There appear to be two separate issues, but they may be related in
root cause. The first, which I have slightly more data on is an
interaction between "show offline group", "show groups", and the
contact visibility settings. The second, which is more important imo,
is the one where certain people mysteriously aren't visible, and
become visible again after twiddling the settings. Here's a transcript
of a discussion I had with a user who's been seeing it:
Catfish_Man: I investigated the visibility issues you were running
into some
Catfish_Man: there's some weird stuff going on there

Jmrz: the boy went for a bike ride with my sister, she was all "BLAKE
COME FOR A BIKE RIDE WITH ME" and I didn't feel like going
Jmrz: really?
Jmrz: I updated to the latest version, no more - connected: offline
Catfish_Man: oh, 1.3.1b1?
Jmrz: that confused the hell out of me - but still wacky visibility
Jmrz: yeah
Jmrz: I tell it to get the beta versions
Catfish_Man: yeah, that got fixed. Visibility is the last blocker for
1.3.1
Catfish_Man: Eric is bugging me about it 'cause he wants to release on
Tuesday
Catfish_Man: I'm seeing interactions between 'show all', 'show
offline', 'show groups', and 'show offline group'
Catfish_Man: that really don't make much sense to me

Catfish_Man: gonna try to figure it out tomorrow unless I get distracted
Jmrz: well, it doesn't make much sense to me either
Jmrz: except the weird thing is, is that it only selects certain
contacts to show when I am signed out
Jmrz: and they don't show when I am signed in
Jmrz: it's so werid
Jmrz: so far it's been blake, lunchy and heather
Catfish_Man: hmm
Catfish_Man: interesting, so it's like the online/offline-ness of them
got flipped?
Jmrz: kind of
Jmrz: let me see whether it does it when I sign out of adium and I'll
screenshot it
Catfish_Man: thanks
Jmrz: (note, it probably wont while I am trying to catch it doing it

)
Jmrz: HAH
Jmrz: IT DID
Jmrz: heather is offline when I signed off, everyone else disappeared,
all the other groups and everyone else in that group and she stayed
there

Catfish_Man: could you take a picture of the 'View' menu as well? (or
just list how you have stuff set up in the show/hide section)
Jmrz: and signing back in, heather is there, but blake is not
Jmrz: http://img367.imageshack.us/img367/1646/picture2jo3.png
Catfish_Man: ok cool; Show All, Show Groups, Don't use Offline Group
Catfish_Man: I'm getting the sinking feeling it's not even related to
that, and there's actually two issues

Jmrz: really? eek
Catfish_Man: 'cause if I set it up like yours then do the following:
Turn on the online group, turn off groups, turn off show all, turn on
show offline
Catfish_Man: then I don't see any online people
Catfish_Man: which is definitely incorrect
Catfish_Man: but not random like you're seeing

Jmrz: it's only started happening recentlys
Jmrz: since I updated to 1.3 I think
Catfish_Man: yes, it's a 1.3 regression
Catfish_Man: unfortunately that pins it down to a 7 month period >.<
Jmrz: if I sign back in and people are missing, I tell it to hide
certain contacts and then tell it to show certain contacts
Jmrz: and they come back
Catfish_Man: consistent with other reports I've seen of it
Jmrz: or re-adding them works also and you don't end up with double
contacts or anything like that
Catfish_Man: heh, yeah, there's guards against that
