Hello,
this is normal. It is caused by the way how Messenger implements presence.
If you sign in then your Messenger tries to subscribe to the presence of all users on your buddy list. For users which are currently online the subscription succeeds and your Messenger will get presence updates in real time.
If one of them is offline then the subscription fails and Messenger tries to resubscribe later. During that period of time you will see your buddy offline even if it signs up. You will see him online once your Messenger tries to subscribe again and the subscription succeeds.
