    If you wanna get your old one back, you'll probably need to make a google account, sync them together, and then use a cell phone that accepts text messages to get an activation code. It's not hard (youtube or whatever walks you through shit), but you'll need a phone.

    However, if you wanna make a new account (which is what I did not too long ago), you might not need a phone (I didn't). You'll just need to follow the instructions that Youtube gives you for creating an account, and you'll likely need an e-mail that's not associated with an existing account. I don't remember it being all that different from making an account anywhere else.

    Your call, but something that's easy to remember never hurts. :)

    I remember back in the day where you could have multiple Youtube Accounts under the same Email Address.

    I literally spammed that option back in the day to get a whole lot of accounts but now you can;t do that anymore and soon all those accounts I made are going to be terminated.

    You don't need to use the phone option. Originally it was required but that requirement was lifted.

    Well, you still need to do that to recover an account if you were logged out of because of the old sms prompt. I think it's got more to do with Google than Youtube, but ever so often I try to log into my WhyteSpectre account & get rejected because of it.

    It's not like I care that much, but I had a few videos on my favorites that I'd like to know the names of, and they can't be viewed from my new channel because they were taken down for copyright reasons.
