I see both Gold, and Silver games, and was wanting to know if there is a way for a Gold subscriber to make a server where silver can join?? My buddies don't have a 360, so they are just using silver for now.

I wouldn't know, but I'm pretty sure servers are open to all by default, and they can be restricted to gold by an option.

Well, I set my server up, and try to invite some buddies, and it asks them to upgrade, and I can't seem to find an option to turn it off anywhere.

Let there be CHAOS!

Peer-hosted servers are Gold-Only. Sucks, but that's how it is and it can't be changed.

Yes. Dedicated servers allow anyone to join (unless you specify Gold-Only, VIP, etc.).

Straight from the server readme file.

Privacy
The privacy command displays or sets the privacy settings for the server. You can allow anyone to join with open, restrict your games to LIVE Gold members only with gold, or restrict people to a list of specific gamertags with vip. For more information on setting a VIP list, see the entry on vip, following.

Example:
H2server$ privacy gold

This example sets the privacy level to LIVE Gold members only.


VIP
The vip command displays and edits the VIP gamer list. VIP gamers are the specific people you allow to play on your server, listed by gamertag. The vip command works for LIVE games and LIVE game servers only.

vip display
Displays the list of VIP gamertags.

vip add gamertag
Adds the specified gamertag to the VIP list.

vip remove gamertag
Removes the specified gamertag from the VIP list.

vip clear
Clears the VIP gamer list.


So from the looks of thing just use the tag "privacy open" without the quotation marks.

Wow, really? Doesn't surprise me actually. I wonder what else doesn't work that we haven't tried yet.
