Maybe upvotes on Discussion-level posts should get more karma than a comment. Perhaps something like 3-5 karma per upvote.

It is always frustrating to see a good comment on your Discussion level post receive more karma than your post itself. A decent Discussion-level post is at least an hour's worth of work; a good comment is more like 10 mins. The person who steps up and sets the stage should be rewarded.
