View submission: Announcement: New Rules, Guidelines and Flair System
It's relatively hard to convince people that, say, you have a PhD in the subject unless you consistently give answers of the quality one would expect from someone who has a PhD in the subject. My impression is that flairs are not awarded for life: they can be taken away if there's reason to believe someone lied. And it's not easy to keep up a lie.

OK, makes sense.
