In Game Buddy Notification (offline option).

Hey,

I have noticed that when I select the "Offline" option for the Buddy Notification (flashing buddy icon) I get kicked from offline when one of my buddies comes online. This of course defeats the offline option. Can it be fixed?

Hi,

I just tested it and can't reproduce.
You can't receive notification if you are disconnected.

There is a known bug that makes the notification stays if you disconnect while a notification is displayed.

If you click on "OFFLINE" you'll get back online, but it's a feature.

Thanks for you report

Is this another one of those bugs in which I am the only one who has to endure???

Anyone else experience this plz say so...

I kid you not. I am offline and when i least expect it, I get put online ! BaaM!! I am exposed just like that and when I was having so much fun in solo mode too. ;(

I do nothing to cause this. The only thing that is possible cause is when one of my buddies comes online (and it don't matter which buddy). I am kicked out of the offline mode and moved into Online status. What a drag. ;(

Am i really the only one who experiences this?? Really??

When I put myself offline I never got any messages.

BUT I can still see who came online. So when Im gaming I can see in the chat a message saying "This player connected to the game." I dont like this.

because those notifications are independent from buddychat/status system (they were in TMF too).

for me it stays "offline" the first few seconds after starting maniaplanet, like buddy system initialization or smth.
