What the Heck is with youtube?
You know, I don't think its really quite fair that people have simply gone on youtube and created and account with a username simply for the sake of having it. I have my username across 2 platforms and it is unique and simple. owatch But when I want to create a youtube account with that name I can't cause someone took it. I would have NO problem with that had the account been used for something. Which it hasn't
The account has been idle for 4 years. (2007)
AND had NO CONTENT, and has not been touched,
I really want this one username and I think it as unfair that I cannot put it to good use as someone hogged it instead. Is there anyway to get it back or is it just lost?
Why's everyone acting like I'm terribly upset? I'm not. I've had an account for 2 years now. Jesus. It's a question I just posted when getting annoyed after seeing the account username I would have liked been taken by someone who had no use for it.
@mazizcul Why don't you get a life? Instead of searching Yahoo Answers to tell people they should be? I'm asking a question here. If you don't like it screw off and answer someone else's

Nope, I want my account I made like 4 years ago back and i got responded that there is no verification that it was my account (PurpleLopez). And no they won't it's a matter of security. Basically for "them" its like saying "Hey these people haven't touched their bank account for 4 years can i have it?"

Perhaps they were like me, you have to sign in to see adult video and when I created an account I noticed that youtube adult videos are as dull as hell and not worth the time to watch them, and so I never used my account again.

You cant base your whole freakin life on a username - YOU'LL LIVE.
Just make a similar name or add some numbers 2 it - Also you NEED a life....

Welcome to the internet. Grow up and pick a different username. Add a "1" to it or something, and move on with your life.

its been done before, but i believe you have to have connections with a youtube partner, who can then contact the youtube managers directly.
