you do kinda get 'known' and are instantly recognisable by name....its fine for folk who are here regularly, or are very familiar with you and know about the change when it actually happens, but to newbies or others who log in 3 days later, without a 'aka' or 'formerly known as' in the sig I wouldnt have a clue
but then I still 'recognise' folk as I did as a noob - by name or avatar pic
