I'm sorry, I don't quite understand that. Can you try and rephrase it?

About the "idle time" question: That's correct, users' idle times are only known by the servers where they are connected to. Therefore, if you try to /whois a user which aren't on the same server as yours, you'll not get the idle time information, because the WHOIS request is sent to the local server. But /whois <nick> <nick> will be forwarded to the server <nick> is on. This is called remote whois request.
