I was awarded the tumbleweed badge for the question linked below (thanks a bunch for all your help guys !)

PYTHON Set outline color for a barplot

My question is, if someone now comes along and answers it, would I lose the tumbleweed badge ?

Another badge you could potentially lose is Unsung Hero for example.

  • Apropos to the question, one bit of advice, please don’t tag titles like you have with “PYTHON Set outline color for a barplot.” The system handles the tags you sometimes see by combining the title with your selected tags. Also it honestly doesn’t make you seem competent to TYPE IN ALL CAPS like that. I adjusted the title to be an actual question, “How can I set the outline color for a barplot in Python?”

Regular system type badges, such as Tumbleweed, Unsung, etc, once earned, stay on your profile. If you no longer meet the criteria, you don't lose them.

But if you later on do meet the criteria, you don't get them again, they'll just be credited from the first time you got them.

Tag based badges, those you get for reputation say in answering linux or printer questions, you can lose if you no longer meet the requirements, the tag is removed or merged (in those cases they may be transferred).
