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.

great, now there's only 5 slots for 'recently created' and it's no longer one of the first things viewed; so, this means more sh*t is going to make it's way into the front page. Second, half of the YTMNDs i've seen in the 'Holiday' section have absolutely nothing to do with the holidays.
YTMND is cluttered with too many NARVs to expect them to be honest in site creation. The new front page blows horsedick, but I like the new creator.
"ytmnsfw was created soley for me to keep ridin spinnaz from being deleted. (this is known as the legendary ridin spinnaz rule, where i have to come up with new methods in which i can forbid tons of stupid sh*t on the site without taking away the creative genius behind such works as ridin spinnaz.)" - goddamn it max then why isnt it in the Hall of Fame. you know it should be.

I've been hounding wingerding for weeks, and posted several times on these NEWS comments in the past. And since I have a sour history with alts I feel a duty to fight them now. Sometimes after catching somebody it is better to explain to them why they SHOULDN'T use alts, and I can name more than one user who was caught and stopped using them without having to refer them to a higher authority. But wingerding, he's just an incredible *ssh*le.
Congratulations! You just helped to make the internet a little bit worse. Your new YTMND has been published and is now available here:http://_____.ytmnd.com You have up to 72 hours from this moment to make changes to your site with no penalties. After 72 hours, changing the image or sound will cause your views and votes to reset. Click here to go back to your profile.
Damn... I've been coming to this site for about 3 years now. I've been looking at sites for a few years now. Then all of a sudden I figured out how to host images as pages (thnx photobucket and not you). After that, I... well, I didn't do anything. Because it started just now. I guess i won't do anything on this site... It hurts... GG guys. Out.
nutnics, if you downvote dogsh*t, it'll only be replaced by more dogsh*t. Something has to fill U&C, and if there's nothing but garbage on the site at the moment, there's not much you can really do, is there? I still say the solution is raising the vote cap on U&C to 500, so there's less turnover and genuinely good sites stick there longer.
Let's face it, everyone sucks at ytmnd at first. Sure some of you people delete your old stuff and pretend like it never happened, whereas I keep my old sites around like a badge of honor. I kind of like being reminded of how sh*tty my sites used to be. It makes my mediocre recent sites look better by comparison.

"I'd like to take bets: is lilgeorgiapeach81 for real, or a character like Dr-L337? I
can't tell." - my gut says its a subversive "nice" character, which in the troll world is a whole lot more creative then repeating the exact same comment on every site or telling everyone to f*ck themselves in all caps.
