My daughter's account is linked to mine and I've turned on the parental controls. This means that she can only say things that are in the list of child approved words (forget what this is called). But my concern was that she would still be able to read what an unrestricted character is saying. Is that true? Or does it filter that for her as well (that'd be great).

Also, does anyone know if you can disable friend requests in the parental controls? I'd like to have manual control of that so I can turn it off completely 90% of the time and then only turn it back on when she tells me she has a friend from school or something that she wants to add. That would be great as well.

If you have parental controls on the account, they are highly restricted to words in the dictionary. I strongly recommend this for youths due to the restrictions on their chat and if they use a word out of the dictionary, we get an Arrr. Unfortunately at this time I dont think theres a way to turn off Friends requests.

To answer your other question. If I say something in local and I dont have the + sign when I type it, she cant hear/see it. If we say it in local and have the plus sign, the chat is restricted to words in the dictionary and she will be able to see/read it. Crew chat and guild chat is different. They can see/read anything even with the + sign gone. (I need to double check on that but I think thats how it is).

Thanks for the informative reply. I've seen several posts in the forum that mention the plus sign. But I'm having some difficulty visualizing what it is and how it works. Are you saying that you can simply type a plus sign in the chat window and then it bypasses the parental controls and lets the children see the local message? Or is it something else?

Thanks,

Michael
