You'd need to limit the capacity to vote on credibility to people who are members of the community. If you haven't joined, you can't make a judgment about what is or isn't a good faith post, but your own post can be voted by members. Rather than being attached to just the user, it would probably be better if it were referenced to the user per community. Even so, it's essentially karma, and could probably be gamed.
Otherwise, you've just reinvented upvotes.
