If my AIM auto-reconnects fast enough, will it say that i’ve been online without being ever disconnected. For example, if i was online(but away) for 10 hours but disconnected for a few seconds after the 5th hour, will it say i was never offline? Thx.

Generally, your online time will be reset every time you disconnect, no matter the duration.
