I don't think this is a bug. VideoBot isn't a user in the system, I think more an alias for a script if anything.

Does this issue occur with a user that is not Videobot?

This happens with every user I've tested so far. Here's an example with Wendell:

I can confirm that.

The ajax request tries to open the users page url, which doesn't exist, for any users.

Maybe it's meant to redirect to the forum?
