KaneRobot is one of the more active moderators on YTMND.com, and has been a member since August, 2004. He is a large (6'6, 320 lbs), older (27) man who enjoys this nonsense. How about THEM apples? Doesn't he have anything better to do?
--NOTABLE YTMNDs--
His most noteworthy work includes the mega-popular "Where is Padme?," a site KaneRobot actually despises. Although he is one of the few YTMNDers to delete some of his own sites after realizing they suck, he leaves that one up (as well as a few of his other more popular ones he now dislikes) for some reason. Most likely because they remind him of a brief, shining period where he was a success story, and could escape the burning and touching and hitting and screaming of abusive "legal" guardians from days gone by.
His site, "OJ gets Hassan'd" is generally acknowledged as the site that got the Hassan fad rolling. His follow-up, "Pee-Wee Gets HASSAN'D" was acknowledged as "funny shit" by Hassan's manager, Shawn Daivari. See the Muhammad Hassan page on YTMND wiki for more information.
One running theme in several of KaneRobot's YTMNDs has been the creation of original audio. "The Blob Works It," "Weird Al Yankovic In: Uncle Nutzy's Clubhouse," and "X-Men Villains On Dance 360" are all examples of music he has created entirely from scratch. "Conan Is...JUGGERNAUT" contains a tantalizing remix of the usual "Conan Is..." music (Tube & Berger's "Straight Ahead"). His tools of choice are Adobe Audition 1.5 and Sonic Foundry ACID Pro.
--HISTORY--
His first site was deleted during Max's "YOU HAVE TOO MANY SITES" mega-purge of 2004(?).
His first "hit" - or site that reached #1 in the top 5 for an extended period - was November 2004's "The Blob Works It." This site featured a created-from-scratch animated gif of The Blob from the X-Men arcade game (whose cry of "NOTHING MOVES THE BLOB" had just caught on as a fad), as well as a created-from-scratch song that featured that voice sample in a "dance mix."
Up through the end of his first year, he was tolerant of fads and repetitive, uncreative sites. As 2006 got closer though, his patience wore thin and he now walks a strange line between up-and-downvoter (witness his average vote of 3). Not fearing "e-venge" downvoting, he routinely rips into what he perceives to be useless fad spawn, NARV-favorite material/pandering to the masses, or just plain garbage. However, he is not "against" a particular fad or type of site if it is truly well done.
After submitting sites on a fairly frequent basis throughout 2004 and 2005, the state of the site (and its community) depressed him to the point where he releases an average of less than one site per month. He purposely keeps them simple, in a foolish hope that it will inspire others to remember that you don't have to have a goddamn 2 MB picture to make a good site. So far those hopes have been knocked to the ground, trampled on, and raped. By a mastodon.
