Yeah I am trying to get rid of a few of my dogs to get more before it runs up again myself. I sold during one of the stagnant periods a little while back and am slowly going back up. Sitting at about 1.5 mill right now but would like to get back over 2 mil soon.

So much support for this thing at .0021 it's ridiculous. I've never seen a flat RSI for QBID in the last 6 months. This is definitely a first. Someone is accumulating a crapload.
-------------------- As a forum poster, it is ironic that you are held to a higher standard than a Pink Sheet CEO.

i don't know if i can answer you with an average.
but i know we have people in here with 40,000 and we have people with over 10 million.
there are a number of us in the 1-2 million area.
i for instance have 2.2 million.
i know in the last week we have had several that have just joined the million club.
my advice to you is to do your dd and only invest what you feel confident in doing so. this is still a pink sheet stock and nothing is guaranteed. only invest what you are prepared to loose.
with that said i feel that there is little risk in this stock at this price. The CEO on numerous occasions has stated there will be no Reverse splits as long as the current management are in control. the potential is enormous. and the key to the whole puzzle that my friend Whiz has reinforced for me is that there are no genuine national networks that trade for under a dollar. Franks goal is to have a national network/ international network. Frank has also pointed out that the BET network never made a dime and was bought out for 5 Billion dollars. if we where to get that type of a buy out with the current understanding of the O/S that would translate into .38 cents.
so in conclusion i would like to welcome you to our board, and if you decide to jump on board, I wish you all the best in your investment and would be glad to shake your hand when we all meet in Vegas when this one hits the moon.

Frank is definatly doing his buyback as we speak.
look at the large block that have been bought in the late day trading both yesterday and today. nearly one third of yesterdays volume was all bought in the last 5 minutes of yesterdays session in very very large blocks.
either Frank is buy back or someone is very interested in this thing. I will guarantee you one thing. they are not throwing that kinda money at this thing to loose it. They know whats up and i believe what is up is the pps very very soon.

Q Television Network From Kathy Belge, Your Guide to Lesbian Life. FREE Newsletter. Sign Up Now!
Lesbian and Gay TV Network I had the opportunity to talk with Frank Olsen, CEO and President of Q Television Network, a new TV channel for gays and lesbians. Q Television will show programming for the gay, lesbian, bisexual and trans community. This television network was created to develop a network devoted to providing television programming for the gay and lesbian community. While the company expects much of its subscriber base to be comprised of members of the gay and lesbian population, management also believes that quality programming about the gay and lesbian experience, designed to entertain, educate and inform, will attract many other segments of the viewing public. The company's programming will be available on a subscription basis to those desiring its programming. The network will broadcast 24 hours per day, 7 days per week beginning in late 2004. Here's what Frank Olsen, president of Q Television had to say.
KB: Where did the idea of Q Television first come from?
I got the idea for Q Television from watching Trinity broadcasting. I saw how loyal the Christian viewers were and knew that the gay community would be just as loyal. If the Christians could have their own station, so could the gays.
What types of programming will you offer?
We will major in interactive programming with the gay community. We will also have sports, information and entertainment procured throughout the gay and lesbian community by our 70% gay production team.
Will all of your content be original, or will you be showing LGBT movies and other shows that have appeared in the theaters or on TV?
We will have approximately 25% original programming - the answer to the rest is "Yes."
What differentiates your network from the other queer stations in the works. (I have heard of one being put out by MTV.)
I don't know. I haven't seen anyone else's gay programming. I do know that ours will be predominantly gay owned and operated and we want to give back as much to the GLBT community as we get, through our programming, sponsorships, etc. We are not here just to take their money. We are here to support, inform, entertain, interact with and be an active part of the gay community.
When will you be on the air?
In a few days, I hope. We are correcting some technical difficulties right now.
How can people check out the programming on Q Television?
By mid-October we should be in 7 major markets across the USA and we expect 100,000 customers by December. We will offer 30 days free viewing in all broadcast areas. We hope to be in 55% of the country by mid-January. Remember that Q Television is a baby right now, just as MTV was 20 years ago, and we have to grow. We will be inclusive and make programming for the entire gay community as we grow. The $7.95 subscription fee is for two reasons: 1) to generate revenue for the cable/satellite companies and 2) because we want to be in people's homes at their invitation ONLY. We will be there because they WANT us to be there.

here is a poll from IHUB and the results are being sent ot Richard the IR guy.
i have spoke to several here about it off line so i thought i would post it for all to see.
SURVEY PARTICPANTS AND INVESTORS PLEASE READ
1. How much progress do you think the company has made in the last 6 months?
52.66% voted for A lot 28.50% voted for Enough 17.39% voted for Very little 00.97% voted for No answer
What this tells me is that 81% of the investors reading this board are happy with the progress that QTN has made for the last six months. I take it as meaning they are happy with the website changes, adding reputable sponsors, getting Gay Games contract, etc. etc. This is one area QTN has actually made some things happen and the results show.
2. Do you feel the company is moving at a steady pace?
74.88% voted for Yes 22.22% voted for No 02.42% voted for No answer
This question has a lot to do with the first question and the next question. People are feeling that QTN is keeping a steady pace in who they are involved with. The companies they are working with, going to the NCTA show, Dinah Golf shore road show and stuff like that. They have issued a ton of PR’s and appear to have their hand in the jar in a lot of arenas; which then shows us why our next question results are so strong.
3. How do you feel about QTN following thru on their PR's?
79.23% voted for Not satisfied 19.32% voted for Satisfied 00.48% voted for Very satisfied 00.48% voted for No answer
Again, this is very clear. Look at questions 1 and 2, though QTN is moving along and investors are happy with their pace; the majority of investors here don’t think they are coming thru with all those PR’s. This may be a result of too much at one time syndrome. It sort of feels like QTN is puting quite a bit on their plate, that is all fine and good; but we would love to see these PR’s come to fruition. Sadly to say, not all, but a lot of them haven’t came true. This doesn’t mean they won’t, but it does mean they are not hitting the dates they are claiming.
4. Do you think it is time for another conference call?
80.19% voted for Yes 18.36% voted for No 00.97% voted for No answer
This question goes right with number 3. Lack of follow thru = upset investors. People want answers, so in turn they want to speak with management. The only TRUE way to go about that is getting another conference call. It has been over 6 months; it appears that the majority here think it is time for one. Let’s hope they see the results and take that into account.
5. Overall, how good do you feel about your investment?
45.89% voted for Not satisfied 37.20% voted for Satisfied 14.01% voted for Very satisfied 02.42% voted for No answer
Well this is a tougher one. This question mixes in the mind state of what average PPS you bought in at. Obviously if you bought in at .017 cents you are very worried and not overall satisfied with your investment. Mix in the lack of follow thru on some of these PR’s and you are down right mad. On the other hand with some of the progress QTN has made and if your average is from .0001 to .004, your stress isn’t near as high. Overall those folks would probably still feel good about their investment. These numbers are close, only 51% are satisfied or very satisfied. 46% are not satisfied, this would lead us to believe that if QTN doesn’t start answering some questions, sell offs will be happening from higher stuck longs and traders alike.
This survey produced some great results. I am forwarding it on to IR, hoping to hear some feedback from his reaction. 207 investors took this survey and I want to thank each and every one of you. We will be puting up a new survey soon. I will get the specifics and would appreciate if you continue to fill these out.
I am open for any debate you folks have on this survey, please share with the board if you disagree with my assessment. My paragraphs are only the opinion of myself, and the way I am reading these results.
Thanks again for your time and good luck in whatever you do, lobo
I will be posting this several times throughout the day, so please don't be discouraged. We want everyone to see the results and people read at different times.

Dear uhartford,
I see you've already gotten a few replies reminding you that this is pink and to do your own DD, BUT. . . .yada, yada, yada!
This thread VERY optimistically refers to the stock being a powder keg, perhaps but I am uncertain as whether it will be an explosion or an implosion.
Bear in mind that in early 2004 this stock skyrocketed. . .for less than 4 months. Since then it basically tumbled downhill, with a few brief, unsustained spikes.
Once upon a time there were some regular, very optimistic and vocal posters who were very pro this stock. Most of them no longer post here. Are they lurking or did they quit believing.
You still see lots of posts of, "this is the week for the BIG PR", "See you in Vegas", etc. But over a year later, no big PR is ever seen. There are LOTS of PR's that hint at good news or progress, but there never seems to be follow-up to them. My examples would be a celebrity host for the good morning show, a New York office, Q on the Move being televised and now the "potential" move to a new exchange.
As many unfulfilled commitments as Frank has made, I'd think he would never posture again, but silence is not golden to him.
You'll see lots of long term excitement for the 2006 Gay Games in Chicago. I believe that Q has actually signed to carry them. Forgive me for being a cynic, but so? Had you ever heard of the Gay Games prior to this? There are lots of games that feature Olympic stars, such as the Pan American games, but does anybody care? So the Gay Games is a huge deal because. . .?
And yet again, in the interest of full disclosure, I'm a huge holder and currently a HUGE loser. I really believed in this company and in all the past PR's.
We started at .0001 and we're much closer to that number now than we are to it's long ago hyped high of .028.
Good luck to you and Frank and everyone here. Having newbies believe is the only way I can ever recover, but I have a hard time serving up Kool-Aid for my own recovery.

I know you believe that I'm playing some game and I only wish that it were true.
As to who I am, well, I am who I am. I'm just a housewife who believed and is now way upside down.
You are someone who I believe, well believes! You seem sincere and kind and all that so, you are someone that I especially hope the best for.

Anyway, since we're chatting so nicely, I'll disclose this. Everyone can take it as an interesting bit or laugh at me. I don't especially care which.
Recently I had a sit down with a very elderly oriental psychic. He told me some amazing spot on things. He finished by telling me that I had really suffered some big investment losses recently but it was all going to turn around in a BIG way on June 29.
Of course I told my husband and he got a big chuckle out of it. So, 2 days later he also went to see him. You guessed it, he got the same story with the same HUGE payoff on June 29.
We also knew other people who went to him and they weren't given the same story.
So, would I bet the bank on what he said? Of course not! I've already bet the bank on what Frank's said. Just something to keep in mind.

look at the large buys that are happening after hours
bear with me for a minute im going to post the rules for a buyback of stocks.
a couple of the most interesting points of the buyback rules are that they have to be bought all through the same agent and only in the last 10 minutes of trading and after hour trading.
the other interesting point it that they can buy up to 25% of the days volume in the aftermarket trading. This would explain the large volumes that has been going on for the last little while.
think about it for a while and you will see what im talking about. They are buying back the stock, they are not doing this to fail. they are looking to better thier possitions.
ok im going to go and make my next post with the rules of a buyback.

I am new to posting here but I have been lurking for quite some time. I feel like I know you all already. I spent most of my time over at ihub but its getting really rough and crude over there. It's a shame.
Long on QBID since October 2004. I own 1.3 million shares and hoping to add some more but money is tight.
Frank would be a fool not to be doing the buyback now. If you are going to spend the money you has set aside for cameras and equipment, do the buyback as cheap as you can as soon as you can. IMO.

here are the rules that i mentioned above. i didnt post the whole thing it is a long read you can visit the site if you want to see more
i highlighted the points that prove to me that they are doing the buyback. they are following the rules laid out for them. they are more then half way through the post
Regulation of Stock Repurchase Programs Under the Federal Securities Laws December 10, 2003
Many public companies employ stock repurchase programs to increase shareholder value at times when their outstanding securities are perceived to be underpriced or to minimize the dilution caused by the use of stock in acquisitions or employee plans. Issuers must design repurchase programs to comply with a number of potentially applicable provisions contained in the federal securities laws. The purpose of this memorandum is to outline these provisions very briefly and to serve as a basis for additional discussions with legal counsel.
In addition to the federal securities law provisions discussed in this memorandum, applicable state corporate and securities laws and the issuer’s own charter documents and contractual arrangements (including, for example, bank credit facilities) must be reviewed before beginning any stock repurchase program to determine additional restrictions. Stock repurchases are often treated as the equivalent of dividend distributions under state corporate laws, charter provisions and loan and other financing agreements which restrict dividend distributions. Stock repurchase programs may also raise important accounting issues, and consequently, issuers should consult their public accountants as well as their legal counsel before beginning a stock repurchase program.
In recent years, issuers and investment bankers have developed and implemented a variety of techniques to accelerate buy-backs or hedge market risk during repurchase programs. The special legal issues posed under federal securities laws by accelerated stock buy-back transactions or by use of puts, calls, costless equity collars or comparable devices are beyond the scope of this general memorandum.
Market Manipulation Safe Harbor: Rule 10b-18
Stock purchases by an issuer and its affiliates are subject to the anti-manipulation provisions of Sections 9(a)(2) and 10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. These provisions make it unlawful (1) to manipulate prices of a security by creating actual or apparent trading in such security or by raising or depressing the price of such security, and (2) to use any manipulative or deceptive device or contrivance in contravention of SEC rules in connection with the purchase or sale of any security.
Rule 10b-18 under the Exchange Act provides a nonexclusive safe harbor from the provisions of Sections 9(a)(2) and 10(b) for open market bids and purchases of stock by issuers and persons considered to be “affiliated purchasers” insofar as such bids or purchases might be deemed unlawfully manipulative solely by reason of their time, price or amount or the number of brokers or dealers used. An “affiliated purchaser” under Rule 10b-18 is a person acting in concert with the issuer for the purpose of acquiring the issuer’s securities, or is an affiliate that, directly or indirectly, controls the issuer’s purchases, or whose purchases are controlled by, or under common control with, those of the issuer. This definition will normally cover a parent company of the issuer as well as officers and directors having responsibility for the issuer’s purchases.
Rule 10b-18 does not apply to tender offers, purchases by an employee benefit plan effected by an independent agent and certain other purchases. The rule is not a safe harbor from violations of Rule 102 of Regulation M under the Exchange Act (which restricts purchases of securities that are the subject of a distribution) or violations of Section 10(b) and Rule 10b-5 that entail conduct other than manipulation solely by reason of the time, price or amount of repurchases or the number of brokers or dealers used. For example, if an issuer or affiliated purchaser engages in repurchases while aware of material nonpublic information of a favorable nature, there may be a violation of Section 10(b) and Rule 10b-5, notwithstanding compliance with Rule 10b-18.
In order to take advantage of the safe harbor provided by Rule 10b-18, an issuer and its affiliated purchasers must comply with all of the conditions of the rule:
One Broker or Dealer Per Day. All Rule 10b-18 bids or purchases on behalf of the issuer or any affiliated purchaser must be made from or through a single broker or dealer on any single day. All such bids or purchases made on behalf of more than one affiliated purchaser, or the issuer and one or more affiliated purchasers, on a single day, must similarly be made during the primary trading sessions in the markets in which the security is traded from or through a single broker or dealer. A separate broker is permitted to effect after-hours trades.Because of the complexity of complying with Rule 10b-18, issuers and affiliated purchasers contemplating a market repurchase program normally make prior arrangements with one broker or dealer having extensive experience in such programs to carry out the entire program on their behalf. Timing of Purchase. A bid or purchase by or for an issuer must not constitute the day’s opening transaction for the security. Issuers who have (i) an Average Daily Trading Volume (“ADTV”) value of $1 million or more, and (ii) a Public Float Value (i.e., the aggregate market value of common equity securities held by non-affiliates of the issuer) of $150 million or more, are qualified to bid or purchase up to 10 minutes prior to the close of the primary trading session in any market in which the security trades. All other issuers are prohibited from bidding or purchasing during the period 30 minutes prior to the close of the primary trading session. Bids and purchases by or for an issuer in after-hours trading are permitted provided the issuer does not enter the opening bid in such trading and the purchase price does not exceed the lower of the closing price in the principal market for the security and any lower bids or sale prices subsequently reported in other markets. The Rule 10b-18 safe harbor is not available for any bids or purchases by or for an issuer during a merger or other similar acquisition transaction. The unavailability of the safe harbor commences from the time of public announcement of the transaction and continues until the earlier of the completion of the transaction or the completion of the vote by target shareholders (but is extended for any valuation period where the market price of a security will be a factor in determining the merger consideration being paid). Three exceptions permit repurchases during a merger or acquisition: (i) when the merger consideration is solely cash and there is no valuation period; (ii) for purchases not exceeding the lesser of 25% of the security’s four-week ADTV or the issuer's average daily 10b-18 purchases during the full three calendar months preceding the date of announcement; and (iii) for block purchases not exceeding the average size and frequency of the issuer’s block purchases during the full three calendar months preceding the date of announcement. Any repurchase pursuant to these exceptions, however, must also comply with the requirements of Regulation M, if applicable.
Price of Purchase. The purchase price for the security may not exceed the higher of the highest independent bid or the last transaction price. If an issuer is relying on the bid to support a higher price, at least two independent bids are required for any security traded on an exchange or inter-dealer quotation system. Three bids are required for securities traded on the OTC Bulletin Board system of the NASD (OTC-BB), the pink sheets or in any other market. Volume of Purchases. An issuer’ purchases, when aggregated with any affiliated purchasers acquisitions, may not exceed 25% of ADTV in any trading day. An issuer’s block purchases are generally included in the 25% limit and in the calculation of ADTV. Issuers may make one block purchase per week without being subject to the 25% ADTV limitation, provided the block purchase is the only purchase by or on behalf the issuer in reliance on the safe harbor on that day. Shares purchased pursuant to this block purchase exception may not be included in calculating ADTV.
Complying with the Rule 10b-18 conditions requires an issuer to identify all its affiliated purchasers and coordinate all their open market bids and purchases with its own. Issuers also must maintain accurate recordkeeping systems in order to accurately report the information necessary to comply with the disclosure and reporting obligations of the Rule. The conditions and reporting obligations of Rule 10b-18 are complex, and the rule itself, rather than these summaries, should be consulted for technical compliance.

Great post Rod! Thanks for all your in depth DD,I appreciate it. People like you with your great knowledge of stocks and how things work keep me positive and looking forward to our Q Future!
Also Welcome Optimus Prime! You are right about IHUB,nothing but bashing each other and stocks.
I believe Rod is correct saying Frank is buying back now. Look at his DD to prove how Frank has to do it.
And We all know Frank isn't a fool...we have a great leader! Go Q!
You stumbled on to something that in my mind full confirms what I had already believed internally.
Very very nice find.
I am buying more on Monday morning without hesitation. I may be able to scrounge up enough to get me back over 2 million.
I have known all along that this was a major event waiting to happen, while my confidence has faltered at times like everyone elses I am sure I never completely lost the faith.
Also, BlackWidow, as far as psychics go I dont have any belief or expectations in their "predictions", however... about 10 years ago I ran into one by chance when I was helping her family with something else. She had retired due to a number of factors related to her "gift" and knowledge she had learned that hurt her personally and disturbed her a great bit. I didnt ask, I didnt care, but unsolicited she gave me some personal family information about myself and my future. Some of it was very bad news, horrific actually, some of I was not. She claimed to predict many of my future life events.
I hope with all my being she is off base on some of them, but she did essentially tell me I would retire somewhere between 37 and 40 and live the dream I have always wanted. I turned 37 this month. I have also made strides towards many of the other things she commented on as well as some of her bad news has come true over the years. Self fulfilling prophecy? Maybe, but some of the bad news was related to others and certain life ending events and/or unforeseen illnesses that I could in no way influence. These also have been dead on.
I dont and have never planned my life based on her information, and I would be silly to do so, but every once in a while something happens out of the blue that leaves me speechless and with a very weird creep me out deja vu effect to it.
