• Regular flair| is given out sporadically for answers we especially like. It's fairly common.
• [Flair of shame](#userflairl userflair-shamel)| is very occasionally given out to people who suck. Not often seen these days. NOT to be considered a mark of honor, OR ELSE.
• [Golden flair](#userflairl userflair-goldl)| is given out to five people who won in the annual 'bestof' events. It has been awarded in 2012, 2013, and 2014.
• [Flair of quality](#userflairl userflair-qualityl)| is awarded to people who regularly post flairworthy responses. Said flair may be taken away if a user becomes inactive.
• Finally, [gilded flair](#userflairl userflair-gildedl) denotes a person who has received reddit gold for one or more of their responses, and who the mods consider to have deserved said gold. It does not fade. It can also be mixed with [other](#userflairl userflair-gildedl userflair-shamel) [flair](#userflairl userflair-gildedl userflair-goldl) [types](#userflairl userflair-gildedl userflair-qualityl).

If you use this, some (but not all) flair will link to the comment or post that earned it.
