occupants, chat rooms, how can i tell how many occupants are online? etc.. displays users in room but as offline

[Eion Robb]

Hi there,

What type of protocol is it that you're seeing this behaviour on?

If it's XMPP it can just be part of the way the protocol works, depending
on the type of chat room.  The people in the room list are indeed in the
room, but if they're not advertising their "raw jid" and instead use the
server to specify their own username wihin the group, or if they are being
'anonymous', then they won't be showing any status.

Cheers,
Eion
