get older. lol, jk.

there appears to be no way to use the messenger unless you're over the ESRB age limit. which is pretty lame. only way to use it would be to make a new silver account with a fake DOB.

I'm sorry, I'd rather not do that. I happen to have this thing called dignity of which you are obviously devoid.

If you're really bent on faking your age, just make another silver account, make that your main account and upgrade it to gold(if you still have your trial)

OK thanks for that, ***Lack of messenger and talking to friends unless playing the same game*** poor xbox ports for most multiplatform games poor online community/support

I don't know i had a child account that was set at the age of 1993 and i upgraded it to adult with my moms visa (With her permission of course because I'm only 15)

Though the account was set under my email address which could have been 1990 or so, so i really don't know. My suggestion to you is upgrade your account and if you don't see that option then wait until your older or make a new account.

as long as the one month isnt up, you can create another account and make it gold. I have two accounts. Both gold, both using the trial.

No im sure i do, i would just rather have the full use of my Xbox regardless of my age
