Now Open! The A6/S6/RS6/allroad Tech subforum, only for our Active Members.

[Anthony]

The completely overhauled and rethought Tech Subforums are for the hardcore hands-on wrenchers, and will be free of Noobs, Trolls, and Flaming. This section is for the open and insightful discussion of technical talk which may be too advanced for your average Audi owner.

Further details about what it will take to participate in this new forum section can be found within my recent Blog Entries, snippets of which are below.

...Another important factor is maturity and one's ability to be friendly and follow the rules. As you may or may not know, we hand out Official Warnings and Infractions when a member breaks the posted Audizine Rules & Guidelines. These Infraction Points add up and lead to suspensions, or eventually, a permanent ban. A permaban comes at 4 points, but when/if someone receives 2 points then they will be demoted/unavailable to climb the ranks and achieve the extra perks that these new account levels will bring.

These new account permissions will include things like extra PM space, extra Gallery storage, the ability to upload more ads to the Classifieds, and (last but not least) access to special new forums. Restricting access to specific account levels from certain forums should make for more on-topic discussion free from Noobs, Trolls, and Flamefests... MORE

The criteria clearly states 5 years. You will have 4 years in September.

[4ringAR]

wow, reading comprehension fail. I thought it said 2-years.(Excuses: I did get below the 30-percentile on the reading part of the ACT back in high school, and i was reading this at 2am.)

not that it really matters, but I was a member a few months before my profile says I was, but that account got deleted in the "crash" of 06.

[JohnTC]

This came at a perfect time. I am moving back home to NJ May 1 and will finally have a garage. I can't wait to start turning the wrenches.

It is what you make of it, so long as it's not OT Chatterbox material.

[A4edwin]

[Despized]

Nice work!

[cbock]

No, we'll leave that up to the OPs.

We can't actually move the threads tho, can we?! It's not only about the OP, but, the discussion that goes along with it.

It will be soon. Senior Members and above will be able to move and lock their own threads.

Oh wow! OK. It will be interesting to see how that works out! I'm glad you're continuing to change things up. Hopefully, it grows the board in the right direction.

If the op lets me know I will be happy to move any thread you want :)
