I'd use some loose scale where the quality of the comment correlated with the amount of upvotes it got. Assuming that a user could give up to two upvotes per comment, then a funny one-liner or a moderately interesting comment would get one vote, truly insightful ones two.
p(Kaj would upvote a comment twice | he upvoted it once) would probably be somewhere around [.3, .6]
That's the scale I use. Unfortunately, my ability to (directly) influence how many upvotes it gets is limited to a plus or minus one shift.
