Can anyone figure this one out?

Addictive

Addictive

Loving YTtalk
When I type my channel name in under the setting on this site for username to link my channel, ... the link takes me to the wrong channel. Its takes me to a channel with no videos, pics, etc... but has the same name as mine... I want to be able to link my channel for everyone just like the rest of you, but I cant. When I go into my settings and type my channel name that link redirects to another channel. .. Anyone ever heard of this? Any guidance would be appreciated...
 
While AddictiveSubstance is your YouTube username, it isn't your channel URL! You need to go to your YouTube settings and create the custom URL for your channel! Right now your channel's URL is just a series of random letters and numbers.

Hey BG, when I have tried to do that in the past it tell me 'AddictiveSubstance' is already taken or not available... I did try that though

It's likely someone with the account that just watched videos etc.. Same thing happened to me, I couldn't get the InformU URL, so I had to go with InformUShow instead, it sucks!
 
I have the same problem well sort of, my channel name is QueenLlama but my URL is Queenllamas which is very annoying because if you type my channel name in the url bar it takes you to someone else's channel...

Yeah that sounds frustrating....

Damn it!!! I created a custom URL and it worked...but I misspelled it...haha!! Not even sure if I should be mad or not.....at least it gets you to the right spot now....$%#!!
 
... I love being JeriKane. It's almost a guarantee that my name will be available wherever I go. Except Twitter. >_>

Anyway, yeah you I believe you have to make a custom URL. It sucks that it can't be what you want, but I'm sure if you added a number or something like that, it'll be available.
