A Clone of Scoop's karma system. Those looking for alternatives or an official release may want to consider the User Karma module.

Karma is a comment rating and community participation system to try to keep the comments as high-quality as possible. When your comments are rated by others, those ratings are combined into a weighted average -- newer comments count more than older ones -- called your "Karma". This, roughly, represents the rating you could expect your next comment to receive based on your past comments. Users who have a karma greater than a certain minimum and who have posted a sufficient number of comments are considered "trusted" users, and have the added capability to rate comments below the normal minimum rating. If enough of a user's comments are rated below 1, that user becomes "untrusted", which means that respected members of the community have repeatedly indicated that the user's input is offensive, content-free, or merely intended to annoy others. Said comments no longer appear for anonymous and regular users. Only trusted users can view them.

Note: Both the 4.7 and 5 dev release of Karma do not properly filter out comments below the minimum threshold, unless a modification is made to a core module. (See: http://drupal.org/node/100266) Download at your own risk. This will not be a problem for the Drupal 6 release.
