Hat Tip to the SAS Support Communities Super Users
The SAS Support Communities are only as strong as our members. And we're proud to say that we have some pretty outstanding members.
The SAS Support Communities Super User program recognizes the strongest members for their outstanding contributions. In addition to the public honor of the "Super User" designation, inductees are given tools that help them to expand their community leadership. We hope this helps them get even more out of their community experience. Certainly, their actions help the rest of us in the community as well.
What's so special about being a Super User?
- Super Users are publicly honored with a special rank icon that appears on their community avatar
- They have access to a private "Super Users" forum, where they can confer with their fellow "supers" and the SAS community managers.
- They are invited to "Super Users"-only meetings with SAS staff, where they get the inside scoop on SAS communities and other SAS goings-on.
- They enjoy more weight from the "Likes" that their posts receive.
- They receive some special abilities, such as moving stray posts to the proper board and marking spam.
How are Super Users selected?
SAS communities managers select the Super Users based on their demonstrated behavior in the community. Which behaviors are most valued for this elite group? There isn't a single ranking formula, but we look at:
- Time spent in the community
- Quantity and quality of posts
- Accepted Solutions, as determined by the members who ask questions in the forums
- "Likes" received on posts, indicating helpful or interesting posts
- Leadership behaviors, such as advising new community members how to ask questions effectively and post to the most appropriate areas.
How long are these users "Super"?
- The "Super User" designation has a one-year term, beginning in 2019.
- Every year, the SAS communities managers will identify and invite a new set of Super Users.
- Super Users can repeat: if you've been a Super User once, you could be a Super User again. Keep up the great work!
