If you click on the user name it says "The requested user does not exist."
To be clear I have no idea if was by user request or what.
I don't think that's typically the reason. It seems to be more common that the poster was banned.

I am not sure, I've never seen someone's user getting removed, even for those who are banned.
That's true.
I hate how we're left guessing with what's happened to a user in these instances.

I could really use an update from Dan Mahowny. So come and sit at the bar if you're out there, my friend. The first round is on me. For so many reasons, but chiefly:
1) he was short TSLA with high conviction. I'd like to know his current thinking and current position.
2) the movie that his user name references is one of my all-time favorite movies. I like it so much that I imported it from Germany, just to watch it again in high def. The American version is only available in standard definition.
If comment #2 fills you with wonder, the name of the movie is "Nichts Geht Mehr" in Germany or "Owning Mahowny" in the USA. The title is not a translation; the distributor or whoever retitled it.
