In summary, forum users can earn titles such as "homework helper" or "science adviser" by consistently providing accurate information, being helpful, and maintaining a positive attitude. These titles indicate that the user can be trusted for accurate information, although mistakes can still happen and they are also rated based on their willingness to admit when they are wrong. There is also an explanation in the Physics Forums FAQ and HowTo section for more information.

I have a question regarding something I have seem on this forum. I typically post in the homework help section, and sometimes I will see someone respond to a thread and under their name will be titles such as "homework helper" "science adviser" etc. I was just wondering how one earns such a title?

They earn them from consistently accurate information, willingness to help and an overall good attitude. the badge let's you know that you can feel confident in the accuracy of the information they are giving, although no one is perfect, they are also rated by their willingness to admit when they are wrong.
