Makes them feel like you're coming to them, and thus they can pretend that they're special Smile

Maybe you are wininvis and they can't see you, or you are AFK, but that one doesn't make tons of sense.

Maybe it's just to show off to their friends. Same reason people post those comments on myspace instead of just leaving an email.

It's probably either you're invis, or they're very stupid. Or both.

I wasn't counting the times when I was invis, which are actually very rare.

Or because when you're online you're usually busy or not there.
More of an 'at your convenience' kind of thing.
