How does that work?
Basically, logged in users get randomly selected to pick from a menu of options like "informative", "insightful", "off-topic" etc. Each selection gives a +1 or a -1 to the comment. Users can set filters so that they only see comments at or above a certain score, and troll comments are quickly buried.
You only get assigned a few points, and, to quote the slashdot FAQ, it's like jury duty - you don't know when you'll get selected and you don't know how long it will last.
See the sections on Moderation and Metamoderation as well as the later section on karma.

The down side is that I don't know how amenable the system Jeff's using would be to the implementation of the code.
Might require a whole lotta work.
