Any system is just going to be abused, regardless of what fixes you put in place. /List is a great solution and was highly touted by nearly everyone when it was announced. You will not stop pixel lust whatever you do to the system, someone is going to figure a way to get what they want.

Seems to me the abysmal drop rate is what causes abuse of screen sharing / days of listing. I'd say keep list as is, but for Green 2.0 perhaps do the following:

Say, just for example, that current manastone would be on the server for 6 months @ 5% drop rate (I don't know exact numbers). Implement manastone for only 2 months @ 25% drop rate. Adjust level requirements as needed, implement lifetime lockout of /list. Hopefully that keeps same amount of items entering the server.

Even the above would issue cries of abuse that you need to toon share to level up to get on list because of limited window of drops blah blah blah. One does not simply stop a neckbeard, they will always have an advantage over the masses.
