User Profile not avaliable

[whiskeysour]

What does ot mean when you click on a member's name and it says "user's profile not available"?

Are they semi-banned or blocked somehow by the mods?

I'm pretty sure it means they're permanently banned. For temp bans the profile will say "this user limits who may view their profile", but this also happens sometimes for perm bans, and also when the user actually hides their profile.

They're not banned. I can see the green icon when they're online. Their profile name isn't black. You can still click on it, it just directs to a page that says "user's profile unavailable"

This is what we see when we check your profile.

If the profile name is black and unclickable it means the account was deleted, not just banned. A banned account still exists and could be unbanned. A banned user can try to log in, they just can't do anything but it will still show the green icon. A deleted account is actually gone.

Yup, my profile is hidden.

It looks exactly like that, except it says "This user's profile is not available" instead of "This member limits blah blah blah "

Any idea? They banned?
