Hi, why have I been marked as present whereas I explicitly wrote here that I would be away? And I was effectively away... Regarding my ZNC, you can see that: 1 - parlyline shows I'm off, away message shows I'm off, idle shows I'm away since a while. Quotation: [14:20] == away : Offline [14:20] == idle : 4 days 13 hours 39 minutes 30 seconds [connected: Sun Apr 17 12:38:48 2011]
