i'm not positive but it may have something to do with them maybe not wanting to be seen in search..maybe the viewer they are using has an option that doesn't let them be seen on anyones pages..
i wouldn't want to be shown as online at someones page..thats one thing i hate about the new web design..they added another feature that shows we are online or off..

If someone has chosen to not be visible online to you, their name will not appear on the list of friend on the website, whether they be online or not. Their name will show as offline on your online friends' list though. Does that only sound confusing to me?

i am actually proud i understood that..it really was a good way of saying it..i don't think it could be said easier..still had to read it twice..but yes it makes sense :)

They had that with the old design too, it just took an extra click..
