Hi All!
just wanted to say hello from a fellow RS6 owner in the ass end of the world so to speak!
Ive been a long time viewer but as I am about to undertake a project build on my RS6 I thought it a good idea to join, say hello, post my progress and also ask your opinions/expertise on certain things also
Ciao and god bless!

<beep> Off N00d was first used on here (by me), it later got more usage when I abbreviated it. It isn't meant to be taken seriously but it's really just there to point out one entirely true fact, they are a n00b (newbie etc) due to their post count of 1. As long as another user gets in quickly with a FON on said n00bs first post, other users may pile on the FON at ground zero. The beauty of this rule is that it ignores everything else, the n00b could post the most amazinglying insightful take on Audis, the car industry or even answer the meaning of life, the correct response is FON due their post count of 1. Even if Walter Röhrl signed up right now to RS246 and made his first post, he'd get a FON, why? Post count equals 1, even though, clearly, he ain't a n00b.

What's worrying Mr Bam is that coming from you, it almost seems acceptable!

Yeah... almost. I do admit that I am rough around the edges and maybe, just maybe, I need to work on my 'charm' a little bit. But as you've discovered, my logic is almost faultless.
