What OS are you using? The default keyserver depends on your linux 
distro, and the default in Debian-based distros (keys.openpgp.org) 
doesn't serve userIDs by default. If you published your key there and 
then imported it into a different keyring, it wouldn't have come with 
the userID unless you went through their email verification procedure first.
