1. Jara flails but thinks that this time she'll remember who the person was.
2. A few weeks later, Jara still has to struggle and try to remember the old name of said person before she realises who she's talking to.
3. A few months later Jara has completely forgotten the old username of said person, but sadly enough has never memorised it enough to identify said person on her flist and is thus constantly cursing and trying to remember who said user was again. (Alternatively, she'll want to say something to a certain person and will only remember the old username and end up staring at her flist wondering which one is which again.)
4. A year later Jara is feeling guilty and doesn't dare to tell said person that all identification means for said person have disappeared a year ago.


Conclusion:
1. JARA SUCKS.
2. DON'T CHANGE YOUR USERNAME. Changing your username makes baby!Jara cry.

Disclaimer: Jara recognises the right of anyone on her list to change usernames and will not throw tantrums if people do change their username as it is their decision. She is just pointing out what the ramifications might be and is trying to be funny. The latter doesn't always work.

Well, I haven't changed my username and have no plans to do so. But should I ever change it or should you ever forget who I am, don't stress...just ask me and I'll tell you! You get to reserve the right to ask people who they are again. As a teacher who gets 170 new students a year, I gave up on beating myself up for forgetting a name a long time ago. You get to, too! :)
