Why?? Because people are used to everyone else being set to something other than "available."
I asked someone once, why message me if I'm "not available" and they said "because I am always set to not available when I'm online so I figured you would be there too"
Sorry, I actually use the icq away messages for what they're intended. If I'm not available, don't expect me to be available.

I kinda look at it just like a voice mail message or even email. I don't expect people to be online at the same time as me. So I'll still just leave an icq message (saying whatever it is I needed) and figure they'll reply back whenever. Pretty much like an email but on icq.
I never really pay attention to whether someone is actually online or not, I just leave an icq message whenever.
But I never expect to get an instant response always figuring the person is away.
