YTMND is also the general term used to describe any such site. YTMND is an acronym of the phrase "!"

History

When YTMND first opened, newly created YTMNDs were unmoderated and therefore a certain portion of them were highly offensive. The site also featured forums but on October 14th, 2004, Max Goldberg, without any warning, inexplicably shut down the YTMND Forums and banned the chief users -- citing tension between himself and the website's host, though they have since reopened. The site as a whole was temporarily closed in December 2004, with Goldberg forwarding the site to the original yourethemannowdog.com without notice. It was open again for a short while in January 2005, and in late March 2005 Goldberg reopened the site with new features and the creation of new YTMNDs is now moderated.
