I actually tried talking to the guy and he's really defensive about it. Here are the responses I got from him.
" I don't see how my latest comments are related to ur website. I prefer actually giving people tips about equipment and techniques that actually work in harsh adrenalized environments while ur website mostly sticks to identifying guns without any life saving reputation. I no longer see a point to identifying guns in movies. I've moved on to a realistic and applied area of weapons manipulation as should you. My intention is not to pose as your website official. I'd rather not have any irresponsible user take the name and tarnish ur websites impression on the gun community. U should consider urself lucky an irrational kid doesn't have this account name. I'll clearly state to them that I don't have any affiliation with you what so ever as I've been doing for the last year. Trust me I've seen the replies. Only 1% off people that reply to me recognize that website. It's not like ur name has a trademark of gets me thumbs up on my comments. " Yeah, this guy's a bit annoying.

Yeah, he sounds like a moron...
Well at the very least like you said earlier we should probably look into making a placeholder channel.

So call it "IMFDBOfficial" or something similar.
There are ways around some jackhole squatting on a domain name.

The other thing you can do is lodge a complaint with youtube. It probably won't do anything but its at least worth a try.

What I don't really get is that if he really isn't trying to masquerade as us, why in the world did he choose the name "IMFDB"? There aren't any other websites or organizations that use that acronym that I'm aware of.

I know, but it's just weird. He says just using the name of our site is like me using the name Excalibur.
Obviously Excalibur is open domain. No one has a claim on the actual name.
