Fanpop Question

What just happened? Can somebody tell me why some profiles are out of my reach? Could this be because they all got banned from this site?

I know I'm still new on this site, but what just happen is really weird, at least to me, anyway. I was going to give some props to my friend, Nikola, who's from Montenegro, but for some reason I landed on Fanpop homepage instead. Why is that? His username is F_F_F. He's a big fan of Finnick's and his motto was Finnick fan forever. F_F_F is an acronym. That explains his username. Okay, I agree, he could find some better username, but still, it's really weird! But, wait, there's more! That's not the only case of a profile out of my reach. The same thing happened when I tried to give some props to my other friend on this site, Ricky, or Ricky_M. (M stands for Marsden, his last name!) Both of them joined this site about a week ago and now I can't reach any of them. How is that even possible? What are the odds they both left this site in a hurry, without even saying goodbye to their friends?? I don't buy it! What is the real reason behind all that? Maybe somebody can tell me. I don't think they would quit Fanpop, not like this. So, what happened? Is it possible they both got banned from this site? How can you get banned, after spending only a week or two on this site?!? Can anyone get un-banned from this site? Did anyone who got banned ever got back again? What could possibly be the reason for getting banned?? Now, I know that my friend, Nick, or F_F_F, is into Wincest (not my thing!), and that my other friend, Ricky, is from Canada, but I don't think they got banned for that! Can you get banned from this site, if Fanpop moderators, or people who run this site, don't like your username, or your country, or your taste in fandoms, or even your user icon, or if someone, like Ricky, was using his real name instead of a username on this site? Can you get banned for posting stuff such as wallposts, or music videos, in your own language? People in Montenegro speak almost the same language we do in Bosnia, as well as the people in Croatia and Serbia, all parts of ex-YU, so we all

+understand each other perfectly. Can you get banned for posting stuff, such as wallposts, or music videos, in your own language, instead of English? If all that is true, then none of us is safe, not just us, new users! I could be next in line! Chances are, I could get banned before I could see your answers. Please help!

Will they ever get their old accounts, or profiles, back, or are they both now lost forever? Not sure how you guys call it on this site. Thank you for answering this question.

Sorry, guys, but it looks like my question was too long, so Fanpop cut it short.

Being as I'm not a moderator I can't really tell you why your friends were banned but. To answer this;

" don't like your username, or your country, or your taste in fandoms, or even your user icon, or if someone, like Ricky, was using his real name instead of a username on this site? Can you get banned for posting stuff such as wallposts, or music videos, in your own language?"

No you can't get banned for having a certian username (I guess unless it contains swearing, but even then I've seen users get away with that). You absolutely can't get banned for liking certain fandoms, that'd be dumb on the admins' parts. Sure people can report you for something silly like that but you won't get banned (hell, we can't even get actually aggressive users banned). And no you can't get in trouble for posting videos in different languages. I do it more often than not.

Honestly, you'd probably have to message the admin if you want to know why they have been banned.
