My Friend shows "logged off" when I go to invite him

I got asked by someone to invite them to the "Mission 9-3 The King of Ashes" lobby. I'm a vanguard and he's an elite knight in ranking. So I went to lobby and invited him by chat "/invite (username)" and it said he was logged out; "that user is not currently online." I thought, "ah well, he just ditched me and left." and went back to the haven I was in but ran right into him in the same spot i left him. He suggested to become friends and see if that does anything, so I go back after that and it shows him even in social as logged out, but he can whisper to me, though I can't back until I get back to haven where it shows in social that he's not logged in. I told him sorry but I didn't know what was going on, he said it was fine and moved on. A few min. later he does whisper me and tells me that he was able to get invited just fine by someone else. So was this bug just random, or maybe me? Note I did try inviting him by way of clicking on his name in social and the invite feature in social, neither worked. As well as changed the option in party opening to friends, full open, friends and guild, and this didn't change anything.

PS: I did send a in-game report "f2" but I know you normally don't answer the player from that I was curious about what you guys thought, if this was just a random thing or maybe it really was me? Or maybe the gremlins are taking it up a notch to hinder us knights from getting to the core?

Thanks for your time,

Made me laugh. Thank you.

This is really weird...did you have him try to join you instead of you inviting him? Did both of you try to log out and then back in?

Ty for liking my sense of humor...

At the time it didn't progress enough to think about rebooting, and since his goal was more just wanting to get to the lobby I didn't want to drag him along while trying to figure it out after he said he'd just look for someone else to take him. I did ask if he could join me during one of the attempts and he said he couldn't but didn't go into more detail so I'm not sure what his screen was showing him. Though I did try out of curiosity while he was doing the fsc run at the time I went back to a lobby and to see if it worked then and when I got there it showed him as in a haven but there was no option to invite him in social. I wasn't going to bother him anymore with it since he was already on his run so I left it at that, but it was rather strange.

Okay, thanks. If anyone ever mentions it in Haven or to me, I'll try the log out/log in thing.

Now that I think about it...it seems that I've had this happen to me in the past...
