    Can someone enlighten me and tell me what it means when you can't click on poster's username? It doesn't say banned - it's just like normal text?:confused:

    Yeah, I bought hosting off the same guy and he suspended my account 2 days later... I come on here to find out what's going on, and his account is deleted?

    Database errors, and it has caused trouble for several people as they are suddenly unable to trade in the BST.

    @ Anhalo, what was your previous user name ?

    hope this doesn't happen again coz lot of people have lost their benefits of buy sell and trade coz of this. cant these errors be rectified if he person gives his personal information and continue on his previous account?

    It can be done but since DP is fairly large forum it contains a massive amount of data in the database changing parts of it will slow down the process and means DP is down for few hours, check the sticky thread about no user name changes it explain it more in detail.
