If the Username doesn’t exist in game, It’s most likely that they blocked you, or you blocked them. I’m not sure if there’s anything else that could’ve gone wrong, perhaps others will know if there were any similar glitches.
Or perhaps you just mistyped the username.

there's a chance they could've deleted their account as well, or you could've misspelled it. i could be wrong, but when the username doesn't exist, i don't think that's because they blocked you.

Usually when you type in a username to add them, it is never because they blocked you, but rather, as stated above:

1. The user's account was deleted.
2. The username was typed incorrectly.

Considering you stated the username was typed correctly, and given that you are trying to add an old player, I can only assume that the account in question was deleted (likely because the account may have been inactive for a year or more, and was automatically removed by the system), so you unfortunately won't be able to add them considering their account is likely gone.

I hope this helps, and thank you to everyone for helping as well!

If you'd like you can give me the person's username and I can look them up to know for sure if their account is gone. (It's possible they have a space at the end of their username, too!)

When an account is automatically deleted due to inactivity, it only deletes the game account, and not the forum one. This would explain why you can still find them on the forums

oh o.0 i'd of thought if an account was deleted by being inactive that it would of deleted the forum one too
