RE: Just Readings Poll
hmmm, I'm sorry but I just couldn't select any of the pollingchoices offered. Maybe putting on a new folder for reading requests would help? That would give people the chance to at least voice their "need" and offer a new vehicle for a chance at having it fulfilled. Limit of one a month unless you get canned from your job (raises hand) [:o]3 times in a year due to no fault of your own... then you can ask once a week.[:@] Ouch. LOL. See? Situations arise,one may really NEED 2 a month.
The other point is well taken too. It is true that I have felt so lucky and amazed to be able to get in on any reading opportunities at allas I'm from across the pond and I so wished that new offers would be posted at about 6 p.m. MY time so I'd at least have a shot at them...
What the inaccessability "forced" me to do on a desperate occassion or two (not proud of this but there you are) was beg in a lonely and illegal post for a reading, or stick my name in on some poor soul's threadwho had very clearly stated "FIRST 3 REQUESTS" because I knew I could never achieve that magical first 3 status!!! and then there are those lovely intuities, psychics, pendies, or card readers, who areforced to stress that "I'VE GOT ALL MY PEOPLE, NO MORE REQUESTS" because those of us naughty HPrs (who apparently can't read norcomprehend the King's English...) keep posting and begging and saying, "I understand if you can't..." we're just hoping you'll take pity on us -- oh the guilt we impose.
So, maybe a place where we CAN ask would help. :eek:What'd you think?
RE: Just Readings Poll
I personally live by "what is for you will come to you" and have found at times when I felt I needed guidance I have logged on and and usually find that the first post I come to is one offering a reading. I can understand some peoples frustrations at not getting to the post in time, but I know if the person requireing a reading where to politely PM me and ask for a reading I wouldn't refuse. I think we should all show restraint. We know when we are asking for a reading for fun or curiosity, and should limit ourselves to only asking when we really need it.
Just my thoughts.
Take Care

LOL - Hi American Woman - you deserve more than 1 a month just for making me laugh this morning (In a nice way)
Seriously, I do think a folder for Reading Requests seems a good idea as a Reader would be drawn to those in need... but how would a person feel if their request was ignored? would they think the worse?

Absolutly which is why requests on HP have always been a no no, there's more people wanting a reading then there are readers, some requests will get ignored and that could leave the requester feeling worse, which is one of the main reasons why I started the seap forum, anyone can do an oracle card reading, and with practice they will most likely suprise themselves at how apt a few oracles can be:D
but I know if the person requireing a reading where to politely PM me and ask for a reading I wouldn't refuse. I think we should all show restraint. We know when we are asking for a reading for fun or curiosity, and should limit ourselves to only asking when we really need it.

Hi Donna, I agree completely, but the only thing about requesting a reading via pm from a reader you can bet your bottom dollar[&:](ooo what am I saying) that you won't be the only one sending a pm..the trouble with pm's is...and speaking from experince so maybe it's just me[:o], you tend to forget...well I do[:o][:o]
Anyway...gotta go, I've got a poorly 4 year old today:(
xxxxx ps,thanks for voteing
RE: Just Readings Poll
3 guesses what i voted for....;)
re for those who feel they are in urgent need of a reading but miss out on places, amy posted a 'sticky' some time ago which has links to websites that offer computer generated readings and if my memory serves me well ( which it dosen't as i'm full of head cold today!), there is a link for TABI which does have live readings.:D
a favourite of mine is the isle of avalon website ( computer generated) which gives really great guidance!
