Everytime someone new IMs me now their screenname appears on my buddy list under Recent Buddies. WTF is this crap? If I wanted to add them I'd add them.

they added the feature onto regular aim, where there aren't any logs ;)

if you go into preferences there is an option to disable the "recent buddies" thing
