The '''YTMND parasite''' '''( homo psoriasis )''' is said to be the very worst of all YTMND epidemics. This parasite feeds on pre-existing YTMNDs and memes, and resubmits or rehashes them either without any meaningful alteration.

The '''YTMND parasite''' ''(thefticus ripoffisis)'' is said to be the very worst of all YTMND epidemics. The parasite feeds on pre-existing YTMNDs and resubmits them without any alteration (save for removing text, or using different sound) as sites of their own making. Parasites believe that stealing from other YTMND users is an acceptable action. Parasites rarely offer sound or image origins since they usually steal it from other YTMNDs; revealing the origin would result in their exposure.

The two types of parasites are both, more often than not, sycophantic. They are self-hating users that will do anything to feel good about themselves.

==Types of Parasites==

1.The "Thief" Parasite
+
−
 
+
−
This is a Parasite that relies mainly on stealing from other sites and is often in the NARV or TROLL category. Though this type is often less psychotic, revenge voting rates among them is still rather high.

2.The "Editor" Parasite

+
−
The "Editor" Parasites are the more efficient of the two. They are easily able to yoke NARVS and other Parasites to spread their eggs. These parasites are far more willing to spend time editing material to meet these needs and are even able to coordinate with others. Their sites rely on gloss as gimmick but are ultimately unfunny rehash that is repulsive to the intelligent individual.

There is no known cure from Parasites. All YTMND users are free reign to this plague. The only defense is to label the site a "Parasite" if it is known to be stolen from another submission or contains lots of glossy editing but is ultimately vapid. For the latter, labeling is futile; countless NARVS will obscure the claim. Today this is especially evident as the top lists are filled with unfunny trash. The difference between the "Parasite", and a [[NARV]] site, is that the Parasite infects its own host, and it doesn't take images from outside sources.

There is no known vaccine against parasites. All YTMND users are fair game to this plague. The only defense is to label the site a "parasite" (or simply, "a rip-off") if it is known to be stolen from another submission.

Be sure to let infected Parasite users know they are carrying the virus by telling them their site is a "Parasite", and notifying the proper authorities. Original sites that are victim of the parasite are immune to the label of "Parasite", only the stolen site should be branded as such. Unfortunately, most parasites leave their 'creations' up long after it is proven beyond a shadow of a doubt they have stolen, as you will see below.

YTMND's new '[[assets|asset]]' feature allows users to click the cited origin of a site to see what other users have used the same picture or sound. This is an excellent way to determine if a site has been stolen. It is very important to cite your images or else it will create confusion if and when another user finds your gif on the Internet and posts it on YTMND.  Example - [http://ytmnd.com/assets/9b430e02f5d576c965fd6d340f598116 This link] gives a listing of all sites to use the "What Is Love" gif of Katamari Damacy - not one user has cited the image as their own.  The only way to check then is by checking the dates posted, but even that is not a 100% indication the gif originated on YTMND.

YTMND's new asset feature allows users to click the cited origin of a site to see what other users have used the same picture or sound. This is an excellent way to determine if a site has been stolen, or if an image has already been used. It is important to cite your images, or it will create confusion if and when another user finds your image on the Internet and posts it on YTMND.

An asset listing consists of the following: the YTMND site ("http://ytmnd.com/"), the word "assets", a slash, and the {{w|MD5}} sum of the uploaded image or sound. For example, [http://ytmnd.com/assets/9b430e02f5d576c965fd6d340f598116 this link] gives a listing of all sites to use the "[[What Is Love!?]]" GIF of [[Katamari Damacy]]: not one user has cited the image as their own. The only way to check then is by checking the dates posted, though that method is still not a foolproof indication the image originated on YTMND.

Because: Table needs standardized and cleaned

It needs to be cleaned up. Please organize or reword it so it can be held at a higher standard of quality.

A YTMND parasite

The YTMND parasite (thefticus ripoffisis) is said to be the very worst of all YTMND epidemics. The parasite feeds on pre-existing YTMNDs and resubmits them without any alteration (save for removing text, or using different sound) as sites of their own making. Parasites believe that stealing from other YTMND users is an acceptable action. Parasites rarely offer sound or image origins since they usually steal it from other YTMNDs; revealing the origin would result in their exposure.

Vaccines

There is no known vaccine against parasites. All YTMND users are fair game to this plague. The only defense is to label the site a "parasite" (or simply, "a rip-off") if it is known to be stolen from another submission.

Occasionally, users with parasites claim to have obtained the image and/or sound from MySpace or a forum, while claiming it as being an original creation. One must realize that most high quality GIFs are originally from YTMND, and should subsequently be researched before submitting.

What you can do

  • Be sure to let infected parasite users know they are carrying the virus by telling them their site is a "parasite".
  • Unfortunately, most parasites leave their "creations" up long after it is proven that the site's content has been stolen. Luckily, moderators are more than willing to delete sites with stolen content.
  • Original sites that are victims of the parasite are immune to the label of "parasite"; only the stolen site should be branded as such. Unless the "parasite" is eBaum's World, there is no need to notify the original creator.

Asset feature

YTMND's new asset feature allows users to click the cited origin of a site to see what other users have used the same picture or sound. This is an excellent way to determine if a site has been stolen, or if an image has already been used. It is important to cite your images, or it will create confusion if and when another user finds your image on the Internet and posts it on YTMND.

An asset listing consists of the following: the YTMND site ("http://ytmnd.com/"), the word "assets", a slash, and the MD5 sum of the uploaded image or sound. For example, this link gives a listing of all sites to use the "What Is Love!?" GIF of Katamari Damacy: not one user has cited the image as their own. The only way to check then is by checking the dates posted, though that method is still not a foolproof indication the image originated on YTMND.
