Us: "Hey, YouTube! We have an issue, and we think this change will make YouTube better, can you help us, it'll probably take 2 seconds..."
YouTube: "Nah, we're busy working on this new crappy, confusing channel we're forcing all of our users to use. Just delete all your stuff and make a new channel."
Us: "But, I've already uploaded hundreds of monetized videos, and I have hundreds of subscribers...I'll lose everything if I do that!"
Sooo...this is obviously a common issue, otherwise you wouldn't post a video about it...and with the response you're giving...you pretty much show you don't care about your users...way to go...at least change the "Uploaded By USERNAME" to "Uploaded By CHANNEL NAME."...You've got over 5500 users AT LEAST who want their names changed...so you want us ALL to delete our content and re-upload it, wasting HOURS of time?
So...are we suppose to delete and repost all of our videos? -.- at least give us a reason as to WHY it would be so much trouble that we just change our username.
@183472 I think it would have been better if they just had a guy from YT sitting in front of a camera and say "You can change your username but you have to start a new account to do so." That would have been much more mature then this.
So you have to make another account... imagine if everyone made another account, how would ur servers feel then youtube? If there werent any avalible usernames how would someone new register and remember hes username? I wouldnt, I would make a new one. So lets imagine if everyone made 3 accounts 3 times all of youtubes members is quite alot i belive.
How lame of YouTube not to have this feature. You think they would be able to find a way to implement that by now. Who knows maybe they are working on it as I type.
Notice that everyone who's looking to change their username has currently an unsatisfactory, ugly looking username lol that must suck! What's worst is, people like YouTubeHelp are making fun of it by posting irritating (funny) videos.
my name needs to be changed so my friends dont watch embarrassing videos of me when I was young and don't tell me to delete my videos because one has loads of views (well what I describe as loads)
This isn't changing it at all. Does youtube staff really think that deleting one account and creating a new one from scratch is changing our username? I don't think so, so why is this their answer?
Youtube should really consider changing this policy. Plenty of other websites allow users to change their username. I don't see why Youtube should be so different. At the very least, they should let us change the capitalization of our usernames.
@Purple3ggplant I agree...I've been wanting change my Username for so long now. This used to be my mother's, but she gave this to me. And I've been using it ever since 2008 I think...I just want to change my Username, nothing more. And I can't figure out how OTHER THAN just creating a brand new one. All my stuff (except the two videos my mother uploaded) are in this account...TT_TT
I do not like the answer but at least I know the answer to a question that has been in my mind. YouTube should really reconsider the policy on this and allow YouTuber to change their user name without changing their account. In this country you do get to change your name i.e. through marriage, legally-without changing who you are, you get to keep your friends etc. . Our accounts and views and subs are part of us now, we do not want to lose them if for some reason we need to change the user name.
I just wanna change my name to SleepyGuyy (yes two y's) because that is my consistent online name unfortunatly i can only change the channel , and my first name. So know everytime i make a comment i look like a Nintendo fanboy biased prick... WIImotionmasher, what was i thinking. And really i dont upload videos but i have so many favorites on this account id have to get the URLs for all of them, delete my current account, create the new one, then spend an afternoon adding all the videos back on!
