You are talking about PIZZICATO, the act of plucking the strings of a stringed instrument. It creates a more muffled sound, because the string vibrates but not for long due to the short plucks versus the sliding of the bow.

Will the strings on banjo get loose or tight when you pluck it?

I would say loose. When you pluck a string, it goes sideways. Then it vibrates, meaning it then goes to the other side and back and so forth. After a while, you must tune it again, meaning it is now out of place from before. So I don't know if I'm right, but I think it gets loose. Hope this helps!
