How the heck do you figure that there is a deal with Direct or Dish from that article. only a pumper woudl read it that way .
stop trying to add to what is not there. We have no idea who is carrying the signal and you should stop naming companys like this.
the last time that they tried to launch, this type of story destroyed the deal with Dishnetwork. i would recommend takeing that statement out of your post everywhere that you cut and pasted it at.
Man if you cause sh/t with this one you are going to spoil it for a lot of people.
think before you post we just went through a bunch of crap like this with you last week.

Has anyone seen the previews on ABC for the new reality show coming up this month? (edit: It is airing this fall not this month) It's called "Wifeswap". If you are unhappy with your marriage you can swap partners for 10 days. It has caught the attention of a few groups who are protesting it. Here is one of the sites protesting it: http://www.onemilliondads.com/IssueDetail.asp?id=158 Maybe they will take some of the negative attention off of QBID's hard launch. Who comes up with this stuff? And where can I sign up? Don't tell my wife.

No im refering to the original poster of the info.
i realise this is not your opinion.
this type of chrap has a way of spreading. in 2000 they had a deal struck with dishnetwork, and they did not keep a lid on it like they where supposed to and it all blew up in thier face. that is what confidentiality means on the hotline. Networks dont want the info out untill they can handle the influx of calls. Dishnetwork got upset last time and scrapped the deal.
I dont want to see that happen this close to launch. once bitten twice shy.

I HAD TO REPHRASE MY POST BECAUSE IT SOUNDED TO NEGATIVE.
Penny & all who think that that is what made the deal fall through.
I can understand the flood of calls but come on! Don't you think the satelite company would want to hear how many actual people would subscribe? I would think they would want the word out and I keep hearing thats what made the deal fall through..GIVE ME A BREAK! No ONE KNOWS TO THIS DAY WHY THE DEAL (IF ANY) FELL THROUGH. In fact I'm starting a new thread.

Penny Trader, you just added your negative speculation ontop of positive speculation.
It's all speculation! Most of the weekends posts have been speculation. Big deal. No sponser is going to scrap a deal they've made because someone guessed right about what was up. Also, if it's so far fetched why do you even care?

Paranoid? Maybe... But let's look at PharmBoy, what are the odds of a REAL gay person on a gay stock thread? He's gonna have to prove it...on Winsum!
Man, all I know is if I'm gonna be a good addict and stay glued to these damm posts all day, I want it to be enjoyable. I don't want to constantly distrust or bicker. This has become a huge part of my life. Thank God for the wisenhymers that keep me laughing.
I like what StonedPigeon said today when the dog tried to destroy his position as a valued member of our team. He said "I'm just the comic relief around here."
I feel the same, cuz I don't claim to be great at DD, but I am sometimes first to alert a new hotline update or mention some pertinent tv show about gay...stuff, or just a quip or two. We all play some role (except Bart, of course).

NOW THAT'S JUST WRONG. LOL. I HAVE LOTS OF PERSONALITIES. ALL OF WHICH YOU ARE ALL FAMILIAR WITH. ONLY HAVE ONE E-MAIL. SAME ONE FOR 10 YEARS OR ABOUTS.
JUST BECAUSE I EAT SKITTLES BY THE 5 LBS TUB FROM SAM'S CLUB AND JUST HAPPEN TO EAT ZANAX LIKE SKITTLES (OCCASIONALLY) AND MOST OF TIME DON'T KNOW IF I AM COMING OR GOING??? ONE OF MY PERSONALITIES MIGHT GET THEIR FEELING HURT. LOL
