The buddy list is broken

Options
Is anybody else seeing this? :-

If you decide to add:-

SomeUserName

to your buddy list (note the presence of some capitals)


I get an error message saying:-

someusername is not on the members list.

Note the ABSENCE of capitals!

So of course they can't find the member.

    As my buddy list has been wiped in the change over I just tried to add a few people, one of which is Glad.

    Now Glad used to be glad and when I added Glad, it reverted to her user name of glad and won't add Glad.

    I bet your glad I told you all that :D

    I assume if someone tries to add me you'll find the same thing happening :o
