Have a look at:
http://slashdot.org/...2/05/12/220250.shtml?
It's the Score column beside each post. They also allow you to apply attributes to a post. It works quite well, you set your settings to say 2, and then when your reading slashdot, you eliminate 80% of the crap. Also, they have it setup so authenticated users start at a score of 1, and anonymous users start at a score of 0.
There are limits to prevent abuse. I don't know the details of what all the checks and balances are.
This is something I'd like to see personally, as I think it's a pretty good system. I don't know if it's something we would do unless it was a custom project.
Cheers,
Alex
