In 2021 Ubisoft deleted all inactive forum accounts. I posted about it at that time.

Now they are intending to take the forums Offline as of March 31, 2022 and move to a new Discussions platform, which they have already created.
IL-2 Sturmovik, Silent Hunter, and all old simulations content is going to be lost permanently so if you know of something you want to get from there now would be the time to download a local copy of it, or hope it has been archived at the Internet Archive…
