When you try to look at the discussions started by a particular user on their profile, what does the above message actually signify?

I think it means their account has been closed.

If you look at any post they've made previously, if their avatar looks "broken" (even if it's the standard avatar) then that's a good indicator that they're (temporarily or permanently) on the "naughty step".
Edit: I might be thinking of a different scenario. I found just such an occurrence in the Edit Post thread, and notice that hovering over the (broken) avatar shows a tooltip of the username plus (Banned) after it.

What I'm talking about is where you go to someone's profile page and you can see the number of discussions and replies they've made, but if you click on their discussions you get the "You do not have access... " message. They are definitely current posters.

They have restricted their profile, so other users can't see it.

If you mean by another mechanism then I couldn't see any such obvious option in my own profile pages.Jenni x3 -
I have a feeling it's because they've put you on ignore. I've not used the option before - but I just tried it with a '1 post poster' and it lets me 'ignore' then 'unignore'. So I've just put you on temporary 'ignore - see if you can see my active threads posts etc - and then later tomorrow I'll take you off ignore and you can try again then.An ex-bankrupt on a journey of recovery.

We've removed some posts from this thread. Please do not discuss decisions made by the Forum Team on the forum, or discuss the status of other users' accounts.
There are a number of reasons why a user's post count may not match the number of threads/replies available to view via their profile, as some of the forum's background administrative functions rely on the creation of threads and posts.Official MSE Forum Team member.Please report all problem posts to forumteam@moneysavingexpert.com2 -
To avoid specifics ... a poster has been banned. BEFORE they were banned the problem with "You do not have access to any discussions on this page" was evident with their profile. We do not believe that any of use checking their profile were on their Ignore list. (That was the original purpose of identifying the poster - to give you a specific example of where it was happening).
Please provide an update as to WHY this is happeningJenni x1 -

And I edited while you replied.
In said poster's profile I could see that they had (allegedly) started 3 discussions - clicking the Discussions link in their profile yielded the above-noted message. I cannot see how admin functions would cause that message to be shown ... if posts had been deleted (or hidden for report assessment) then I would have expected to see that they had created No threads, not that "error" message.
Sounds like yet another weird foible of this forum platform 🙄Jenni x3
