After adding all my accounts to Pidgin I've attempted to consolidate them
into groups. Since Pidgin inherited a bunch of different groups from
ICQ/AIM/MSN etc. my contacts were all over the place. When I dragged my
ICQ contacts from one group to another Pidgin asked me for submitting
authorization request. Since I've had some of the contacts for years this
seemed rather confusing. Why do I need THEM to authorize me to drag THEM
around in my local list? So I hit "Cancel". What happened next was simply
unpredictable. Pidgin appears to have deleted my contacts from the contact
list on the ICQ server. Since I didn't have log history for some of them I
have no way of bringing them back. This is a wonderful feature!
