Showing people offline that aren't

[Michael Secord]

This is normal.  On many protocols you can stay offline and still chat

I see them as offline then I suddenly get a message from one of them.  After that I can send and recieve messages from them like normal.  However it will still show them as offline even though I am chatting with them.
