In summary, crossouts on user profiles are a visual indication that a user has been banned or suspended from a platform or community. This can occur due to violations of the platform's terms of service or community guidelines, such as harassment, spamming, or posting inappropriate content. Depending on the severity of the violation, users with crossouts may still be able to use the platform with limited functionality or may be completely banned. Most platforms have a process for users to appeal their crossouts, and the best way to avoid getting them is to carefully follow the platform's rules and guidelines.

I believe that a member with a deactivated account can't be clicked on.
