That is what I believe.  The FICS server handles the default vars.
Probably, the simplest way to handle this is to not have the variables set
at startup (gin, seek, and silence).  Rather just set the variables to 1 or
0  when the user toggles the checkbox.  This way, the user setting will be
saved on the FICS server the next time they log in and their settings will
only change when they toggle the checkbox.
