RE: Suggestion: Identifying contacts who are appearing offline.
I'm don't know the ins and outs of it all but I do know that if my mother is sitting in the 'appear offline' mode that if I sign in the 'open conversation' notifier will come saying she has opened a conversation with me and I know that it's simply her messenger connecting with mine to retrieve the display pic/contact card info. I know it tends to take away from the fact that you may not want your contacts to know you're 'online' per se but that is also why, to at least some extent, it also works as a block checker. I've had numerous notifications that 'x' contact has opened a conversation, some who I've deleted from the list but not blocked so ... yeah. I guess the only ones who will know are the ones using Stuffplug. Personally I like it but then only about 3 of my contacts use Stuffplug. Just can't seem to convince the others of the extra options of using it and Plus! *fools!*
