they are currently linked to usernames,which is why you lose them during a name change if they are linked to our userid, we wont lose forum posts when we change names

Support.
I change my name a lot, and when I do, I can't look through "MyForums" to continue my heavy flame wars.

| It's really baffling why it wasn't linked to userID from the start. |

it's strange that it happens for some people and not for all people
i didn't lose any of my posts
none of my friends lost any of their posts
all i can say is it has nothing to do with userids in fact they already are linked to userids because clicking on the user still takes you to their profile they just display the name that appeared when it was posted
removing your post count must be something that was manually added and that specifically is the problem

Support.
This would be helpful for the people who actually have this happen to them.
To the people that haven't experienced this, they won't notice a thing.

It would be best to keep it as username, as the transition to UserIds from Usernames would still have the same effect as changing your username.
All post count, post, etc, will be back at 0.

You are only thinking about AFTER the transition from Username to ID.
What you don't see, is that in the database manager ( phpMyAdmin, and much more, ), ROBLOX stores data similar to this:
Username table > ROBUX, Forum Post > Forum Count > Friends > Messages - and the list goes on.
What you don't see, if they were to change support to the ID, all data saved as a username would have to be restarted to its original stat ( which would be 0 ) |
