Couldn't a platform like arxiv.org come up with a peer review system so they can be more than just preprints? Make it a full fledged open access platform for fully peer reviewed articles.

Also why are we still stuck in this shitty system where the Elselviers of the world are limiting access to our collective research?

That's exactly the goal of Peer Community In: you put your paper on some archive, you ask a "Recommender" to recommend the paper, they select reviewers and the lot, and they decide to recommend or not your paper after some iteration of the process (classical peer review I'd say). Then you can update your paper in a final version, with a kind of stamped version saying it was recommended by XXX (the peer review process is published along as well, I believe).
