A point system to keep track of how many comments a user has facilitated. Encourage people to start discussion instead of just farming points.

For example, you make a submission and 10 comments are posted under it (not including yours), you get +10 Discussion Starter points (or whatever you want to call it).

Likewise, if you make a comment and 5 people comment under it (regardless of chain depth), you get +5 points.

Example:

[–] gaylord 1 point (+1|-0) 1 hour ago:
|   > I'm a faggot
|
|-- [–] picman 69 points (+69|-0) your mom ago:
|     > I too am a faggot
|
|---- [–] mrloozer 420 points (+420|-0) bang-oclock ago:
|        > I agree, I am in the faggot realm..
|
|-- [–] pmyb2 -200 points (+0|-200) who cares ago:
|     > I hate myself

Discussion Starter points:
1. gaylord = 3
2. picman = 1
3. mrloozer = 0
4. pmyb2 = 0

The only real comment chains I've seen tend to be two people bickering at each other.

How would that be handled?

Your own comments aren't counted. So you'll get a point when the other guy responds, but not when you respond.
