I'm in online mode. STOP BOTHERING ME!
Y'know how there's online, invis, and away mode (and other kinds of away mode for the individual in you)? Why do people stay in online mode but wish to be left alone? This is especially the case with online games where people stay 'online' and start ragging on you when you say 'hi'.
grr...asl?

Pay attention to the last part of the song...
it makes them feel as if they have reached a pinnacle of importantness where they can be on msn and tell anyone to bugger off
either that or they're waiting for that girl they have a crush on to IM them
because they wont IM her (too scared)
Or maybe they just don't like talking to you.
It's annoying, though generally the person is online to talk to one person in particular, and doesn't want to block every other person on the list. At least, that's been the case in my experiences.
i just stay in "appear off-line" mode until i want to talk with somebody.
some chick on my yahoomessanger adds me to her friends list.I knew her since i was in middle school anyway a few months later she is like whot he F are you and stuff and told me to stop IMing her or she'll remove me.I'm like wtf becaus eI just tell anyone thats online on my list hell and they have a choice not to reply or not..To say its weird and freaky to say hello to someone on my friend's list.Then that person has serious problems.
I used to stay on invisible mode on forums, but then I realized that there wasn't much point.
people at school always moan at me because I forget to set aways. When I went to lousiana, this one girl tried to msg me about ten times in that month.
It was funny explaining to her that I hadn't been to my computer at all in a whole month.
Whether I even look at someone's IM status depends on the person I'm messaging. For some people (like a certain guy who is always "Busy" but does nothing but watch anime all day), I'll ignore the status altogether, but for most people I don't know in person, well, I don't don't really message anyone anyway.
And I don't pay much attention to my own IM status, so for anyone hesitating to send me an IM, disregard my status altogether. I change it maybe once a week.
i am invisible, just like a ninja should be :fpninja: . i never should've blown my own cover, but i'm not being a spy anyway...

No one PMs me anyways, and I'm always logged into the forums, so whatever.

I always appear offline.

EDIT: There's also the fact that sometimes I just forget to put an away message up (or take it down).
Bow before the mighty Javoo!
I swear everytime I start playing Guild Wars and forget to put up an away message, PG, you IM me. Just you. Every time.
I'm usually on "away" on Trillian 'cause I can talk on it and still be shown as away if I only want to talk to one or two particular people. I do that a lot when I talk to Ashley. Huzzah!
This is exactly why I don't IM people very often, and on the rare occasions that I do I always feel as if I'm being a nuisance and that they're scribbling my name down on an 'Idiots I'll never speak to again' list.
When people IM me at an inconvenient time, I try not to bite their head off. After all, it's my fault for not changing my status in the first place. So I either chat with them for a while or make up a quick excuse and sign off. But I'd never do that to you, of course.

Sometimes I wonder what my life would be like if I were as great as Paulo Wanchope.
