| Holy F*cking Christ @ all the sponsors! |

| This made for a great ringtone. | ||||||
| PAY ME BITCH | ||||||
| It has no transitive value, either. Technically, you owe them nothing. |
+2 | |||||
| i thought you said transvestite value at first, and was going to downvote your comment...but clearly ytmnd has MOSTLY transvestite value. |
+3 | |||||
| Clearly... What was I gonna say? Lost my train of thought... |

| I was the 100th user to fav this site. |

| I just put in $2 just so my name would go on that big *ss list. | ||||||

| wow its max! | ||||||
| zOMG gais it's teh maxz0rz | ||||||
| wait, you want us to IRL raid your hosting service? | ||||||
| -1 for glaring grammatical error in description. |
-1 | |||||
| That error being what? If you mean "its", you are incorrect. "It's" is the contraction of "it is". To suggest ownership, "its" is the correct word to use. But since you voted five...I guess you noticed your fault already. |
+2 | |||||
| Sarcasm FTW. | ||||||
| The correct grammatical error being punctuation always comes before quotations. It should be "company." not "company". | ||||||
| i give you 4 | ||||||
| meh, it's a screenshot. oh, and lol big bill, my bad. | ||||||
| Oh noes, YTMND can't pay the bills! Quick, everyone click on the google ads! |
+2 | |||||
| Hey, I work right down the street from them! Want me to head over there, kick the sh*t out of them? |

| Wow! A screenshot of e-mail. |
-2 | |||||
| i upvoted so people will see this and start clicking on ads and sh*t
word | ||||||
| max FTW | ||||||
| A sign of the times: YTMND voters don't even know a site from the owner anymore and push it off the U&C in favor of yet another "epic". Part of me hasta laugh |
-1 | |||||
| Slowing becoming e-baums like little by little. |
-3 | |||||
| "Slowing becoming e-baums like little by little" by what? becoming larger? |
+1 | |||||
| Im loving these Adventure Quest ads also max. |

| lol at sticky | ||||||
| A real company, eh? | ||||||
| lol | ||||||
| oh big bill | ||||||
| big spender | ||||||
| lol max | ||||||
| If I donate $5000, will you make me a mod? |
+2 | |||||
| gimme some sh*t to buy plz | ||||||
| IN PDF FORM!!! | ||||||
| Ouch. | ||||||
| Damn, that sucks )_: | ||||||
| IT'S A TRAP. Also lol grammar nazis, and the period goes inside the quotation marks. Like this: "company." |
+1 | |||||
| If a character was saying it, like "To our left we have the Coca-Cola company." As they're saying the complete sentence. He did it right. | ||||||
| it's generally british to have the period outside the quotation marks, unless there is some kind of exclamation needed like "You killed her!" where it will be within the quotation marks. k grammar gestapo > grammar nazis | ||||||
| maybe in america | ||||||
| no max, not in america |
-7 | |||||
| Babberwocky = ASSHAT | ||||||
| So wait, you have to pay that amount by 8-16-06? (It's the 21st) I'll donate about $500 dollars if you do. | ||||||
| drinkin out a 40 bottle livin' outdoors... | ||||||
| Gray Goose | ||||||
| Damn, 16k? Thats like a New Kia every month, What Kind of job you do? | ||||||
| He's jewish | ||||||

| lolz i love the $$ | ||||||
| oh. snap. | ||||||
| MAX = instant 5 |
-2 | |||||
| WE NEED MORE GOLD |
+6 | |||||
| OUR GOLD MINE IS RUNNING LOW |
+4 | |||||
| You require more vespene gas | ||||||
| I'll eventually get around to sponsoring a site with a large amount of money sometime. | ||||||
| max, write a book. start a religion. sue people. get money. |
+3 | |||||
| 5'd for max. And you should ban that trombone kid for defacing your site with retardedness. | ||||||
| |||||||
| All I have is a bucket of stars. | ||||||
| pbs:television::ytmnd:internet | ||||||
| So do you want us to burn a building down or something? What is thy bidding Master? |
+2 | |||||
| It's a disaster, skywalker we're after! | ||||||
| pay the man now dog. |
+14 | |||||
| Here come the interstitial "YTMND is sponsored by: *large IFRAME Flash ad* (Click here to skip to YTMND.com)" ads. TINSTAAFL. |
+5 | |||||
| hahahahohoho | ||||||
| sooo...what's the plan? |
+1 | |||||
| OK, so you racked up 16k in bandwidth charges? Does that have anything to do with the ddos attacks or is that about normal? |
+1 | |||||
| Fav'd just because max is awesome | ||||||
| If there was stuff to buy, I'd buy it. At outrageous prices. | ||||||
| quick get the shirts out and they'll make more money than snakes on a plane did... which deserved more money | ||||||
| Ha - good stuff... also, c*cks. | ||||||
| Banning Xiu and ultimacanti would probably save at least $10 (barring DDoS when--not if--they get banned). | ||||||
| wait... are you planning on putting ads on the site? | ||||||
| omg!!! | ||||||
| Stealing YTMNDs FTL |
-2 | |||||
| but I thought you had max gold | ||||||
| ...and now trombone is joining the asshat-downvote act. Add him to the two I mentioned. (sigh) | ||||||
| If you hate Max and YTMND why did you join? :| | ||||||
| lol there is no f*cking reason this site shouldn't be MAKING 10k a month with the traffic you get. Max you need to realise that ytmnd has been a free ride for alot of people over the last year and a bit, there is relatively NO ads on the site, no popups, you don't even see the ads on the ytmnd tab... I think a popup now and then would be fine, and it would definately increase revenue. If you want to make the site into a means of income that is. | ||||||
| Max, if you were to add a yearly/monthly fee for a membership it would really help the site in two ways. The first is obvious. The second would be to filter out some of these punk a$$ kids that are F a gging up YTMND. I have been less and less interested and hope this site does not continue on the sh*t trail is has been on. I would gladly pay a membership fee dear friend, and I am sure some of this communities most valued users would do the very same!
-Mr. Grim |
-2 | |||||
| hey it works for SA... |
+1 | |||||
| ^-- Hah. Ugh... click on ads... yeah. | ||||||
| also f*ck popups! | ||||||
| FTW it's Max. | ||||||
| Windex, get off this site, please | ||||||
| ^ also should not be a gold star but a Golden Jerries Kids Shamrock! | ||||||
| also c*cks | ||||||
| lol jerries more like Jerry's amirite? | ||||||
| Is this good or bad? | ||||||
| max your such a king, you think its funny but your stuff isn't
gay......instead your head is stuck in a vagina filled with flowers.
come down from your throne and start adding GOLD YTMND accounts you gentleman...then I wont have to hear you tell us nobles how you can't spare 15k from your fortune, and its up to us to click those google ads, you jewish man god of verility, make those ytmnd t-shirts and punch the keys for god's sake, your updates keep rolling out like your a clown in a candy factory. bbs, k | ||||||
| Money makes the world go round, wether you love it or not. | ||||||
| "Excuse me, but this ytmnd was stolen from me. Please cite me in and I will
give you a 5." guy is gay... | ||||||
| Ah, much better. Here's the extra star your site now deserves. | ||||||
| Of course, the period is still placed after the end quote, but I'll let that slide. | ||||||
| Max....latin is a dead language...love 4ever | ||||||
| Boot any user that has made no site or only really sh*tty sits, that should lighten any load quite a bit. | ||||||
| "If there was stuff to buy, I'd buy it. At outrageous prices." QFT. sorry for looking at too many sites this month, max :( | ||||||
| Please God tell me windex got his arse banned for that comment. That alone would make an 11k bill worth it. | ||||||
| I implore thee, delete ye the douchebags that claim thievery. | ||||||
| QUICK, SOMEONE CALL TEKNORAT. | ||||||
| well.... that sucks. | ||||||
| Oh f*ck me. | ||||||
| You are an incredibly sensitive man, who inspires Joy-Joy feelings in all those around you. | ||||||
| windex is no longer with us | ||||||
| LOL windex was deleted | ||||||
| All sites that have a 1.5 or below rating should be deleted! | ||||||
| Chemistry Calisthenics | ||||||
| Swantz has a good idea but then downvoters would have a holiday. Why cant people learn there are 5 total vote possibilities, not just 2 | ||||||
| Without capitalism... YTMND would not exist for your pleasure. Give Max some money for what he has brought you. | ||||||
| wtf no way lol | ||||||
| We aren't a company? WE PRODUCE AND EXPORT ENDLESS AMOUNTS OF HUMOR AND IT ISN'T EVEN ENOUGH TO PAY THE F*CKING BILLS?! Hurry up with those shirts, and we need more advertising! | ||||||
| |||||||
| God damn... that is a huge amount to pay. Every year? And still people get mad when you want to change something? That is f*cked. People have no right to give you any disrespect when you pay 16 grand so they can make a few websites... |
+1 | |||||
| lol, 5@max. | ||||||
| i must 5 this. you're max goldberg. by 5ing you maybe i'll gain instant "syncan". status. actually i just liked the music. | ||||||
| you need to fill your tubes max.. | ||||||
| oh burn... huge points for blackalicious though | ||||||
| ...lol @ the "where is teknorat" comment. | ||||||
| max.. start by opening the ytmnd store!!! t-sh*ts, mugs, stationary.. bastardize ytmnd for a profit!!!! |
+1 | |||||
| Nice, I thought you were talking about moneyhat there for a second too XD | ||||||
| whoops... i meant t-shirts. not t-sh*ts. :/ | ||||||
| "QUICK, SOMEONE CALL TEKNORAT." |
+1 | |||||
| Everybody, click on a google ad!!! :o | ||||||
| pay in monopoly money | ||||||
| Click the ads for God's sake! That is all. | ||||||
| Ouch... mabe It'll soon be better to buy your own Servers and pay for a gigabit connection. | ||||||
| =O | ||||||
| If you pay for a gigabit connection... I could host all of YTMND with my new X6800 Conroe computer, my X2 4400 and 700Gb of RAID 1 and 0 storage space. | ||||||
| Hey Max, instead of pay that why not take YTMND down, and give that 16K to me? It'd be for a better cause. |
-1 | |||||
| ouch | ||||||
| guys dont click on ads, it doesn't help, if it doesn't convert it's worthless. the idea is that im going to have to start focusing less on adding new features and more on making money. |

| LOL REPLYING TO A MAX COMMENT |
+7 | |||||
| Max, 2 years and 3 days later, I find it funny that you are failing at this objective. |
+1 | |||||
| 3 years and 4 days later. | ||||||
| Stolen from 4Chan |
-1 | |||||
| Maybe if your ads weren't selling Police scolarships to a bunch of 14 year olds. |
+4 | |||||
| Your AdSense totals make mine look like a pile of crap...however I'd rather not spend that much in hosting. | ||||||
| I'm totally all for switching to a paid subscriber system. Do something like if someone has over ten sites with a 3.0 rating, it's obvious the user is an established, good user and no a damn downvoter... Give them a free year and then charge like $50 for a year ($4.16 a month, that's like, a Pinto a month) |
-2 | |||||
| care post. | ||||||
| http://fhew.ytmnd.com | ||||||
| lol | ||||||
| I suggest selling all the content to eBaums World so it takes the pain out of them stealing it from you. Or you could find other soruces of revenue; TLA isn't that bad because they aren't big bulky flash ads where you have to click some damn button to win a free ringtone that I've never gotten. They pay me pretty well for the low traffic sites I have. | ||||||
| good lord | ||||||
| 5 for max | ||||||
| YTMND needs merchandise, if you made 10 different YTMND shirts i'd buy 20 of them. |
+2 | |||||
| sorry max | ||||||
| OMG MAX | ||||||
| hackman kills a baby! | ||||||
| 16k, eh? Reminds me of the guy who had a $1,000,000 electric bill. | ||||||
| omg max makes a ytmnd! its so funny and good lOLOLOL | ||||||
| Max, if you want someone to do some graphic design work for some products, I'm your man. I work quick, and produce quality goods. | ||||||
| -_^ | ||||||
| Sh*t Max, put in more ads! As long as it's not the crowded debauchery of Ebaums we all understand the need to recoup some expenses... also c*cks | ||||||
| suck a sack of pureed sh*t | ||||||
| YTMND INC.? Like Kids Inc., also c*cks. | ||||||
| This YTMND isn't even that good but I guess since your max it's pretty much a auto five. | ||||||
| I F*CKED MAX | ||||||
| I saw 69, omglolwtfzor. | ||||||
| well the shirts, and possibly the blue ball boxers, should make a nice amount of money | ||||||
| Does this include lawyer fees for fighting that whole "church of scientology" thing? | ||||||
| Do what you gotta do as far as "focusing...more on making money," max. I'm sure you get huge amounts of traffic, so exploit it. Just try not to bombard us with popups or cram ads on top of YTMND sites, please. | ||||||
| eBaum will steal this, call it there own, and pay the bill | ||||||
| hahahhahahahhahahahhahaha | ||||||
| ...wow... that's a whole lot of money... how are you gonna pay that? Or are you? | ||||||
| UMMM...... WHAT?!?!?!?! cant downvote the guy who made yourethemannowdog. | ||||||
| Thundergod and mrgrim have forgotten their roots. Ill click more ads of course, but how did the site manage to get a bill that big? | ||||||
| OH SH*T DIVIDE MY ZERO! | ||||||
| Let me get this straight. You owe 16 f*cking grand? How!? | ||||||
| Maybe some interviews? your site does get alot of traffic. Appear on g4 or something? maybe not. its nice not knowing what you look like or who you are. Youre kinda like santa claus, except more vague. |
+1 | |||||
| Max's identity shall forever remain a secret... you know except for the part how we know his last name. | ||||||
| "eBaum will steal this, call it there own, and pay the bill" lol |
+2 | |||||
| Nothing justifies screwing with YTMND...Not Even Blackalicious Music | ||||||
| Well, we make the sites so can we have desks and cubicles? | ||||||
| sell the site to news CORP for 500 baZILLIO dollars | ||||||
| God, the song is awesome. But yeah, maybe the store will improve the situation. | ||||||
| 54th... How much bandwidth does ytmnd.com push? | ||||||
| ATE | ||||||
| 5 | ||||||
| No, you can't use any of my jewgold, sorry. But once I'm a famous game programmer I plan on sneaking YTMND-related easter eggs into all the games I work on, and THEN I can actually contribute to the site :) | ||||||
| lol 16 g | ||||||
| oh, my god. | ||||||
| Seriously, I just checked and YTMND gets more traffic than Homestar Runner, and their store gets enough cash to support the creators and the site. Once the store opens it should really help things out. | ||||||
| Let's not forget that July had a huge spike in traffic thanks to the Zidane fad. However, the monthly bills are still astronomically high. Roll out the paid users feature! $5 - $10 | ||||||
| LOL Max deleted my account when I made that comment. |
+1 | |||||
| Oh and just an idea: Make the YTMND redesign a Beta page for paid users as an added perk before it debuts for everyone. | ||||||
| Celebrate my brothers! Xiu has ben deleted! | ||||||
| |||||||
| sub systems... it worked for SA forums dude... quite a conundrum | ||||||
| what | ||||||
| Also c*cks, Max. Also c*cks. | ||||||
| I love you, Max. | ||||||
| Edwardpenis - I have not forgotten my roots, I am just trying to think about our friend Max. You know, the guy who made the site. The guy who kinda owes the $16 f*cking thousand dollars. I would gladly pay $5 a month to help out. Max, you have been too nice in the past. Get someone to make a program that auto deletes all sites under a 3 rating. That should free up countless amounts of bandwidth, and drop your bill by more than 50% I am sure of it. Trust me.
-Mr. Grim | ||||||
| Quick! We all must raid scientology main headquarters for the money. Bring any weapons you can. | ||||||
| bandwidth consumed by too many f*ggy short films. | ||||||
| Year membership for $30 and it comes with a YTMND shirt maybe? | ||||||
| BTW, if we go through and delete our sh*tty sites will that really help, I got plenty of them, Ill do my part. :) | ||||||
| Take a note from SomethingAwful, offer paid memberships, or offer a premium member category with a recurring fee. | ||||||
| i'm for deleting all sites with ratings lower than 2. | ||||||
| we have to... do something... what else am i supposed to do on my free time? | ||||||
| Another thought just came to mind if you want to keep the userbase completely free with no fees. What happened to that Adbrite stuff? Couldn't you easily setup a pay per link option with that on the YTMND front page? | ||||||
| I PM'ed you with bandwidth conservation tips but you'll probably never read it. If you can find a tier 1 ISP to host you, they may be able to do it for free (since they have their own backbone connection and peering agreement, bandwidth doesn't cost them anything). | ||||||
| NEVER! | ||||||
| The donations cover the rest | ||||||
| OMGZORZ Max made a Sit3!!1 5'd |
-1 | |||||
| GET FREE BOXES
http://igotfreeboxes.ytmnd.com/ | ||||||
| i had a feeling of this max would make another ytmnd soon | ||||||
| wait what? | ||||||
| i'd take a free account to view, and a 'gold' account to vote: my votes aren't worth sh*t anyway | ||||||
| Heh, wow expensive. | ||||||
| you fail, please try again ^_^ |
-1 | |||||
| This comment was made two years ago. | ||||||
| Oh wait, so was this site. | ||||||
| ^ you can ban him now | ||||||
| Impressive.
Also, you can ban sexymofo now ^^^^ | ||||||
| holy crap
ps ban sexymofo | ||||||
| Also, more Tshirts. Seriously. You can get them made for 2 bucks apiece, and I bet you could sell at least 300, which would net you a few k. | ||||||
| Start selling T-Shirts again...
Put some fads on em (citing the authors) and go ballistic. I'd kill for a KHAAAAAAAN T-Shirt or a classic Connery. | ||||||
| I see nothing actually wrong with selling t-shirts and other stuff. | ||||||
| I'd buy a POLAND ytmnd t-shirt. =) | ||||||
| No you wouldn't! |
+1 | |||||
| ban sexymofo please | ||||||
| now is a great time for T Shirts | ||||||
| I think I sjpeak for everyone when I say 'merchandising' | ||||||
| 5'd becuase it was made by max | ||||||
| looks like it's time to sell out! | ||||||
| If the guys who make sites here are considered artists now, Max needs to apply for a grant from the NEA or something. | ||||||
| Sh*t man, that's a lot. If you open up a store, I'd certainly buy several shirts. Always wanted one, too... Maybe have upvoter/downvoter shirts? | ||||||
