The '''YTMND Forums''' site is one of the first mediums of communication provided for YTMND users. The forums first opened alongside YTMND in 2004. In 2005, they were closed for a short time, causing some of the members to create "off-shoot" forums -- new forums where the primary userbase is collected from some original forum site -- such as [[AlmightyLOL]]. They were permanently closed in 2006, to eventually be replaced with a custom forum application integrated with the ytmnd.com site itself. The software previously used to run the YTMND Forums was vBulletin, from its 2004 inception to its close in 2006. The new integration is a controversial one, due to anticipated rules such as the ban of [[NSFW]] topics{{fact}}. However, a [[YTMND NSFW Forums|work-unsafe version of the forums]] has been launched with vBulletin on ytmnsfw.com to ensure that users are not alienated from the community.

In the past, the YTMND Forums were regarded as a notoriously obscene place. Most of the content that could be found there consisted of disturbing pictures, racial intolerance, obscene language, browser-unfriendly post content and formatting, and clear-cut, unacceptable social behavior. This sort of activity strongly contributed to the forum closure of 2005. Many posters still regard most of this sort of content as candid, and therefore acceptable, and continue to behave as such on the new NSFW forums. The moderators and administrators of the old forums tolerated such behavior in General Discussion, to a point. It was not tolerated in any of the Help and Support forums. The NSFW forums are, with the exception of illegal content (such as child pornography), a free-range location for such obscenity.

Allow this page to be your welcoming mat to the door of knowledge that is the you're the man now dog forums. Your current stopover is necessary to present the two forums we offer, and to explain their major differences. Please bear witness to the following:

YTMND Forums
This is the main forum group associated with YTMND. Come to talk about whatever you'd like, as long as you'd find it to be acceptable at the Cleaver dinner table. We, your key players here at YTMND, your big guns, your head honchos top brass captains of online industry, will do our very best to keep this particular forum and all sub-forums thereunder as clean as a geckos eyeball. Hopefully the people who like to help will gravitate here and be overly willing to assist you with any technical questions you have. Let's everyone come together and make this the Japanese garden of our lives.
YTMNSFW Forums
Here you will generally find yourself engrossed in social incontinence. Nearly anything that's not illegal is allowed. Many young men, and some young men pretending to be young women, release their built up aggression here in the effort to feel noticed. If there could truly be an unmitigated explanation or detailing of this "community," there would just as shortly be a law against it.
