@reaper.

 

It is an honor to receive this from PANW.

 

 I know we are all a hard working community, and we have relied on each other to keep fact checking and integrity.  I

I certainly know that i have learned from you (Reaper) in how your comments and replies are highly accurate as well.

Maybe next year, we can share. 

 

For now, I claim  this for ALL the hard working community members. 

This is our award, and we all deserve it.

This is pretty cool! What are the rule to join  @crasmussen ?

Do you start to count exactly from January 1st or some other time, is there a scoreboard where you can check your status, are members handpicked or is it "king of the hill" style top 6 wins, are there disqualifying factors (do I need to be on my company account or can I participate as a "free" user?),  are members displaced each year or new members added?

@AdeptusAstartes - Thanks for your note and inquiry!  We are very excited to be able to recognize our most engaged Customer and Partner community members. I wanted to point you to a great resource that should answer most of your questions about the program - The Cyber Elite Program page

I would also recommend looking at the Cyber Elite member profiles that we have highlighted to give you an idea of the type of engagement and value they provide to the entire community.

I hope this information is helpful, thank you for engaging and please reach out to us with any additional questions:
