That's possible. The only issue would be the mixing I mentioned. Serious comments often get joke replies and vice versa. But yes I would like to see that tried.

How about side-voting joke replies to serious comments. They all still exist in the same tree, but you would gain another dimension to sort/filter/display comments by.

You could actually moderate the discussion threads heavily, and then do only NSFW style moderating on the comments. But like i said, it does not solve the who monitors the monitor problem.
You would need some moderating, but it "could work".
Lots of unknowns, such as how much moderating, how do control moderators etc. Its not really a solution to the actual people "problem" but more a UI/ presentation solution to compensate both sides. Now, trolls will always exist, and will always try to crash the party, does not matter what you do.
