In reply to name/handle change: a reason and question, posted by EscherDementian on September 9, 2003, at 10:40:09
Well, if you change your name back, you could do the same as you did the first time: let people know. Then they would know that you are you.
You could even sign your posts Quixote/Escher for a while (for those of us that have no memory retention....:) Then when you are known to people, you could stop using the bygone name because people would know who you are.
Since you are changing for reasons that don't have to do with self-protection, that might work.
Thanks for being so thoughtful when you did it the first time!
