[ The History of MOD ]

BOOK TWO: Creative Mindz
|
|
|
|
With the addition of The Wing, came a shitload of pranks and loads of fun.
|
|
He hadn't known much about telephone systems, but one thing he knew was
|
|
how to make Unixes do nifty things. Of course, he and Scorpion had
|
|
undertaken the task of taking on some worthwhile projects and providing
|
|
the group with some healthy side-benefits (which cannot be mentioned or
|
|
commented on at this particular moment in time).
|
|
|
|
At this point, the group consisted of the 4 original founders (flounders??)
|
|
-> Acid Phreak, HAC, Scorpion, and The Wing.
|
|
|
|
Around this time, 2600 Magazine had 2 boards in operation. The Central
|
|
Office, and The Toll Center. OSUNY had gone down for some strange reason
|
|
a short time earlier. It was on The Toll Center (Red Knight's bbs) that
|
|
AP had first met the next member of the group (and coincidentally Red
|
|
Knight which is the most recent member to the group). He called himself
|
|
"Supernigger" and had much the same ideology as the rest of the group.
|
|
It was following his group's original "knock down those who think they
|
|
know everything" attitude that MOD also adopted the same mentality.
|
|
Supernigger was drafted and with him came hours of discussions on
|
|
REAL phreaking and Social Engineering. There was also a loooong period
|
|
of time where MOD had a conference bridge set up by SN. Hours of
|
|
enjoyment and fun for the whole family and kids of all ages...
|
|
|
|
Another hacker and telco computer specialist also seemed to be very
|
|
prominent and knowledgeable then as well. He wasn't liked very much
|
|
because he seemed to have a rather large ego, which I may add, makes
|
|
it okay to have when you know so much as he did. He went by two
|
|
other handles a long time before, and when AP had first called him up
|
|
he had an idea he was also those 2 other people, but he had refused
|
|
to admit so. He declared he was "Phiber Optik of the LOD!" and asked
|
|
what AP wanted. Scorpion, Acid and Phiber exchanged ideas on switching
|
|
theory for a long while, but then came the time when PO wanted to know
|
|
Acid Phreak's phone number since he found it "unfair". AP mentioned
|
|
that he could prove himself by finding it for himself. Armed with a
|
|
dialup, PO called Acid back on his real number and casually proclaimed
|
|
victory. And so, Phiber Optik was "brought into" the group. What was
|
|
different however, was the fact that he and AP had similar interests and
|
|
started "hanging" as friends "around the way" along with HAC and Scorpion
|
|
in the Village (NYC).
|
|
|
|
The Toll Center went down weeks later and PO, AP, and Scorpion found
|
|
themselves calling random "newjacks" to the scene. In this way they
|
|
stumbled across Crazy Eddie and a "question and answer forum" among the
|
|
four of them ensued with Crazy Eddie proclaiming his eagerness to learn.
|
|
Coincidentally after a few calls to CE on his home line he challenged
|
|
the MOD crew to find his other number. Sure enough they called it
|
|
but coincidentally enough, a few days later in the week, a rather nasal
|
|
sounding man had called him saying he was ITT security(?) and had tried to
|
|
convince him he was in deep shit for using codes and that he knows the
|
|
"numbers of the hackers that have been calling" him. In a rather idiotic
|
|
fashion, the ITT person attempted to coax the 3 MOD members to call him
|
|
using 10488 (equal access, fgd). He gave a bullshit number to where he
|
|
was at and waited by his little thermal printer for the phone numbers to
|
|
pop up. Of course, they realized what a futile attempt to catch them this
|
|
was, and Crazy Eddie had replied that "they say they don't feel like using
|
|
equal access but they'll call the number anyway". It turns out the number
|
|
wasn't even real and after meeting with the ITT man on a loop he declared
|
|
that they were smarter than he thought.
|
|
|
|
After a few months, Crazy Eddie was introduced to the group and so, he
|
|
had gotten to know the group very well. Unfortunately, so had the
|
|
Secret Service...
