Due to people being able to easily change their username these days, I've been thinking that perhaps usernames may be a little harder to keep track of as far as trolls/drama llamas/bad artists/customers since they can easily assume a new alias once they see their file and people who don't go through their posts won't know the difference. I was thinking instead that, in addition to their current username, we could also make note of their account number, which cannot be changed and allows easy copy pasta access to their profile. I'll use myself as an example:
Let's say someone makes a file on me:
Drama File: Comanche
I see this and change my username to, I don't know, Fish and Chips. Now people quickly glancing through the drama files will only know me by Comanche, and when I come to them as Fish and Chips they won't know to stay away. Now let's use my account number:
Drama File: Comanche (8811)
I change my username again, but now if I'm acting suspiciously, you can check my account number (which is found in the URL to your profile) and see that Fish and Chips is the dramalicious 8811, without any doubt.
This could also, as an aside, be useful for keeping track of dramalicious persons, as then you can very easily do this:
And follow their posts instead of having to search for them. Thoughts?
