why was i brought into this? i never talk about flameman or interact with him (her?) and when did i ever say flameman is umfuld? if anything, the fact that i was mentioned probably suggests whose account this is. if i ever expressed suspicion about this account being an umfuld alt, i probably did it in private to one of about 3 users.

I think I read most of the comments in this journal post twice. I feel very concerned about the situation that is creating here. I sense so much hate, whether it is staged or not. I don't want to talk about me, but I have to tell you this: I'm quite a sensitive person and I visit this site maybe 20 times a day. I like to see what people share, I like the funny stuff, but when I look harder I read the comments, I see downvotes driven by pure hate, jealousy or even for no reason at all (dare I say "just for fun".) And since the site is up again the negativity is palpable more than ever. I'm even experiencing it firsthand, thanks to a user who doesn't act like his/her blood is flowing to his/her brain. As Max said in a post in 2007 (I'm paraphrasing,) freedom of speech is ok, but when the shit hits the fan you have to spend a lot of time cleaning the fan. And a soapy sponge is not enough.<br />I like to imagine this site as a place where you have fun, reflect and discuss about what people feel important to share. Do we really have to fight against each other, for things which don't even concern our role in this community? Do we have to scream and offend, saying the obvious most of the time? Do we have to judge, condemn and bash just because we think we have a right to say whatever we want?<br />I live in a place where school books used to be regulated by the "government" and still there's a lot to complain about openness. Stephen Colbert often jokingly says "Freedom isn't free." Maybe he's right, if you think about it. We have been given a chance to express ourselves, by a sole person. Let's not spoil this opportunity, we cannot take anything for granted. For the sake of this community, behave yourself. All of us. Me too.

That wouldn't be finger pointing at all. I pointed out this problem a few comments up:<br />http://ytmnd.com/news/109/c59028<br />http://ytmnd.com/news/109/c59038<br /><br />It's just that I personally don't like to name names. But I don't condemn it, everyone has a right to speak, reasonably or not. It's up to us to judge if something deserves to be considered.<br />When I talked about improving the general mood I must have been too generic. You can improve the mood of the community indirectly: pointing out the trolling is a very good start. But I must remind what we already know: that every reference to trolls makes the trolls stronger, and there's no way to get rid of them if not with some extreme measures, which don't necessarily need to be permanent. I believe this site is now a machine that has a broken gear; unfortunately we, as simple users, can't replace it.<br />Some comments ago I suggested the community should unite and work together and stop making wars. But some users told me that it seems impossible, because there are so many differences, even about whether noise sites are good or not (and that should be a no-brainer, in my opinion.)

Why do you talk about me as if I've had a real conversation with you? Also, this says more about the users who are willing to click a ytmnd link on reddit than it does about the userbase of the reddit as a whole, or any other community that could be considered respectable and would consider joining if ytmnd wasn't the alcoholics anonymous of the internet.

why would you not respond to me because this is not my main account? what does that have to do with anything? and why are you explaining how you vote? nobody asked.<br /><br />but ok, i guess i have to log into my main account to be taken seriously, because if you respond to me then you might be talking to a user you're not supposed to like. this is because ytmnd is a popularity contest on the gayest social network on the internet.

Max, I thought you were going to keep the Minecraft server up, but from what you said I will lose the opportunity to meet people there, people who even use this website. For example, yesterday I was very excited when I found out that a YTMND user was in the world. I wanted to talk to him and play with him a little bit. I'm new at Minecraft so everything about it looks new and beautiful, especially the fact that I can interact with real people. Of course, there's always the real world but it's my choice if I want to go and play in a virtual world. Besides, I'm most probably the only Italian active user here and I bet most of you live in the States, in any case far from that shithole that is Italy, and I wanted to see what is like to play with one of you, without having my words dismissed in an indistinguishable cloud of forced unfunny jokes and pitiful self promotion. I think it's acceptable here to have this behaviour, we can all be characters here. But in Minecraft, how much does a fake and shady "personality" last? In the 3D world you are more human than in a webpage.<br />The impending closure of that Minecraft server will make me reflect about the importance of the real world not based on a computer. There's no switch off for the Universe.

This place is so schizophrenic, i have no idea who and what is real anymore here when it comes to user names. Half me of thinks this is just gr33n talking to himself. I dunno. Either way. 5.

finally, some examples. but pretty much just assertions backing up other assertions.<br /><br />I don't like everything uncircumcised does, I vote high when he shows skill or good use of humor. I only know of one site where he used a stolen asset which I happened to upvote - that was where he had some alternative batman gif.<br /><br />Not knowing about a site feature that involves a few clicks to get to does not mean one is dumb, easily explainable as being an infrequent user or just never finding a real need for a certain feature. I never really saw the need to do it before. There was only once or twice I have ever regretted voting.<br /><br />My idiotic statements on Ayn Rand and selfishness? What are you talking about? Did I misrepresent her views? Do you have something to back up this statement?

here's a sad story. i was talking my my friend about ytmnd. by the way, this person is the guy who showed me ytmnd for the first time. anyway, i was telling him about how dead it is and how there is now a very small user base. he replied "that's awesome!" to which i was perplexed. i asked him why he thought that was so great, and he explained "well, if there's such a small circle of people making content, then there should be a lot less dumb fad crap and much more fine tuned, quality content. i mean, doesn't a small circle of users make for some sick collaborations? i'm excited to see where that goes. besides, max probably likes it better that way." i told him he was mistaken, he should not be excited for ytmnd's future and yes, max probably does like it better that way.<br /><br />this is a great site and all, but why are we continuing to make star trek shit and sites about ytmnd?

Predictability is one of your few mottos. And I don't mean it like "Craig Ferguson is predictable", because he is an established comedian. You are not. I can even predict the content of the replies to this message: one of you, most probably the first, will downvote this comment and write "didn't read"; another one will make a half-witty statement about how I'm playing their game just by talking about them; another one will reply to the first reply with at least two accounts, with links to sites about the user who made the first reply; then the conversation would fall into a confusing mix of unoriginal offensive remarks. I could say more but it's not worth it.<br /><br />If I had to see a change in your pattern, I wouldn't believe it. You are like a dead rotten body who doesn't want to realize it's dead. So it keeps doing the same things over and over. Even the supposedly most dangerous member of your band of futility fails to impress, the only unusual feature be exploiting a bug in the site code. And with a very little creative outcome. You try to make a 4chan-esque repetition fit into a structure that is not intended, not even suitable for such actions. You keep on doing it, since 2006 at least, and you still don't understand it. I suppose you make this for your own enjoyment, but why doing it here? It's like riding a bike with square wheels.<br /><br />YTMND is a flexible community, but not much. You are trying to break it, but the more you bend it, the more it becomes stiff, and eventually it will push you out as it comes back to its original shape.

actually i remember very little of any of that. also, you really don't get it. its so easy to just fool around and get rises out of people like you. kind of like when you told my adenacrawl account about how i was an "elite user" because i used media that is not generally posted on ytmnd and because i edited you gifs. i didn;t even pm you. you pmed me. you liked my sites when you thought it was not me.<br /><br />also, you apparently dont get the joke about how i talk about how i'm a hot drug dealer who sleeps with tons of women. you dont get it it and never do unless someone explains it to you (embarrasses you)

you should have titled it "look at this 1/4-assed attempt at a 'look at that hat' demented clone."<br /><br />it's not even animated. the site maker could have found some little creative way to make it interesting. yet the site maker did not. the site maker gets the prize for hangyest foreskin on a tiny fatman's blue-from-the-cold cock. it is black at the tip and is littered with scars and rock-hard pimples. it has never been inside a mouth. it has penetrated one pussy and it came before it could pull back from the first thrust.<br /><br />i would have made "look at that cock," with a chubby boy unsheathing and re-sheathing his foreskin as he directly faces the camera. i might slow down the footage. i might use that teenage-existential-crisis song from American Beauty, speeding it up a touch, throwing in some severe static, rendering the song nearly unidentifiable. i might narrate with my own voice and i'd see how fast i can make myself talk, eventually losing control into free form rambling, then gibberish, then the noise i make when i stand in the shower and cum with four fingers in my ass. the whole thing would be so manic as to instantly induce anxiety attacks in all you homophobic pieces of uncultured precums.<br /><br />[i]YOU CAN BET YOUR SWEET-AS-CORN-POOP TORTURED NIPPLES ON THIS[/i]<br /><br />this site maker is lucky to have received a three star vote from [b]ME[/b],<br /><br />[b]ME[/b] the most intelligent user left on YTMND<br />[b]ME[/b] the funniest user left on YTMND<br />[b]ME[/b] the best looking person any of you will ever interact with, on and off the internet<br />[b]ME[/b] a shining, solid silver railroad spike in a bucket of broken, rusty nails<br />[b]ME[/b] a friend who will never have you<br />[b]ME[/b] a person your parents, nay, your grandparents look up to<br />[b]ME[/b] lickitwellhiem<br /><br />[i]me[/i]<br />[i]lickitwellhiem[/i]

You didn't understand what we were talking about then and you still don't seem to. You have no reason to apologize though.<br /><br />I was talking about how IE8 doesn't support access control headers (as described https://developer.mozilla.org/en/HTTP_access_control), but every other modern browser does (including IE9), this has nothing to do with the server-side user authentication you seem to be talking about.

one user posting a series of sites (only [b]5[/b] so far...) is not a fad.<br />not at all.<br />not by any sense of the term "fad."<br />if you were to buy 3 more pink and purple polka dot shirts and decided to wear them all 5 days of your 8th grade school week, nobody would ever look back and talk about that ugly, tasteless fad.<br />nobody would do that because it was not a fad.<br />it was just one of many awful peaks found scattered throughout your lifetime, products of your social/creative retardation.<br />why are all you people so desperate to establish shitty fads? it's funny to watch you all fail at group think. you don't know how to think and coordinate anything and it's funny.

To Whom It Concerns (/still gives a shit in this day and age):<br /><br />1. The word "whom," although ostensibly the objective form of "who," should really be reserved for butlers alone.<br />B. My last ATE sites are currently my lowest rated sites. I doubt this is an accurate reflection of my site-making and more likely the result of having accidentally offended some sensitive user with too much time/alts on their hands.<br />%. Whereas I don't make sites for ratings, I've no need to talk to uninterested parties.<br />Four. See ya.

i'm only voting 5 because i always automatically vote 5 on a "self-titled" site..<br /><br />for example:<br />pilleater.ytmnd.com<br /><br />that site represents you as a ytmnd user - this is who you are, like i am a manifestation of Dr.Mario.<br />...as for the message your trying to push, i'm not falling for it simply that i do not believe in guilt. <br />there will always be people enjoying violence, it's in history, it's normal. sure blacks were lynch, and today jews kill palestinians because they hate them, while we hypocritically feel guilt for the holocaust which then pushes the ADL to support israel, which supports destroying palestine. i'm pretty sure israelis are having a wonderful time blowing up children parks in gaza, and killing innocent film directors (james miller). people say holocaust deniers are anti-semitic, there only talking about the fringe kind so you can keep supporting israel. to deny the holocaust is to break the taboo which the current war in the middle east feeds off of. i never think about the holocaust because i don't believe in guilt. are you taking this whole moonman to an extreme? do you believe in "utopia" and left-wing ideas? do you want to give more than what you have? are you only concern with race because it is something a minority can have and you cannot because you feel you are white? <br /><br />...this is a humor site. cheer up.

[b]MIK3M'S COMPREHENSIVE EXPLANATION OF WHY MY SITES ARE GOOD AND DARTHWANGS ARE NOT[/b]<br /><br />Subject: DarthWang<br />Status: Making cookie cutter sites with little to no originality.<br /><br />Some classic examples include<br />[i]- any site he has ever made<br />- any site he has ever made<br />- any site he has ever made[/i]<br /><br />As we can see in these fine exampled, DarthWang takes one fad, or one existing [b]YTMND[/b], and simply inserts another.<br /><br />You see, [i]DarthWang[/i] plays with [b]Lincoln Logs[/b], whereas I play with Legos. He uses the same preexisting single colored boring pieces, and takes one how-to-build instruction manual, BUT WAIT, he changes one of the steps, to make it just [i]THAT[/i] much different.<br /><br />[i]Ooooohhhhhhh who gives a shit[/i]<br /><br />But me, hold on, hold the fucking phone, we got a [i]caller on the line here.[/i]<br /><br />[i]I do my own fucking thing.[/i]<br /><br />Argue as you may choose to, that I make shit, but I make my [i]own shit[/i].<br /><br />[b]Here is where you would argue that the songs I use in my mashups I didn't make, and the images I didn't draw myself, or I wasn't actually samtron recording a video of myself talking about earthbound.[/b]<br /><br />And I would argue that is the premise of [b]YTMND[/b], to use other assets to create new things.<br /><br />[i]DarthWangs[/i] problem is that he doesn't just [i]steal jokes and images[/i], he has to steal their context.<br /><br />Yes, when he creates something he can't even figure out how to put two and two together in an original way, he has to take a piece from the puzzle and just put another piece in.<br /><br />[i]Wow! It's like that other joke, but, like, slightly different![/i] ~ 2012 shitty users ruining the front page<br /><br />[i]My sites are better.[/i]<br /><br />I make my own shit.<br /><br />[b]Get a job.[/b]<br /><br />[i]Stop having your 16 year old moonman fans make you feel like you're popular.[/i]<br /><br />[u]And, most importantly:[/u]<br /><br />[b]Go 5 my sites.[/b]

The reason we have survived this long is because we have not abandoned this site. The reason users are noticing a large amount of Moon Man sites is do the simple fact that less and less non-Crew YTMND users are making sites. The fact of the matter is that while many users have come and gone from this site, treating the site itself as some sort of "fad", we, the Moon Crew, have stayed. We have existed during YTMND's golden age and will we continue to exist on YTMND despite its current decrease in traffic and fame.<br /><br />Every once in awhile an ancient dinosaur user, such as yourself mik3m, decides to check up on that YTMND site they used to visit in their younger days and complain about its current state. Of course, they often gloss over the fact that it was they who left the site, and not the site that left them. They come here, make a few sites that "expose" facts that every current user already knows, and try to present themselves as some sort of enlightened liberator that will change everything. However, that will not happen. The existence of the Moon Crew forums has not only been common knowledge on YTMND, it has also been advertised by the Moon Crew itself.<br /><br />I can agree with you on the fact the guestbook YTMND was awful. It seems many users only come here to attempt to draw attention to themselves, and when their shitty sites are not flooded with 5's they feel bad and leave. However, other than the guestbook part this entire YTMND of yours was just one big rant by you talking about how types of sites you do not like should not be allowed. YTMND does not revolve around you, mik3m.

[i]oh i see! now your playing dumb! if someone loves pixel art, then there has to be some deep rooted love for (japanese) rpg games. to act like it was a strange question is avoiding true intentions, you are trying to believe if rpgs never existed, conforming yourself as an average (cool?) person. this is a prejudice and escapist way of thinking. many users on ytmnd talk about video games and upvote sites because of video game references. to simply made this site as 'art' is a joke upside-down.[/i]

If YTMND wants to get better, it needs moderation. Full stop. There are a few things that could be tried:<br /><br />1. [b]Get some fucking moderators.[/b] There are some good people that actually waste their free time here and would be fine curators of the site. I know you said not to ask about moderators, max, but you know what? I'm asking. This place needs them. Sorry, but you can't just wish away trolls. <br /><br />[i]max, you've talked about making this site "self-moderated" but I think it would actually be easier on you to delegate the responsibility to others. If you still have some ambition to implement self-regulating mechanics on this site:[/i]<br /><br />2. Add an algorithm to the voting system so that users who tend to "5" or "1" everything gets their votes "down-weighted" over time. Your 10,000th "1" vote isn't as much of a downvote as the first. It wouldn't just be a simple count of "number of 1-votes"; it would compare number of 1-votes to number of total votes and analyze the user's vote spread to determine if someone is a "downvoter" or "upvoter" or someone that only votes "1" or "5". <br /><br /><br />3. Restrict the voting privileges of new users. Voting should be more of an earned privilege, and less of a lazy entitlement. If new accounts couldn't vote, it would also remove the incentive to create alt accounts.<br /><br />4. New users can be "fast-tracked" to voting privileges by contributing to the site. The best way would be to have a new user "vouched" by an older user, but you could also set up something that analyzed a user's sites and comments and measured it against some criterion (maybe something like how Featured Users worked). Moderators could also decide to promote an account.
