Greetings,
Now I know it's been a while since you've heard from me, but don't let that fool you, I've been busy!
Read more for info on all the new junk I've added.
New Site Creator/Editor
I've been working on this for a while and am pretty tired of it, as such it hasn't received a lot of testing, so I expect it to be pretty buggy for a few days. If you encounter reproducible errors, post here or send me a PM.
I've also added a "Holiday YTMNDs" content box, if your site has a keyword like: christmas, kwanza[a], ha[n]nukah, chan[n]ukah, etc, it will be in the running for this box. As always, keyword abuse is grounds for site deletion, so don't try and cheat.
I am also working out a new system for limiting edit changes, you can read about it here and discuss it here.

PCF wins the spam wars with 2 truly amazing rhymes but Sylvester gets an honorable mention for his million penis spam. To greeny: No, I didn't listen long enough for the giraffe part... but thanks for polluting this site with more giraffes. There was a giraffe humping site the other day and I was quite pleased. What's the use of having ytmnsfw.com if you don't have some giraffe penis on there? The world is now a better place.

I will not, repeat, WILL NOT make these sites- "Miss Cleo's Psychic Predictions: Press ESC to Stop", "Snuffx Russian Roulette: Press ESC to Stop", "Mystery Date!: Press ESC to Stop!", "Wheel of Fish: Press ESC to Stop", "What's my Favorite Color?: Press ESC to Stop", or the "Ayn Random Free-Market Witticism Generator: Press ESC to Stop". You know we'll be inundated by these kind of sites soon, so I won't make them. I promise.
^ Its the way you made the mp3, and if you are utilizing the preloader, it will speed it up. This happened to me when dctownes made my mp3 mix. Whatever you guys are using to make you music, It doesnt ucking work right once preloader is applied. Try another music editing program or the way you export the audio, (make an aiff file, 16/44.1) then convert the aiff to mp3 using itunes or anything else you PC ags.
Anybody who likes "How To Prank a Telemarketer" on the theory that it brings new traffic to YTMND better not downvote this site if they wish to come off as coherent should support allowing the uploading of hardcore porn to YTMND, since the presence of such will undoubtedly bring new traffic to YTMND and give the site greater exposure.
OK that made no sense. What I meant to say was that anybody who likes "How To Prank a Telemarketer" on the theory that it brings new traffic to YTMND should support allowing the uploading of hardcore porn to YTMND, since the presence of such will undoubtedly bring new traffic to YTMND and give the site greater exposure.

You people post page after page of comments asking for Max to do stuff. When has Max done anything besides put the Telemarketer site into the HOF, something everyone asked him NOT to do. Let's face it, YTMND is running on autopilot. There is very little moderation of newly created sites, alt accounts are rampant, and people can generally do whatever they want without consequence. The front page is a mess full of self-defeating categories full of redundant sites.
Excellent sites get 300 views and then disappear while stupid sh*t with a eye-grabbing NSFW title ends up on the Most Viewed List. Sites on the Sponsored list ends up on the Most Voted list regardless of the quality of the sites. Surely there is a better system than this. I realize Max is busy doing the coding...and since he rarely makes ytmnds he could probably use someone else's input who does make sites. Hell even this comments page has reduced a few guys critiquing each other's works.
"Excellent sites get 300 views and then disappear while stupid sh*t with a eye-grabbing NSFW title ends up on the Most Viewed List." That's the truth. The top five viewed today (excluding the site that shall not be named) are all nsfw, including my latest, which is only nsfw because of language, but yet is still getting tons of views because the prepubescents have been trained to equate nsfw with nudity/porn. I hate to say it, but I liked it better when nsfw had its own site.
haha...that's funny about Kiltron. I ran into him a few weeks ago when I responded to every one of his Mystery Band sites and he freaked out, and PM'd me, calling me a troll and pretending to be a mod who'd have me deleted. I then asked him why, if I were just a troll, I'd have joined six months before him, had fifty some odd sites, and had a rather normal vote spread. He backed down and now we go for ice cream and pick flowers and one of us is gonna be the first ghey president, damn it.
Apparently people think that the Garden of Eden is historical even though there is no historical evidence that even suggests that it is true. I don't know how you people categorize what is historical and what isn't, but I thought it was based on the historical evidence that suggests that it is true and not how strongly your faith in an archaic religion is. People are so f*cking dumb it's unbelievable. And, by the idiots' logic, the Greek gods exist because Homer said so. What a joke.
These updates f*cking suck! 1. New sites get practically zero views 2. When trying to edit a site so people get the joke in it's squirt of public view, it hangs like a sexymofo 3. After deleting a site and trying to create a new one, you get "You cannot edit a site you did not create". I DON'T WANT to edit a site, I want to create you bastards!
