Two years and still no decent reply about this problem? I found that the most annoying thing on this bug report is that you CAN create groups and you CAN add people to them, and empathy silently screw things up when you restart it. Why is not possible to save groups locally? I'm sure the data

Honestly, how is this bug classified as Won't Fix? Facebook is one of the most utilized protocols regardless of which client someone uses. The whole point of using an IM client such as empathy, pidgin, or digsby is to combine multiple protocols into one EASY TO USE interface. If the empathy

I have the same issue concerning facebook groups. The obvious solution is that Empathy should maintain the groups locally. This is no problem in other clients such as Digsby, which simply saves the group allocations itself, independent of the protocols. -- Facebook contacts cannot be added to
