I went to visit ShintetsuWA's user page but for some reason I got a 404 error? I tried typing http://armorgames.com/user/shintetsuWA and still got nothing, what happened?

Here's what Strop said when I asked about it...

"Oh goodness me...alright, I'll give you the short version.
* The user is alleged to have fabricated several personal details, in particular the ones about having a wife and kid and being some kind of doctor in Japan.
* However there's no actual law against that, so this was not why the user was banned. The user was banned because of stolen art. ShintetsuWA attempted to join an AG-based original character tournament using stolen art...that he claimed to be his.
* After being busted for this, he then created an ALT account accusing himself of the theft of the various "signatures" he posted in the past, thus incriminating himself further. Given the now-proven record of persistent art theft, we had no choice but to permanently ban."

So that should explain it.

If you get a 404 message when you try to access a profile, it's usually because that user was permanently banned. (On rare occasions there's been a glitch where every page would 404, but it's usually easy to know the difference.)
