In One of the discussion, I read the conversation that if not changing profile picture and name, mylot friends won't respond for the post. Is it true?

No. If anything, by changing your display name and profile picture so frequently, you will find people aren't responding to you. Mainly because those who normally respond to you, won't recognize your new display name and photo.

I have been using the same profile picture and user name since I signed up here (more than 8 years). If that is the case then I won't get any response

@prashu228 Yes it is our identity in fact. Some people often changed it and I am getting confused there with them.

No it would have the opposite effect, it confuses people when others just change their picture all the time.

I too identify with your profile picture, It looks like me a lion face (opening egg) eventhough it is only an egg

No. That's the complete opposite of what would probably happen! I've had the same name and profile picture since I joined over 10 years ago. Personally, I'd get confused. Changing your profile picture, yes, OK, you might want to do that, especially if it is a picture of yourself and you want to keep it up to date. But changing your name doesn't make sense. People might actually miss your discussions, not realising who you are. Why wouldn't friends respond to a post if you don't change the name and picture? Sorry but that's completely illogical.

It is not necessary for me. I haven't changed my profile for quite a long time. I am not very interested in changing it. As I am afraid my friends can't recognize me

That particular conversation and response might have been in a different context altogether since very few people here change their profile picture often. Mine for example has been there for a couple of years now..

It's upto you if you want to change the picture or not... I don't think it's anyway related to the responses..

No that's not true. If the people whose discussions I always respond to changes their profile picture and name very often I might not recognise them

I think it is not applicable. I had changed mine last month. Only if I feel doing it.

Maybe you misunderstood and what the person was actually saying was if you change your profile picture and name frequently you may get less responses? Where did you see this statement?

I don't think so. I changed my profile pic because I just want . And I like knowing who I'm commenting. So if the name and the profile pic are changed every month I don't think I can keep up and will probably think of it as a new person for me.
