Can not write messages

This is on the 360. Can I write the messages online and the message can be read on friends consoles?

AAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHA damn dude. I didn't even peep that. Well yea, no gold, no messages.

Well, its kind of hard to explain. But it's further into the game. In a place called the undead burg. You'll know the place when you get to it as the words UNDEAD BURG will cover the entire damn screen when you get there. But the merchant is hidden. When
you get to the first bon fire in the undead burg, your close to the merchant, but he's hidden. When you get to the bon fire. There's two skeletons wielding a large shield and a spear standing next to each other some where in the area, with stairs behind them
leading to the merchant.You need to defeat the both of them to get to the merchant as there some stairs with some boxes covering up the stairs, so you wouldnt even know there is stairs there unless you break the boxes. The skeletons with the shields and spears
play defensively, Hacking and slashing them will get you killed VERY QUICK.

You will also need Xbox LIVE Gold to be able to read other players messages and rate them.

got gold lol, can see other peoples messages but cannot rate them or write my own, Understood the first comment will let him know where the merchant is... thank you.
