I don't get it, it's a picture of an AIM message. Why don't you host it a bbzzdd or someplace?

 

[FoBoT]

it happens when the person goes on idle, then lost connection briefly, then regains connection and logs back on automatically.

 

[Josh]

Ahhhh. Genius.

 

[chambersc]

picture is some aim properties box. the box says online time "33 minutes" idle time "34 minutes"

 

[pillage2001]

WTF?

 

[Qwest]

how is this a big deal? with gaim, you can be online for 1 minute and set your idle time as 34252 days if you want.

 

[BrokenVisage]

Imageshack is your friend.

I didn't even notice that, I thought the joke was the retarded name.

 

[MrCodeDude]

Crop much?

dude, you've never seen that before?

it's been around for uh... 5+ years. basically, besides the aforementioned hacks and idle timers that are available (more recent than 5 years), you can be idle but then get disconnected while being idle. when you reconnect (assuming you auto-reconnect within the allotted time period), your idle status still remains the same as it was before.

it's funny. in college, i used to get disconnected regularly and was idle for god knows how long prior to that. soon, the AIM servers had incorrect information about me (that i couldn't change -- even if i forced a signoff!) telling users i've been idle for 6+ days or so (the amount of time i was initially idle when i first got disconnected) although i hadn't been. i've seen it with friends as well. it's not unusual.

welcome to the internet!

 

[Otaking]

Oh... hmm
