Some of you may have noticed lately that new flair has been appearing for some users, and we are happy to announce that we have now implemented a rewards system for /r/Science. Flair will be awarded to individuals that make great contributions to /r/Science, whether it be thought-provoking questions or scientifically detailed explanations and discussions. Our team of moderators will be searching through comments in /r/Science, looking for outstanding contributions and awarding users for their efforts. As you continue to contribute and earn rewards, the number and style of your flair will automatically update. You will also receive a PM, notifying you of the comment that we thought deserved special recognition.
Want to get more involved with /r/Science beyond the rewards program? Verify your degree with our moderators by getting your account flaired with your appropriate title. Instructions for obtaining flair are here: reddit Science Flair Instructions (Flair is automatically synced with /r/EverythingScience as well.)
We know that not everyone wants to verify their degree with /r/Science or may not have a degree in the sciences at all! Having a particular degree should never be a barrier to discussing science, and so we were motivated in part to implement this reward system so users can gain credibility without necessitating verification of your degree.
