Good cause, decent poster = 4.

I like the atmosphere.

+3 for citing sources and supporting the cause +1 for making me laugh

Would be better with nazis.

Was the Red Star army not of the Soviet Union? Of which Stalin was in charge? Also, Klasky's rendition of a "YTMND Soldier" far outweighs this- No offense.

AWSOME! another "ytmnd army", just what we needed!

5d for mail response

Well it seems almost sloppy, to tell you the truth... Also, my point was not that it was "Poorly Executed"- that was typogra's point. My point was that it's a little historically awkward to me, being that I thought that the Red Star Army had nothing to do with hitler- that it had something to do with the Soviet Union. Forgive me for not being a history buff, I've just never really been interested in that sort of stuff.

image too big on a 1024x768 res. and, it sucks.

-2 for mixing nazis and communists.

Man! So much vitriol for what is in fact a relatively average-good YTMND. I suppose what stops this from being great is there's no clear call to action, aside from "donate today." Does that mean "Sponsor this YTMND so we can help Max keep YTMND afloat?" Is it just a joke? If it IS just a joke, what does being in the Red Star Army entail? You're blowing my MIND. Okay, no more comments before coffee from now on, I promise. :D

it's just puerile and vacuous (among other things); the way you just haphazardly combine disparate elements in an attempt to make something coherent. as sexymofo would say "you fail, please try again ^_^"

da, comrade

That would be because people who divide the world into "upvoters" and "downvoters" engage in anonymous e-venge all the time. Their logic is that they'll retaliate against public one-star votes that have comments by making anonymous one-star votes. For being the self-appointed "good guys," most YTMND users sure are gutless little bitches.

inkdrinker makes a very good point. definitely not all, not even most, but a good number of users who complain loudest about the act of downvoting are e-vengers. the user Alijia made several sites complaining of downvoters but when I 1'd one of his sent me this hiliarious pm:

and when I told him I woudlnt back down and give him the 5s, made around 5 more sites that night about downvoting. you should check out his stuff, pretty hilarious. Again, the name is Alijia, true Lord of YTMND.

I'm not sure about this whole "downvoter" conversation going on here... downvote/upvote is pretty much the same as left/right partisanship in American politics... there's no middle ground. And logrolling is "scratch my back and I'll scratch yours" only, of course, it's "you f*cked me I'll f*ck you back."

The latter being e-venging. Also, messing with downvoters can be fun as their psyches are fragile. I mocked and pm'ed this ridiculous downvote flamer and when he failed to justify any of his actions and his flame got more ridiculous I made a personalized perma-ban site about him which he subsequently 5'ed and 5'ed every new site the rest of the night. Couple days later I checked back and... his account was gone. With a couple fresh 1's in his wake. Permabanned, I presume...?

lol! Red Star.. means the guys russian except in the sound theyre speaking german

hmmmm

I'm so sick of the preloader when it's not needed.

shut up redhex, you'er the one who countless times continued to accuse people of viewhacking, that didnt.

I dont really have an opinion on the site which is why i didnt vote... I just saw inks comment. we dont agree on a whole lot when it comes to YTMND but I didnt want his comment to be disregarded just because its him. Somehow that ends up to 'c*cksucking' when it comes to that assumptuous douche redhex.

This is f*ggy.

So yeah, it's possible to genuinely enjoy a lot of sites, that's not a bad thing... it means you have a healthy sense of humor. It's also fine to have lower voting standards, though it more pressure is probably put on lower voters to explain their 1-star votes, which isn't usually too much to ask.. if they're honest about it, and aren't douchebags about it, then there should be no problem.

harsh was a generalized comment... some of these people are leaving comments that take no thought... specifically, things like "This is f*ggy." or "the only people upvoting this are stupid asians who don't know the difference between hitler and stalin"

i wonder how many of these people have burned cats and laughed, or if they live in their mothers' basements at the age of 36... or if they are just bored kids who think it's funny to try to piss off strangers...

either way... i still printed a pretty decent copy of this pic and am planning on framing it and sticking it on my wall... I AM PLEASED with it, and that is what matters, right? now i just have to figure out how to make my picture frame play the sound, too... hehehe

no, I genuinely believe it is mostly dumb asians with a infantile grasp of early 20th century european history that are upvoting this. that and a few other generally stupid people. sorry if my opinion "annoys" you, oh great and masterful artist

F*ckin' commies

"yue" sounds asian. i rest my case

Why didnt you get an unedited picture of a USSR officer with 5 stars on his collar? Sh*t you're dumb/gay

I understand your frustration at mindless downvoters, but understand that not all of the people on ytmnd want to (or need to) justify their votes on sites to anyone. Nor do they deserve e-vengeful downvoting on their sites in retaliation to said votes. People need to learn to take things in stride. Instead of arguing with people's opinions, try and think about why the person may have commented how they did.

make it fit

Aw we made him cry :,(

red star army.. and then you throw hitler in there l2 history

red star, made me think of the Soviet Union who helped wipe out the truthless idea of Nazism.

1'd for idiocy. The Red Star has nothing to do with Hitler. It's very clear to me that you weren't burdened with higher education.

wow... i can't believe you people are this retarded... it isn't about hitler or russia... jesus... it's a propaganda poster for ytmnd based on easily recognizable things FROM ytmnd... it isn't real... i give the average user too much credit... from now on i should just make sites that involve under aged tits and asses with cats and bad club music while sam jackson bitches about snakes...

OK, Blah joined in August of 2004, has not made any sites and has not voted on anything. He's inert. I don't see how that's a suggestion.
