The whole problem is summed up in the post topic.
I cannot access my profile.
It says "This user has not registered and therefore does not have a profile to view."
What's up with that?
Oh, I can do everything else I've tried so far.

I have the same problem when trying to access your profile. Accessing my own works fine.

What, am I in RU witness protection or something?

I think you're a ghost.
Either that, or you're just not real.
Maybe your account got lost in the Matrix.

No guys, it's a government conspiracy orchestrated by none other than the supposedly dead Joseph Stalin who rules America from the shadows.
It's like something JG would say. :p

Now that you said that, we're all gonna be shut down.
Darn, and right when I was gonna get a high score submitted.

It's spreading. I was going to post something on Chris Point's wall and his profile has the same problem.

It looks like some non letter characters in profile names are being replaced in the hyperlinks.
For example 'chris.point' is going to 'chris-point'.
'Demon-Mask' is going to 'demon-mask' (the captilization doesn't matter), so there seems to be some html character code mismatching going on with the '-' character, maybe some confusion between -, , and . See here..... (http://www.lookuptables.com/)
All affeced chars are being replaced with '-', that being whatever variant is being used by HTML as described above.
A quick trip through random profiles here (http://www.retrouprising.com/memberindex.php?do=usergrouplisting&groupid=2) show that problem characters include '$', '-', and '.' . There are probably more.
As an unrelated note, there should probably be some cleanup of inactive (0 posts, 0 scores, and haven't logged in for years) accounts. A ton of server space (both related to storage and account indexing for searches) could be freed up that way.

Thanks Kong. I was mildly frustrated with the inability to see my profile.
