    You need a certain number of fans before you can change the URL, if that's what you mean.

    Other then that, simply picking the username sometimes gives errors if the name is already taken.

    No, that's facebook's problem. Just now cleared and i set that. We need just 25 fans to set a username.

    You can't register "premium words" on Facebook because they're reserved... for instance, facebook.com/diamonds or whatever.

    Thousands of people were getting this error, it was a FB glitch. It is working properly now after about a week of being broken.
