For reference, here's the original request in GNOME's Bugzilla to *always* show Favorites:
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=592595 I dislike this behavior too, but it kinda makes sense I guess, since if you don't want to see offline Favorites you could always just create a group of your own called "Starred" or something. ** Bug watch added: GNOME Bug Tracker #592595 https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=592595 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/772169 Title: Favorite contacts always appear even when offline To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/empathy/+bug/772169/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
