It takes a lot of years worth of hard work and selfless volunteering on sites like this (and others) in order to receive an MVP award. It's something that all of us are very proud of, and don't take for granted. It's not a prize to be won. You cannot nominate yourself. You are nominated by current MVPs, and your contributions over the preceding year are measured against current MVPs by the Microsoft staff.
If you're interested in attaining something like this one day, why not consider joining GeekU.
this is pretty informative

thx againI was active in these types of forums for over three years before I became an MVP.
Yes, you can join GeekU at 17. We've had Experts in the past who were even younger than you. Age has nothing to do with your ability to work on Malware.

It's only for a year that you have the award, then you have to stop presenting yourself as a MVP according to Micro$oft's policy:

You are correct that the award is for one year at a time. However, many people are re-awarded every year on their award date. The award dates are Jan 1, April 1, July 1 and Oct 1.
