that person before I looked at reviews, I'll probably still get the reading. I also found that I call them more because of reviews. When people have a lot of good things to say about someone, I figure I need to try them lol.
So the good ones and even the okay ones are probably doing better because of this. It's the ones who were just sort of advice or listening "psychics" that take more of a hit. These review boards are better at finding the real information like if predictions happened or if the reader was really on point about something. If the reviews on Keen are all "Thank you" or "I feel so much better" or "Very kind reader", that might look good but it doesn't tell us anything. So the advice or therapist type readers get a lot of those types of reviews and people call based off of that. But on this page, we can be more specific and talk about what the reader actually said and we can also interact with each other. I've even seen on this page where people found out the reader gave them all the same information that they thought was accurate at the time. And we can discuss psychic ability here and what that really means and why we got the reading in the first place. Anyway, I think what we review here helps the real psychics and might hurt the not so good ones but I don't think it's the source of any major changes.

I agree with Whit - probably has helped more careers than hurt.

The board is fickle. It can send a rush of clients to a reader and a bad review can result in crickets. It does have a significant effect on their pocket books, but only if they get mentioned. If they don't, then obviously not.

How much was that reader charging per minute?
