    Help with privacy settings please


    My son has an XBox Live account for the 360. We have his privacy settings so that only friends can view his info. However, I have noticed that when he is playing in friends' games and they invite in their friends, who are not mutual friends with
    my son, that those people now show up in his "friends" page, in the last column (the one with the controller symbol) . Is there a way to remove those people from that list?

    Also, what do the settings need to be in order to prevent friends from inviting non-mutual friends into a game that is being hosted under my son's profile? Or is this not possible? He was playing with a friend, who invited one of their friends in,
    but we only want him to be able to play with people we have approved for his friends list.

    Thanks for your help, we are new to this whole online gaming experience!

    :)

    When you go into privacy and online settings on xbox.com you should see a section like this

    Change your settings to how you want them and save it. The settings can sometimes take some time to change on the console so wait a bit before checking to see if the settings changed.

    Help with privacy settings please

    hello

    ok well now the friends page is what I'm thinking you are talking about at the bottom, ok he would have to send an friend request to them or he accepts others. now the ones with the controller symbol is people you have meet online, now they are not friends
    that is to go to that if your son wanted to send a friend request and did not when he was in an online lobby. (they automatically roll off or different people get on that list. they are not able to see his info/ profile. now the party's are invite only so
    your son or his friends can invite other friends, now you can mute or block communications with the people you dont know, were it will stop him people he does not know not able to join again. you can also use the private chat function and only that friend
    and you would be able to talk with each other. now if your son has a party open and does not have anyone in it, only one friend can join the party with out having an invite.

    hope that helpsHelp with privacy settings please :) and relax if one person is a mean person you can block communications or mute

    Privacy Settings help please?

    I went through the link and I have set "Profile Sharing" to 'Everyone' just like it it says, and it's suppose to show up my name, bio, motto, etc to Everyone. But it's still not. =S

    I have the privacy settings set exactly the way. here's a print screen :S

    And it says If i set "Profile Sharing" to 'Everyone", it should show my name, bio and motto.

    Is this some sort of a bug in Xbox.com? =S
