These two parameters are easily manipulated, so I think it's best not to include them in the calculations. I particularly liked points 3 and 5.
I'm not sure downzapping bad content is anymore manipulable than zapping good content and I think we need to incentivize it.
You're probably right about my specific suggestion regarding referrals, but there might be something in that vein that would work.

The issue I see with downzapping is that you might not actually be downvoting bad content, but rather content you simply don't like. However, if downzapping has a limited weight in the calculation of rewards, I think it could be a useful feature.

I'm imagining it working just like zapping top content works. You'd only get credit for downzapping content that other high trust people have downzapped.
It's basically a way to pay for community policing, which I think is an important element of organic content curation.

Ah, that makes much more sense now. I hadn't considered it from that perspective. Thanks for clarifying.
