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[Got sources?]. However, a 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.

As of 25th of september, ytmnsfw forums are no more.
