Default I would like to open a forum about youtube

What do yall think about this?

I was thinking of opening a good quality forum on youtube. This aint gonna be no spam stuff, we are talking Vbulletin software running on a dedicated server and with a nice custom theme.

The domain name was bought this morning, it contains the word youtube and the word forum. The time line is to have the forum up and running sometime in the first week of October.

The tag line / or site title would be something like "The unofficial youtube forums".

In the rules and guidelines would be statements saying the forum is not associated with youtube or google.

The plan is to build a social networking forum for youtube publishers. Where people can post their questions, give tips on youtube videos, discuss video editing software, and post their videos.

There is an automatic embedding modification for vbulletin I would install. When someone post a link to their video, the site would embed the video into the forum.

Any possible legal problems with this plan?

Even though the word "youtube" might be protected, so are words like "ford", "toyota",,,, and people have all kinds of forums on those topics.
