Hi Could someone please help me understand this. I had the problem shown in the FAQ under 1.25 "Where did my buddy go? I just tried to change its group and it disappeared!"
The answer given is "You inadvertently created a contact from two buddies". I can confirm that this is what happened. The two buddies are now combined into one. I cannot understand what this is for or why it would be useful. I know what a buddy is, but I don't know what a "contact" is. This term is not defined in the FAQ. Anyway, the FAQ says I can undo this by expanding the contact and dragging the buddy out again. I cannot do this. After I expand, dragging is not enabled. The only way I can correct it is to delete the contact completely and start again from scratch. The whole thing seems very problematic. It is all too easy to make the mistake of creating a "contact" out of two buddies. An inexperienced user will become confused and think the buddy has disappeared. Even if the user expands the contact to see the buddy, it seems to be impossible to drag it out again. Could someone please help with a bit of clarification.
