 Occasionally, we'll have users that can't be found in wp-admin when we go
 to block them (this needs to be done via the user list and then the block
 applied as a bulk action, as we do not have Network Admin, which is
 required to access individual users).

 The users can be found via `profiles.wordpress.org/$user`,
 `/support/users/$username` and the old `/support/profiles/$user`, but
 '''not''' via `/wp-admin/users.php?s=tech2017`.

 The most recent user we've discovered like this is `tech2017`, the block
 was applied using the old bbPress 1.x profile link in the cases where we
 can't find the user in wp-admin, but I'm not sure if that will have an
 affect (the flag appears to be set as it should when comparing to
 profiles.wordpress.org at least)
