Unfortunately there is no instant feed to our minds to update us automatically.There are MANY active members in the community and it won't do to allow this confusion to continue.
Especially when they don't even leave a "used to be ------- " thing in their sig.
I say mods need to reinforce this rule harshly, only leaving leeway for things like - someone changing their name and finding that they simply are not fitting with it and changing back. Otherwise, stop having no respect for everyone around and consistently and constantly masking your identity.
Choose one and stick with it already :/

What if the person wants to try and remain anonymous? Hiding behind a mask of anonymity is one way in which socially insecure people cope. The very insecure will make their anonymity anonymous. Neither I, nor most other people, fall under that category, but if somebody like Alucard needs that, then let him have it.
If he's doing it for some other purpose then maybe he has a reason. Unless he's trying to willfully annoy you, let him be.
I never thought I'd see the day we disagree =P
