okay, it's not so much of a big deal.

Okay, so sending sms' now costs money, and i no longer want to have mobile contacts appear as mobile contacts, rather just based on their actual status (online/offline). So i was wondering if there could be an option to get groups back to just 'offline users' and 'online users', removing the whole concept of having "mobile" contacts (for viewing by STATUS primarily).

Also, for when viewing by GROUPS rather than status, mobile buddies will count to the tally of online users, rather than being percieved as offline.

eg "(4/12)" could mean 1 person is actually online, and 3 people are "mobile contacts", if one of those mobile contacts logs on, the tally wont change.

So, either i don't want them to count to the overall tally, or they should have a different tally system for when viewing by groups. ie (3/4/12) means 3 online users, 4 mobile users, 12 total users in this group.

edit:

for some, by using "group mobile contacts together", it only removes contacts when viewing by groups, and puts them in a separate group called "mobile", rather than leaving them in the group to which they were allocated, and making them offline/ not count to online totals. Also, this does not make the "mobile" group dissappear when viewing by status, as described above.
