There seems to be an issue with the buddy list of some members. I've been buddies with Absol and we added each other again when the new forums got live. I still have this circle next to the square indicating his online status. However, our profiles indicate that we don't have any buddies:I haven't added my buddies yet.
Also, the button to send a buddy request to Absol is missing for me while it shows up at every other member's page.Never mind. Seems to be fixed or even not a bug at all. Absol just send me a request, I approved and everything seems to be back to normal.
