There's probably no Squad Member that is as universally respected on the site as long-time contributor and homie @ControlledXaos.
Not only is he a high volume poster who adds tons of comments and daps to many threads, he's a consistently positive balance to the more polarizing members (such as myself) who like to push buttons for debate.
On top of that, he's a site donation supporter, a rare inductee into the 1,000 Daps Club and he often interacts with Squad Members off of Cypher Avenue...be it at @African King Organized Cypher Avenue Meet-Ups or online gaming battles with the likes of @Ockydub, he takes the brotherhood here seriously.
@ControlledXaos, as Squad Member of the Month, you don't actually win anything...but as a lover of both the culinary arts and sexy beefy men, here are some photos showing the best of both worlds:
Oh, and also a few celebratory dapping gifs:

It should come as no surprise that @African King has bowled through the competition to be named the first Squad Member of the Month for 2016.
Not only has he been an active Squad Leader on the The Boards, creating over 60 new topics and threads for discussion, he's been active offline as well. @African King has helped bring Cypher Avenue members together offline through Google Hangouts and collective meetups in person.
He's come a long way in his personal journey as well. Here's an except from one of the very first (of what would turn out to be very many) emails from him back in early 2013:
@African King, as Squad Member of the Month, you don't actually win anything except some photos of a few Sexy Nigerian Men:

No other Cypher Avenue Freshman Class inductee has embraced the site and this community more than the Squad Member of the Month for February 2016, @cypher21.
Let's rundown some of his Greatest Hits: He not only incorporated the name of the site into his screen name, at one point went a step further by superimposing the CA logo into his real Face Pic Avatar. Boss.
On top of that, he's unafraid to start new threads and ask other members questions... He often adds to other Squad Member's new threads with long, detailed, substantive responses (often with photos included)... And so far he's the only new Squad Member to join the 1,000 DAPS CLUB.
@cypher21, as Squad Member of the Month, you don't actually win anything except permission to respond with this Aretha Franklin level Shade towards Patti LaBelle if anyone stands in your way from accepting this honor:

Big shout out to the lil homie @@DreG for being the highest posting squad member with twice as many Daps as anyone else in the Month since the birth of The Boards.
( Runners Up: @African King and @Naturally10Me )

Wow I am so shocked! I don't have any words but I am grateful!
I am grateful for a space like Cypher Avenue where I can have a voice and I have grown so much. I am glad that you and @ockydub have been patient with me because I know we've gotten into a few times lol but it is still all love.
I hope that Cypher Avenue will continue to evolve in 2016 and I do want to keep establishing more friendships with members online and offline. Hey.... maybe even a relationship lmbo! Who knows?
I still don't know if I have covered everything I wanted to say but I gotta give a big shoutout to those who have been my Cypher Avenue ryde or dies since 2014: @SB3, @DreG, @Michael, @JNH412, @KritiKal Analysis, @dc, @ControlledXaos, @questforknowledge! And to those I've met in 2015, you know who you are! Let's keep growing and supporting each other as Black Gay/Bi Men in This Thing Called Life!!! HOLLA!
Cheers!!!! *takes bow and leaves the stage with heavy-@$$ award*
P.S. Thanks for all the fine Nigerian male specimens!!! hahaha
P.S.S. Any one on here who wants to reach out to just "shoot the shit" as my boy @JNH412 would say, don't hesitate to do so! Open to making new connections all over the world!Tyroc, questforknowledge, NickAuzenneNOLA and 4 others dapped this. -

@cypher21 congrats on this new feat. You made 1000 daps even before a veteran hahaha! I'm proud of you. Through many of our interactions on the threads and our private convos through private message and via phone I know you will continue to grow and be more comfortable in your own skin! CHEERS!

Okay, I'm leaving Ock and Nick out of all categories cause: Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak. Now for the other geniuses:
1. Everyone on the Board (there's no I in TEAM...unless you're French---équipe---there's an I, but your team probably surrendered)
2. Once again, everyone else. I'm verbose, but I hate reading my own shit.
3. @Cyrus-Brooks @ControlledXaos @NikR @BlackguyExecutive @alton @mojoreece usually top the charts in responses that catch my eye
4. @DreG, @SB3 - the younger brothers I wish I had grew up with...would have been plenty of ass whuppins and time outs but would have been totally worth it.
5. @alton - Straight to the point and always sums it up nicely...plus can dismiss bullshit with a modicum of words
6. On the Sixth, we plead the Fifth...
7. @Sean --- he wins this category as he's the only person from CA I've met in person, so you've got no competition in this category bro (lol). But for those of you who are looking, he's tall, dark, handsome, owns his own business...discuss among yourselves....
8. @African King lol --- not really. Just some of us are now older and we confuse Normal Twenty-Something libido with Thirst. "He Ain't Thirsty, He's My Brother"
9. Every squad member under 35. Plus, unlike Kmart ad writers, they know how to pronounce GIF...

Creeping in the shadows since the Discreet City days, Squad Member @bpaisle finally shed his Lurker status throughout the month of November.
Not only did he actively engage in Cyphers, he built camaraderie with others, donated to help support the site and (last but not least) he started second most viewed thread on The Boards, the Official Face Pic Thread.
@bpaisle, as Squad Member of the Month, you don't win anything except the exclusive opportunity to see @Nick Delmacy's real face pic:
Hey Guuuurl! Congrats! Werk, Bitch!

While the number of comments and daps don't solely determine who becomes the Squad Member of the Month, @SB3 has skyrocketed in both categories in just 30 days.
In addition to adding both substantive and comedic commentary to many threads on The Boards, @SB3 also helps to encourage others to contribute their opinions as well.
@SB3, You don't win anything except @Nick Delmacy's personal cell phone number:
