---------------------+-------------------------------
 It seems when using facebook chat on libpurple clients (pidgin, adium), if
 the person you are chatting with is using a mobile device, they appear
 offline, connect, send the message, and then disconnect again

 example:

 {{{
 2:38:01 PM Matthew: it's not a vgui thing
 Changed status to Offline (2:38:01 PM)
 Changed status to Online (2:38:10 PM)
 2:38:10 PM Matthew : i'm working on that.  please keep working on weapons
 Changed status to Offline (2:38:10 PM)
 2:38:47 PM Me: are those in hl2ctf.h? just cause the grenade stuff needs
 to know the team =P
 Changed status to Online (2:38:56 PM)
 2:38:56 PM Matthew : ohhh
 Changed status to Offline (2:38:56 PM)
 Changed status to Online (2:38:56 PM)
 2:38:56 PM Matthew : umm
 Changed status to Offline (2:38:56 PM)
 Changed status to Online (2:38:59 PM)
 2:38:59 PM Matthew : sec
 Changed status to Offline (2:38:59 PM)
 2:39:12 PM Me: right now its if(team=2) then combine else rebel
 2:39:19 PM Me: dunno if that would break if its a spectator?
 Changed status to Online (2:40:04 PM)
 2:40:04 PM Matthew: enum

 }}}


 From the #pidgin irc, someone mentioned that it is because the user is
 using a mobile device, which also was the case in the chat I posted above

 I'm not sure if anything can be done about this as it appears to be a
 Facebook XMPP problem, but i'm posting it here anyway for the record
