If you leave a match you started in, you get 20 kills subtracted from your lifetime KD rating.
The problem with that is there are too many mercs (like me) who couldn't give 2 f**** about our KDR. I'm a logi with a .82 KDR anyways, so this means nothing. +1 for variety, though.

Why worry about the whole "voting" mechanism in the first place? Just leave it at your initial thought. Finish 3 matches, +1 honor. Leave a match, -1 honor.
The higher your honor. the more rewards you receive. Every 1 honor is a + .25% bonus to ISK/SP rewards at the end of the match. So 4 honor points nets 1% bonus to ISK/SP, up to 25% bonus at a level 100 Honor. Negative honor has penalties but aren't nearly as harsh. Each -10 Honor is -1% ISK/SP up to a -10% at -100 honor. Of course, at -100 honor, you are never finishing a battle to get the rewards anyways so it becomes a moot point.
This basically mirrors the Loyalty ranks. Higher your honor, better your rewards. The #'s can be tweaked if this is too much or too little incentive to stay in matches.
*Edit* I also like the streaking idea. For every 10 matches consecutively finished, +2 bonus honor. For every 3 matches consecutively left, a penalty of an additional -2 Honor.

The point of downvoting is to encourage players to police for AFK. Should leaving battle return a negative effect, the rates of AFK would very likely increase.
I get what he's shooting for as well. The AFK'ers drive me nuts. I will switch to a Starter fit or a cheap heavy suit and spam attack you and die 15 times before AFKing. I might switch to Sniping, but that is a different conversation.
That is actually one part of my issue. The fact it is willy nilly and can be done to anyone. If someone sees me sniping, they automatically downvote me because "Git Gud POS Sniper." Maybe have something where it can only be at the end of battle, and someone can only downvote someone with less than 300 WP or something? Of course, if someone only has 125 WP but has a 2/17 KDR, he was trying at least. Can he still be downvoted? Therein is my biggest problem with this. I guess I have the old adage in my head: "Who will watch the watchers?" I just don't trust the community to be honest in this situation where it can have an actual impact on the player.
