Since the last upgrade I'm finding a lot of my Friends marked as offline. I see the usual blue message saying they are online when they arrive in world, and sometimes a message says ***** is offline. But ***** was showing as offline already on my Friends list. No mention of problem on the Blog and I'm wondering if it is me or a new sl glitch!!! Not sure if I can trust Friends anymore.

It's not you or your friends, it happens to me all the time. It's a pain in the butt, but atm nothing can be done about it. Yay for the update!

This happened after the last 2 updates I believe. it's becoming another one of the cute little SL traditions. Actually, my friends list showed evreyone online. I IM'ed them all and no one answered back. But that could just be me. :rolleyes:

So it is not that all the people on my friendlist moved themselves to invisible for me?

Hey! Check the TOS out.

Can you see where it says anything about this ramshackle mess WORKING?

No? There you go...

After the update, log in, no friends list. Relog, got it! ;)

It's become my new routine each time I log on.

However other people aren't so lucky, any number of relogs and their friends list doesn't come up, or it seems to less than half the time.

However it isn't updating properly even if you do get it to come up. You'll get the "so-and-so is offline" despite they were never shown as on. We are all back to IMing random, "testing if you are there?" IM's... :confused:

RL chum of mine and I are in ICQ before logging in. Her list is empty, mine populated. I IM her and her list then populates.

Yeah, I've gone through TOS and nowhere does it say it works ;)

The friends list inworld is always up to date (if it works) Yet the one on the site is always behind.
