As we can see it is redirecting to youtube.com/user/XXX which only exists if you created your channel before Google+.
It should be replaced with youtube.com/XXXX/XXXX so it would fit both of the users.


Edit:
Better idea is using this format : youtube.com/(based on X length)/XXXX whereas the user text length affects the other text.

I've been trying to figure this out for the past 10 min, but I don't really understand what you are trying to say. youtube.com/user/XXX? the XXX stands for https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCUn-n9Dhv0mjn9fOrPQYmFw I guess? So I should type youtube.com/UCUn-n9Dhv0mjn9fOrPQYmFw/UCUn-n9Dhv0mjn9fOrPQYmFw ? That doesn't work for me… Could you explain or just give the right link to me?

As of this moment you can't fix this.
I'll explain,
if you opened your channel before Google+ merge it would be like www.youtube.com/user/MaccariTAch
if you opened your user after Google+ merge it is www.youtube.com/channel/RANDOM_LETTERS
Right now, I think Badlion is using the following format: www.badlion.net/user/USER_INPUT and therefore if your account was made after the Google+ merge, it is not possible to link it.

Not really considering he inserted his username and it didn't function properly, so technically it does fit into the Bugs/ Broken features folder.

I understand now. They should fix this so everyone could put www.youtube.com/channel/RANDOM_LETTERS

Your example is not related to Badlion.
It is a bug because he (and many others) can't link their YT account.
