Found this on Yahoo!

"When you make a new Xbox Live account and do not sign up for Gold right away, Microsoft gives you one free month of Gold as opposed to the silver membership you would have. After the free one month is over you are automatically reverted back to your Silver membership and CANNOT play online multiplayer games."

 

I've been live for a couple years, don't see anything with codes to give to friends, OTW I'd help you out. If you use stolen codes, supposedly they'll ban you. No idea if that's true tho.

I just got an Xbox for Christmas, and we got one of the more deluxe editions, so we got one free month of Xbox Live Gold. . . and we didn't use it once. :|

So you have to pay more to play games online?

 

Well that sounds pretty lame yet oh so typical of Microsoft

Not really, you pay more to play and chat with your friends online. if you and I had the same game... Madden, Rockband, Modern Warfare, etc... We can 'friend' each other, and play that game simultaneously with each other, and talk during, if we'd like (handy during some games). It's actually pretty cool. Makes it more fun.

So basically, you pay to use multiplayer functions, yes?

If you and I were in the same room, we could play all day without the subscription, but otherwise yes. What I enjoy, is you and I could play together, even tho I'm in the US and you Austrailia. If you make your character run left, on my screen here, I'll see your player run left. Or in RB, if Im playing drums, you see my character playing drums on your end. Im not a huge gamer, but I've found a lot of games much more enjoyable playing with all sorts of people all over the world. You can play with a friend, or opt to play with anyone else around the world that wants to play with someone else at that time.

Which is what I meant in the first post... second post was worded horribly.

Anyway, those features were free at one point, which is what I find disappointing. That's all I'm saying.

That's why I don't feel the need to renew the Gold membership.

I've only been on live for the last five years; has always been pay for me.

I'd be disappointed too if I used to have the functionality for free! Generally I troll for the best gold live deals, and can usually find them for around $30 a few times a year.

Don't use stolen codes as Microsoft will ban your machine from Live
