Well, for the "rated list" I was imagining something where people could submit links and then vote on a 1-5 (or whatever) scale, without the ability to leave comments on those links. And, for that to happen, the site would have to have user accounts, and people could only rate a given link once.
I think the idea of such a list has some value -- sort of a more active, community-maintained equivalent to Miavir's story index. But, I suspect to really avoid the problem you're talking about, submitted links would have to be vetted by an editor before they appeared, so links whose only value would be mockability would never get on the page.
As for comments on stories, yes, it'd be quite possible -- I'd be expecting to start with weblog software like Textpattern (http://www.textpattern.com) and twist it to my own ends, but it's designed with the assumption of each post being a weblog entry with comments. On the flip side, I don't know if it's better to have the comments right there at the ends of stories (or pictures) or to have a more traditional web forum. (Of course, the two aren't mutually exclusive.)
