The #ytmnd IRC channel (or "room") can be found at EFnet. It is especially hard to stay unbanned from, particularly for ex-AOL users who are not used to other people in a channel having any sort of power or regulation over their ability to converse, which is, thank god, entirely the case. There is, however, a YTMND-specific IRC server located at irc.ytmnd.com which is never up, so you can never connect and join #ytmnd there. Even if you could, it's our own server, which means we have even more control (as network administrators and ircopers instead of channel opers) and power with which to infuriate you and make you spill your bowl of cheerios.
In general, YTMND users are better off staying on the YTMND Forums, where their activity and speech is monitored and regulated and there are actual threads of conversation taking place. IRC is a dangerous place for a newcomer to the Internet, because everyone who uses it is inherently angry at themselves for not having a real life.
In order to join the #ytmnd channel, you must enable ident, otherwise you will not be able to enter. #ytmnd2 is a suitable alternative for those who for some reason cannot enable ident.
Recommended Use
Join and pay attention a maximum of three times per day, every day. Massage affected area gently until you are banned for pasting ridiculous ASCII art which does not honor the correct control character set for standard clients or have any hard spaces in it. Take with food, just be sure clean your keyboard afterwards, you slobby cheeto-eating motherfucker. If rash, vomiting, laughter, happiness, kickban, moderation, or GTFO FAGGOT persists, get the fuck off of your computer.
Weird shit
Connecting to http://irc.ytmnd.com with your browser results in a 403 Forbidden error, upon further inspection one finds the url http://sexyhornylesbians.net at the bottom of the page. Now would be a good time to start worrying.
