Posts: 828 | I wont flame you. I am 31 and play all the time on live. My younger brother and newphew just recently got their 360's and are both 11 years old. I gave them pretty much the same advice you've mentioned above. It just seems though that as a kid its hard for them to know how to take a joke from a adult, or respond to inuendo as well etc. Sometimes they think people are complimenting them but are actually sarcastically taking the piss out of them.
So I advise them to keep a low profile as well, and refrain from excess chatter as well.
I must admit, it must be hard for a kid on XBL to build up a good rep, with minimal talking going on. I always advise my brother to give people good rep if they've been a good person to play with, and they often always do the same back.
Live is for everyone and all people on live need to understand that. Also, select your group wisely as well. If you choose underground and your a kid, you will pair up with a different bunch of people. For instance, both my brother and nephew are set to Family. I am set to Pro. I've heard when online it tries to match categories of people based on their selections.
