in reply to /away CB command?


Naturally, once you log on again, your status is *not* away

Unless of course god decides that there should be an option on users' home pages to allow users to automatically be logged on as "away" in the chatterbox. That way people like me (who rarely use the chatterbox) wouldn't have to specify that we're not going to be using the chatterbox today. We can just specify those days we will use it by setting /away off :-)

Good suggestion,
