What if you get a point for rating a game, then you can comment with at least, say, 30 characters, and get an extra point?

That's a good idea. But some people will insist that it will open the gateway to trolls.

Some people use their comments to just vent their opinions on the genre of a story, instead of story quality.  So...my vote would have to be not to reward such behavior.  On the other hand, it would be nice to be able to reward someone a point for a particularly helpful comment (positive or negative criticism) out of your own point pool.

Easily manipulated as well.

I think it'd just make sense to ask an admin/mod to feature a comment you really like :P

It looks like you only get points for a Featured Comment if an admin manually adds them.

I wonder if a comment is worth featuring if it is just helpful criticism, benefiting only the author and not potential readers.
