--- Quote from: Gratitude on April 27, 2012, 02:55:34 PM ---While I do believe this is an open forum and everyone should be able to voice their opinion, out of personal experience I would say, we as members of this forum, have a huge responsibility and need to be very careful about anyone we recommend on this site. The reason I say so is because I am sure a lot of people read our posts and as soon as we recommend someone, I am positive others would be enticed to try the new reader. I made a few mistakes as well and recommended a few readers much sooner than I should have. I should have waited for a few more predictions to manifest before recommending anyone but going forward, I will exercise more caution in doing so. All I am saying it is wonderful to recommend readers, after all that’s one of the primary purpose of this forum; however, in doing so we must remember the tremendous responsibility we shoulder. The last thing I am sure anyone of us wants to do is unintentionally mislead another person, all the more reason we must be cognizant of all our recommendations.

great point gratitude! i know i have called a couple of people based on recommendations. of course, i would never blame anyone else as it is my choice to call. but many are struggling with psychic addiction and calling readers beyond their means. so, i agree with you 100%.
Serendipity:
From now on, when recommending readers, it might be a better idea to not disclose their website/information and just ask others to PM us if interested. I think its fine to post which prediction came true and some details, but I do believe that we also have a responsibility to protect readers we are recommending.

It does seem counterproductive to have a board where people are encouraged to recommend psychics and then people are slammed or considered "suspect" when they offer their choices.

Stonyeye,
This is just my opinion on things but I think it’s more skepticism than anger. I wouldn’t take it personally. We are all here to help others out by making recommendation of readers that have been accurate with information or predictions that have passed. Of course no one is 100 percent accurate and some readers may work for some but may not work for others. I think we also want to warn others of readers that have been completely wrong and nowhere near accurate. I also want to support others on here because we all have been there with heartbreak and wasting money on readers that is not very good or are just fake.
I do believe that we all should do a little research on the readers like reviews (good and bad) and make our decision from there. However I also understand the skepticism of good reviews on readers that no one has heard of from someone that is new on this forum, other forums, and even on ripoff reports. Please understand that readers do go on different sites and self promote or promote their friends posing as a regular person. This makes it very difficult to be able to make a decision on who is real and gifted or not. Some have been burned bad by so called real psychics because of good reviews.
I would like a reader to come on here and be honest about who they are and give reviews on good and bad experiences with psychics that they have used. The thing is some are unethical and won’t ever do this.
Anyway, I would like to know more about who you have used that have worked as well as the ones that you felt that didn’t. I feel that both will help others to make that decision.

"Gratitude- I made a few mistakes as well and recommended a few readers much sooner than I should have. I should have waited for a few more predictions to manifest before recommending anyone but going forward, I will exercise more caution in doing so."
Thanks Gratitude, the connundrum here is that I do not feel that I made any mistakes in the people I recommened. I wouldn't have listed them otherwise. I have spent a TON on Keen and called every reader mentioned here. The readers I mentioned either helped, worked for me or brought comfort. If any of you can see my previous posts. I "think" I made it pretty clear that my favorites's predictions had not yet manifested and were still in the works. I also explained when i simply simply liked their advice, empowerment received and stand by what i say about those who gave me unusually insightful details. Only ONE prediction manifested exactly as said. It wasn't the main prediction but it was a biggie. Also, the details she gave me were uncanny. - these were by LD.
Psyhic... Addicted
I am from asia and as i mentioned before i dont even remember that i am from a totally different continent. I love America and I love the people here.... its just that i experienced some of my most bitter life experiences here so m terribly missing my home country. But anyways, regarding the slamming, i didnt found any post slamming anyone .
Ohh... it i soo hard to move to another continent. I understand!!! I'm glad you like the US and completely understand the fact that you are missing home. The thing I learned is that (for me) home is alwasy still there and i was able to come back and rebuild a life in the States when i felt it was time to return. I don't know if that is an option for you, but I truly understand being homesick. As far as slamming and hurt feelings...my feelings were not hurt...more surprised by the suspicion. Some people did indeed slam in my opinion as they told me my readers were not good and questioned my ability to choose good ones. Also, i don't like that one of my favorites has been ridiculed. Justified or not by your experiences, I lke her so feel a sense of responsibility that I mentioned her name now. Not for anyone else other than her. It's other's choice to call but I feel badly that they have expressed so much anger toward her when she helped me enormously.

Yes, struggling with psychic addiction. i did this too and am finding this page a little sad in that I didn't realize quite how hard people are hoping for validation. I used it more as guidance that i could take or leave if i wished. Seeing it from that point of view now, I will not recommened psychics as I don't want to encourage false hopes or psychic addiction. I've been on that train and now i don't believe that anyone can be 100% accurate every time and to hold on so tightly to these predictions, I feel is giving away our own power of insight and choice.

I like that you have taken reader's feelings and reputations into account here. I see now that on this page, it is indeed a responsibility to recommend psychics and if they are widely critized as not working for others when they worked for ME is probably unfair.
Ok, thanks for your comments all and best of luck in finding the psychic that works best for YOU. xoxox

I found it very empowering to read reviews on here, and especially to read where some readers have given identical readings to quite a few of us. We each felt that they read us well but then to find that many were given the same words? (kind of like that video posted here awhile back). I had already had one reader do that to me (give me an identical reading 2-3 months apart) but it was disheartening to find some were doing it to many of us - which tells me that particular reader either doesn't have psychic abilities or (if I really want to be PC) they are just not connecting well.
If it wasn't for this site, it's likely that I would still be spending money on psychics as I had already gotten in the habit of doing so. I had probably spent over 10K (still afraid to add it up) and gotten myself in severe financial trouble. I already couldn't afford to live and I was spending money I didn't have. I'm not the only one in that boat either. It will take me many years to recover financially.
I was becoming too dependent on what they said or told me to do (I had called for job stuff and financial matters too, but not as often as r/s), even though many told me that I should follow my own gut and that I knew best - which I really knew! Every time I did so the situation turned out as I expected. There is a 99% probability that my ex has a PD so no one can really predict him and apparently no one can even tell me WHY he did what he did which is really what I wanted - closure.
There were some, including my favorite, that insisted I'd meet someone new. My favorite actually gave me more details on him which I'd have to look up again. And truth be told, I did meet someone new. BUT 99% of them ALSO said my ex would be back in varying times from summer 2010 to now. And THAT hasn't happened and that is why I spent so much $$ - not to find out about someone new but about when my ex would be back. And even when I started to think about this new guy when I was still calling, I'd ask about both guys and they'd always pick my ex as "the" guy for me. And nothing could be further from the truth, now that I have been able to see how it feels to have someone actually WANT to be with me and NOT freak out if I am at work without him, or working out with friends or whatever (my ex was really insecure about that, he actually lost one of his jobs because he was more focused on what I was doing and was always at MY job).
So I am grateful for this board that so many on here have given their honest thoughts and opinions and helped me be able to live MY life again, not the life someone is telling me to live. If readers can have boards bashing customers, and have the ability to delete honest feedback because they don't like it, then we can surely say what we feel on this board.
