Why would a player not have a profile?

During one of my games, I clicked on the user name of one of my opponents and got a message that said, "The requested user does not exist." Anyone else's user name brings you right to their profile. So I guess my question is, what in the world is going on here?

They lose the profile if they are banned.
At least they do if they're forum banned, I know that much. Banned from the game may be different however.

Interesting ... this fella's certainly not banned from the game (or he wouldn't be playing, obviously), and it's a tournament game, so I can only assume he can get to the tourney forum to sign up ...

Ah, I see. Given the oh-so-pleasant banter we've been having during the game (I've seen much worse, but it's been a while), I'm beginning to wish it had happened before the tourney.

or he got banned after he joined the game.

When you get banned you are still allowed to finish off all current games but you can't start/join new ones...

depends on the ban...
i mean, t-o-m got forum banned for a while for rick-rolling (you did get banned right?)
but i think you can still play games.
