When I was a kid I desoldered and removed or filled the on-card speakers of every modem I had with silicone. I used to stay up all night on the internet during the week when I was supposed to be asleep; I'd need to redial and those drat things would blow my cover and wake my parents up and they'd get pissed off!

ATM0 dude. ATM0.

More like Prodigy. Prodigy had games (which it seems the Mutiny coders are big on) and also had a deal for subscribers to get a modem when you signed up, if I remember correctly.


I would say closer to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantum_Link and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Habitat_(video_game)

Which started life as a C64 dial up network sold by the hour....and eventually morphed into AOL.
