(a) follows from (c), and (c) is trivial to fix by anonymizing the comments before they are voted on. Way, way, waaay too much fanboyism is going on HN and selected few users get all their comments voted up regardless of the merit. Fix this and the rest will follow.

PS. I'm 3000+ karma, 3+ year HN user posting from public terminal in a hotel, hence the anon account. My apologies.

on that note, i wonder if completely anonymous would be interesting. what would it be like if there was no notion of identity at all?

what if you had reputation presented per comment, but no public identity?
