NVPs, MVPs, and Official Experts

The above points are calculated every three months, and up to 10 members with the highest points are selected as MVPs. The ten highest scoring members who have not yet received an MVP award are recognized as New Valuable Players (NVPs).

If we determine that content or behavior of a post is not consistent with the scope of MVP/NVP, even if it is higher in points, it may be disqualified from the MVP/NVP rankings. Please refer to the Posting and Behavioral Guidelines.

MVPs will receive an exclusive trophy. An MVP badge icon will appear on MVP users’ posts and profiles. The MVP badge icon will show the year and season of the award. Each badge is only given to the winners of that season.

In addition, receiving the MVP award qualifies users for becoming certified as an official Clip Studio Official Expert. Once certified as an Official Expert, users will be able to directly communicate with CLIP STUDIO's official moderators and will be able to respond to wider range of posts similar to an official position. Official Experts even have the chance of being consulted about upcoming services and products. An Official Expert badge icon will appear on posts and profile page. The Official Expert badge icon will show the year and season of certification. Users can only receive the same badge during that season.
