have you ever heard the term broken record?

very unintelligent people tend to grasp on to a single point and repeat it over and over again.

think about this for a second pennytrader. frank quoted he owned 53% of QBID's O/S. and weeks later i emailed QBID investor relations to ask what the O/S count was. QBID IR emailed me a response saying they dont know the final share count due to the "dirty shell they aquired". but weeks before QBID stated frank olsen owned 53% of the O/S. for them to know that frank owns 53%, they must know the outstanding share count. but, they choose to hide it, and try to cover it with a b*ll**** awnser. you email IR about this issue and they wont respond because the truth is ugly.

they dont have to release the numbers. it is a pink sheet and they need the info hidden. that is why they are on the pinks.

you dont like the unknown then dont invest.


plain and simple, you dont like it protect your money.

we like the risk we will hold on.

you can not expect others to run because you said so.

why would you worry about our shares unless you wanted them.

stop with the crap. you want to discuss it intelegently then fine.

bring some infor in here to back your theories.

we all know they are not reporting, you dont need to tell us that. tell us stuff we dont know. like your real intentions here.

Thank you

I remember when my boys were 3 and 5. They knew how to drive me crazy by asking over and over: "Why daddy, why daddy, why daddy, why?" When I read some of the posts here, I have flash-back memories of those little boys. (By the way, the answer is always "Because I said so.")

You didn't answer my last questions, but I'll take another shot and will make the questions very short and direct.

1) Do you currently own QBID shares?

2) If you own shares, why?

3) If you own shares, when do you plan to dump to avoid total loss when your "bankruptcy" prediction occurs?

4) If you do not own shares, why are you posting? You have the right to post, but I do not understand your reason for doing so.

As I stated before, I am not trying to argue. I am trying to understand the reasoning behind your comments. But I cannot learn if you do not provide answers to my questions. I will check back later. Hope to hear from you.

Gay/Lesbian Nets Cast for Talent

By Simon Applebaum

The launch of MTV Networks' Logo on June 30 means there are now three networks that need to be sure gays and lesbians are well represented in their workforces--the others being here! TV and Q Television Network.

"We have to grow a culture where what we do at work reflects the diversity we put on the screen," says here! TV general manager Karen Flischel. Of the 25 staffers at here!, 45% are gay or lesbian, Flischel says. Search firms, job banks and specialty newspaper ads are used to attract gay and lesbian talent. The network also offers same-sex partner insurance.

At Q, 50 of its 73 employees are gay or lesbian. Q relies on gay/lesbian news organizations and websites to recruit talent, and consults with GLAAD, the advocacy organization representing gays and lesbians. Workplace benefits include partner insurance and an on-site doctor. "That's healthy for a good workplace relationship," says Q CEO Frank Olsen.

MTV Networks e-mailed a statement that noted that it recruits "without regard to...sex, gender expression."

I take a similar outlook. As a long term investor, I ask myself this: "If I were to leave the forums and market and come back to this stock in one year, assuming that I had to choose one or the other: would the PPS be higher or lower than today's closing price?"

Knowing all that I do about QBID I can pretty assuredly know that in a year they will easily have at least one national carrier and will be the only reasonable alternative to LOGO. they'll be fighting a pretty fierce battle for market share competing with LOGO, hereTV, and several new smaller carriers that are trying to get in on the US GLBT network programming arena. Forum talk will be about finding "the next QBID" among those smaller carriers.

This will almost certainly be trading higher next year. Everyone knows it, but they are only trying to get into QBID for a "quick bounce". Let me tell you right now, when this does its next bounce into the penny range, it's not going to come back down. There will be no more chances to "get back in" after a carrier announcement is made. From that point on, it'll only be a steady PPS increase of a growing stock. Then we'll probably see a reverse split timed with a new listing on the Amex.

NOTE: I know Frank has said there will be no reverse split, but what he's really saying is that there won't be on the Pink Sheets. Everyone knows Pink Sheets that don't reverse split are rare, so QBID is one of those rarities. Once he intends to move to a new exchange he's pretty much going to HAVE to do a R/S though. And that's okay.

All of the reverse splits I have heard of have been devastating to someone holding shares in that company. Why, in your opinion, would it be ok with QBID?

I bought this stock back at .0024, when the only exposure Q had was a top ten list mention on the Dave Letterman show. News of private investors and 30,000 people saying "I want my QTV!" from their first road show drove it to .0055. I sold around .0046 just because I was only in this short term.

In just 4 short months since, QTV is pratically a gay household term, they are at nearly every gay pride event in the nation, and new and LIVE shows run on a daily basis. This is not a sign of a fledgling and floundering network, struggling to get word of itself out anymore. It's a network that is determined to show its professionalism and has a team that is willing to put in the extra effort to do so.

It wouldn't surprise me if there are some "in-the-closet" carriers/networks that are threatened by Viacom's entry into the market on June 30th, and have been doing behind-the-back deals with Q Television. Even more suggesting of this is Frank's reluctance to talk about it, citing that he doesn't want to make the same mistake he once made with DISH about carrying the program.

This stock is definitely not trading above 15 billion shares, they should immediately request that the authorized shares be notched back down to 15 billion so that the bashers don't have such an easy time trying to scare people away.

If there's anything making this stock sink, it's fear.

Good post! Couldn't agree more!

So I keep asking myself,,,

Anything change?

The answer is yes! Exposure is off the charts!

(1) Do they have a product or service?

(2) Is it a quality product or service?

(3) Is it a marketable product or service?

(4) Are there precedents, companies that provide the same kind of product or service?

(5) Do most if not all these companies trade for over a dollar a share?

(6) What differentiates my prospect from these other companies?

(7) Do they have a target demographic?

(8) Does that demographic have the means to support the product?

(9) Where does the commercial community stand, do Fortune 500 Companies want to reach the prospect's target demographic?

(10) Can the prospect deliver an effective avenue for the major corporations to reach this market?

(11) Do they have sponsors?

(12) What's the possible impact of their primary competition & will my prospect have the lead in the market?

(13) Does this prospect have management with a proven track record of not only running a company but actually bringing a company to market, making it successful & profiting from this endeavor.

And most importantly one personal question,,,

(14) Do I have the discipline, willingness & conviction to maintain a large core position.

"All we ever had to do is launch!"

5/10/2005 - From Frank


Dear Shareholders,

I would like to address all of the owners of QBID. First, things are going very well and although there are many items I cannot discuss because of confidentiality agreements, we are confident that we will make each and every one of you proud to be a shareholder. We are well beyond our estimated target with both discussions that our team is having with carriers and our internal restructure to have QTelevision fully reporting. Our network is a first of its kind and it's very important to have all its components in place to achieve complete success. The approach we've taken in being a 24X7 network will represent the GLBT community best. Our business plan has not veered and we know that this approach is more difficult than VOD, but ultimately it is the right choice. That said, all of the underlying components must continue to be in place for the large growth we are experiencing. All of the press releases we have disseminated have been to inform the investors of what we have been doing. We feel the investors should always be aware of our day to day activities and I understand that some investors have shown dismay due to some missed deadlines, but these deadlines are made to the best of our ability. Careful analysis goes into each release, but there are many variables that go into these contractual agreements and when legal departments take longer than expected or a key person involved is removed from the project, etc. this delays the negotiation. What is important for all of you to understand is in the end, all of these press releases will have come together exactly the way we intended it.

We have assembled the most sought after team in the country. Cathy Rasenberger, Carol Hinnant and Rubenstein Associates, Inc. are the "Dream Team" any new network could ask for. We have assembled this team to lead our company towards securing carriage, to continue subscriber growth in all areas and effectively hand over the responsibilities to our senior management once completed. We must show the industry that our network is viable, can produce revenue and justifies the limited bandwidth these MSO's have - our team is doing exactly that.

Our management team has internally been getting our company poised for the significant growth that will be coming shortly. We are working diligently on getting QTelevision fully reporting so both our individual investors as well as the institutions can better gauge their investment. Our company is fully funded until break even, 2008.


Again, I would like to thank the investors for sharing the same dream we've had for many years.


Frank

So where is this email? I have not seen your email nor has anyone else. The other issue is where did you get the burnrate of 2 mill$ per month for 6 years?

There was a PR in early 2004 that had come out where the expenses had been cut by 33 K per month.

There is also another PR that says production expenses where to be cut by 70% because of a purchase of a production studio to be done.

Your burn rate puts them at 144 miilion for 6 years they have spent with absolutely no income.

Pr was out that Q has 15K subscribers. That revenue put them at an income of about 60K.

If no revenue is being brought in then this company would have been long gone by now?

You need to get a reality check chucky! There is only 3 GLBT networks. LOGO presently is not doing that great. Heretv! and Q are battling for first place and Q has by far superceeded all of them on advertising and public awareness.

You seem to focus in on one very tiny point and ignore all the facts which do not support your theory. Things have changed and so should you. Lame attempts to bash on single points have no stability here.

SCENE Magazine Announces Third Issue - The Lives of Gays in the United States Military
WORCESTER, MA, (NAMC) - SCENE, the new national gay men's magazine that launched in February 2005, features a report in the July/August issue that examines the current state of the Don't Ask, Don't Tell policy that prevents homosexuals from revealing their orientation while serving in the American military. The article uncovers inconstancies from one branch of the armed services to another and even from individual to individual. SCENE also talked with military representatives in Canada and Great Britain, where gays and lesbians serve openly.


The July/August issue of SCENE also features a profile on Joe Solmonese, the newly elected president of the Human Rights Campaign (www.hrc.org).


Within just three issues SCENE's worldwide newsstand distributor, Curtis Circulation, has secured distribution of the magazine in an additional 1,535 retail outlets. This new distribution represents 79% of the nation's largest gay and lesbian newsmagazine.


"Our goal has simply been to create a magazine that reflects the people of our community as a whole throughout mainstream America," said SCENE Publisher Mark A. Lund. "Our community, advertisers and marketing partners want a magazine that talks to and is positioned to reach the entire market not just a segment. Clearly this additional distribution is reflective of that mission."


Featured on the cover of the July/August issue is Charlie David, an up and coming actor who will be starring in here!'s new television series Dante's Cove that is set to air this fall. David, who came out publicly a year ago, describes his approach to acting as a business.


In June, SCENE's web site, www.scenemag.net, exceeded 4,000,000 page views with daily views averaging over 25,000.


Advertising and marketing partners for the July/August issue include: Subaru, Gay Games VII, Q Television, The New Crown and Anchor, Outfest, Gay Atlanta, Scion, Provincetown Carnival, National Lesbian and Gay Journalists Association, Cathedral of Hope, Redball 2005, Pride Fest, Pride of Monterey County, Fort Wayne Pride, Travelocity and Aussiebum.


SCENE is published by Lund Entertainment, Inc.

Kraft's 'Gay Games' PR debacle

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Posted: June 18, 2005
1:00 a.m. Eastern


© 2005 WorldNetDaily.com
http://worldnetdaily.com/news/article.asp?ARTICLE_ID=44858

Kraft Foods, the maker of "the world's favorite foods," has found itself in the middle of a public-relations nightmare after its corporate leadership decided to sponsor the Gay Games VII, which will take place in Chicago in July. The Gay Games is an Olympic-style series of events where homosexuals from around the world compete.

But the Gay Games are not just about athletic competition. Today, I visited the American Family Association's website that illustrates some of the after-hours activities that go on during the Gay Games. These photos can be seen at this AFA website page. Please be warned – these photos contain partial nudity and lewd depictions. But I feel it is important that consumers who purchase Kraft products see what goes on at these Gay Games (billed as "athletic and cultural" events) in order to understand what types of activities Kraft Foods is actually sponsoring.

If one visits the Gay Games website, he will discover more than 70 sponsors of the event. These sponsors are almost exclusively homosexual companies, including PlanetOut.com, Q Television, Pink magazine, Girlfriends magazine, Boi magazine, ChicagoPride.com and a variety of others.

Kraft Foods, owners of Maxwell House coffee, Kool-Aid and Capri Sun drinks, Oscar Mayer meats, Jell-O snacks, Oreo cookies, Nabisco Foods and many other well-known products, has placed its reputation on the line by choosing to sponsor the Gay Games.

In an interview with PlanetOut, Kevin G. Boyer, a spokesman for Gay Games VII, said that, despite the growing protest, Kraft is "behind us 100 percent."

That might change if enough people voice their concern and opposition to Kraft's decision to sponsor the Gay Games.

Join the nationwide protest

A nationwide protest is presently erupting with scores of Americans calling and e-mailing Kraft, urging the company to withdraw its sponsorship of the Gay Games. Many individuals on my staff have already joined in the protest by sending e-mails to Kraft. They are waiting to see if the company will reply.

Critics of this protest say it is motivated by "hate," but that's far from true. That's the typical whiny mantra of homosexual-rights activists when people raise objections to their activities.

"If you disagree with us, you are hate-mongers!" Give me a break.

The fact is multiple millions of Americans who loyally purchase Kraft products have a right to express their opinion on the company's decision to link itself with the Gay Games. These people have a right to say, "If Kraft insists on sponsoring the Gay Games, I will be compelled to seek alternative brands at the grocery store."

I am urging all readers to take a moment right now to write to Kraft Foods CEO Roger K. Deromedi to express your disappointment with Kraft Foods. Contact information is below.

Please considerately express to him your desire that Kraft Foods withdraw its corporate sponsorship of Gay Games VII.

I don't think moral-minded Americans understand the potential power that we wield. I believe we can make a real impact on Kraft over the course of the next few days if everyone reading this column will take a couple of minutes to urge the company to cut off its support of Gay Games VII.

I urge everyone to take a stand for decency by participating in this national effort to defend traditional family values. In addition, I am calling on pastors across the country to urge their congregations this Sunday to get involved in this action. We must let Kraft (and other big companies that are watching this situation) know that we are holding them accountable for their actions.

Roadrunner's opinion:

QBID-a pinksheet stock with 50 billion authorized shares and an unknown O/S is why QBID is the worst investment you can make. no SEC filings or reported revenue after 6 years. $2 million dollar a month burnrate and no revenue. its just a matter of time before QBID goes bankrupt after the 50 billion A/S is topped out. gee i wonder why they wont tell investors the real O/S count, its obvious.

My opinion:

Roadrunner,

"gee", "i" wonder why you "wont" tell investors on this board your real reason for being here, "its" obvious.

Gay/Lesbian Nets Cast for Talent

By Simon Applebaum

At Q, 50 of its 73 employees are gay or lesbian. says Q CEO Frank Olsen.

LET'S NOT INCLUDE CORPORATE EMPLOYEES BUT THE GENERAL GRUNTS:

I'LL SAY 60 OF THE 73 ARE "GRUNTS."

60 EMPLOYEES TIMES 40-HRS PER WEEK EQUALS 2400 HOURS. LET'S LOW BALL IT AND SAY $15/HR FOR "GRUNT" WORK. WE'RE TALKING TELEVISION AND CALIFORNIA SO $15/HR IS LOW AVERAGE.

60 PEOPLE 40 HOURS IS 2400 HRS. PER WEEK.

2400 TIMES $15 IS $36,000 PER MONTH. AS A BUSINESS, YOU HAVE TO ADD THE TAXES THE CORPORATION PAYS AS ANOTHER 20% IS AVERAGE $7200.00.

$42,800/MONTH PAYROL.

THIS DOES NOT INCLUDE EXPENSES OF SENDING PEOPLE ACROSS THE COUNTRY, HOTELS, FOOD, ETC. AGAIN, $15/HR IS A EXTREMEMLY CONSERVATIVE LOW FIGURE.

$513,600 FOR PAYROLL PER YEAR. AND THIS DOESN'T EVEN CACULATE PAYROLL FOR THE OTHER 13 LIKE FRANK THE FRAUD, RENEE OR OTHERS.

NOW WITH $780,000/MONTH OPERATING EXPENSES WHERE IS ALL THIS MONEY COMING FROM? YOU HAVE NO SUBSCRIBER BASE AND YOU HAVE NO ADVERTISERS. NOW TO BOOT, YOUR DOING BUYBACKS AND UPGRADES SO WHERE IS THAT MONEY COMING FROM?

I'M GOING TO SELL DONUTS AT THE FLEA MARKET. I'M GOING TO PAY RENT AT THE FLEA MARKET FOR $20.00 PER DAY. THE DONUTS ARE AT MY COST, $2.00 PER DOZEN AND I SELL THEM FOR $4.00 PER DOZEN. NOW I HAVE TO SELL 10 DOZEN DONUTS JUST TO PAY THE RENT.

IT RAINS ALL DAY LONG AND I SELL 2 DOZEN DONUTS ONLY LEAVING ME WITH RENT DUE. SO WHERE DOES THAT MONEY TO PAY THE RENT COME FROM? CREDIT CARD? LOAN? OR AM I GOING TO FLOOD THE MARKET WITH SHARES TO GET SOME MORE MONEY TO STAY AFLOAT.

QBID HAS NO INCOME. ZILCH. ZERO. FRANKIE THE FRAUDSTER TOATS $2-MILLION FROM GAY GAMES BUT GUESS WHAT.

PER FRANK THE FRAUD OLSEN:

IT COST $7-MILLION TO FAIL LAUNCH IN 2000.

THEY ARE SPENDING $758,000/MONTH NOW.

WHERE IS ALL THAT MONEY COMING FROM.

The answer to that question is precisely why you're here. I only wish I had as many shares as you.

actually frank was quoted saying QBID's current burnrate was $1,500,000-$2,000,000 a month. so, QBID is spending $18-24 million a year. this isint going to go on much longer with no revenue.

You're absolutely right Captain Obvious! But if you've been paying attention to all that's happened with Q Television this year alone you must realize that the revenue is going to be coming in real soon. This company is getting so much more exposure now than it was five months ago it's crazy. People are demanding their local carriers to carry Q Television. Their demands haven't gone unnoticed, it won't be long before you will be able to subscribe to Q Television where you live. Get your shares now, while you can get them for a sweet deal, BUT...you can't have mine!! Go Q!!!

I would answer this for you but you are not worth the effort.

you know full well what we know.

Fact anyone trying to convince some to sell is trying to get cheaper shares.

Fact anyone trying to get cheaper shares is trying to convince someone to sell at a lose.
