I remembered reading way back when that they had their own accounts, and played the game, but that was a long time ago, when MxO was still very young, in a sense. in an interview with them they said they would hang around hardlines asking obscure questions to people regarding the story, or just some of the dialog. but again, that was a long time ago. have they mentioned anything about the Matrix recently? have they turned their backs in shame of MxO? or do they still jack-in every now and again?
