Like, I ALWAYS know pooh_bear by the roasted chicken avatar zie uses, but if it changed tomorrow to, say, an actual Pooh Bear, I'd be confused. Who is this person and why are they a moderator? I'd be thinking. I confuse easily, though.

(And, yeah, I had to look up pooh_bear's name for this post. And I probably STILL got it wrong.)

So I'm just wondering if I'm Dumber Than Most or if the "remembers the picture, but not the name" is a usual thing for some other MR people.
No your not I too get confused. But only when I don't interact with the person there are a few folks that I can identify even when they change their Avatar.

I don't change my avatar to often.
