Fed Up, Up, and Away

Is the concept of an "away message" so hard for people to understand? My blind rage at people who can't manage to set one when they leave the computer and sit on IRC for eight hours is well documented, so that's not why I'm annoyed. THIS time.

When someone has set an away message, saying they are not at the machine, why would you continue to message them as if they were? And asking if they are there? Is "I am not at my computer" not clear enough for these fuckwits? Or do the brilliantly stupid people just somehow consistently find ME?

Raaah...
