I haven't seen any behavior like this before. Can you ensure that it's
related to the indicator applet? To be sure you can uninstall the
pidgin-libnotify plugin and then try the same steps and see if it still
occurs.
Thank you.

Persistent chats in Pidgin cause unexpected behavior

Status in Indicator Applet: Incomplete
Bug description:
When using Pidgin with Indicator Applet while the Pidgin system tray icon is
hidden (that's the point of Indicator Applet, right?), persistent conversations
create some very bad behavior.
First, Pidgin suddenly ignores the fact that I've asked it not to use tabbed
conversation windows and presents them to me in that manner anyway. This isn't
that big of a deal IMO.
Second, two of the tabs that are presented to me are persistent IRC chats. When
I try to close one of those tabs, it is instantly recreated as a new tab. If I
try to close the window, this begins happening recursively (destroying and
recreating the persistent chat tabs) and eventually Pidgin crashes.
The expected behavior under these circumstances would be how Pidgin behaves
when not using Indicator Applet when closing a persistent conversation window.
In that case, the conversation is simply hidden and continues to be logged and
monitored for usage of one's nickname in the background.
